Recently pardoned former national security adviser Michael Flynn appeared on Newsmax this Thursday night, and talked about the “military capabilities” President Trump allegedly has at his disposal to overturn the 2020 election results.
“There is no way in the world we are going to be able to move forward as a nation. He could immediately, on his order, seize every single one of these [voting machines], on his order,” Flynn said on the show Greg Kelly Reports.
“…within the swing states, if he wanted to, he could take military capabilities, and he could place those in states and basically rerun an election in each of those states,” he continued, adding that such an action is “not unprecedented.”
“These people are out there talking about martial law like it’s something that we’ve never done. Martial law has been instituted 64 times,” he said.
Flynn clarified that he’s not calling for any kind of military action. “We have a constitutional process … that has to be followed.”
Later in the interview, he accused Republicans of not doing enough to support Trump’s effort to reverse the election’s results.
“They’re all worried about Georgia,” he said. “… It’s a fake election — we can’t have another election on the same system. It’s a broken system.”
