Trump has fallen so far mentally, especially listening to whack jobs like Michael Flynn, not even Rudy Giuliani is onboard with the martial law idea.
Yet the GOP will do nothing about it. VP Michael Pence is leaving town during the time Congress certifies the vote, so no 25th Amendment will be invoked. That amendment was put in there because of people like Trump who clearly can't do the job of president.
And speaking of maniacs, My Pillow founder and CEO Mike Lindell is onboard for a martial law declaration by his hero Trump. The military is not onboard with it, however.
Finally, some maniacs on Parler are organizing a "million militia march" on Washington January 6. Not likely much is going to happen then, either.
Back to Trump, there is no doubt at all he is clinically insane. And no, it is not an act.
Most of Trump’s advisers reportedly opposed the special counsel idea, including Rudy Giuliani, the president’s personal attorney who became the face of Trump’s flailing post-election legal battle. White House counsel Pat Cipollone and Chief of Staff Mark Meadows “repeatedly and aggressively pushed back on the ideas being proposed, which went beyond the special counsel idea” and Cipollone told Trump “there was no constitutional authority for what was being discussed,” the Times reports. At one point in the meeting, Trump apparently asked about Powell receiving security clearances to conduct her work, even as the president’s outgoing attorney general, William Barr, said the Justice Department has investigated found no evidence of election-altering fraud.
As others in the room pointed out Powell’s failure thus far to support her fraud claims with verifiable evidence, the attorney “accused other Trump advisers of being quitters,” according to the Times. Another reported idea weighed during Friday’s meeting was an executive order to seize voting machines to examine them for alleged fraud, after Giuliani separately asked the Department of Homeland Security to do so earlier in the week—apparently to no avail, according to the Times, as he was told the department does not have such authority.
Sen. Mitt Romney shot down the president's last-ditch efforts overturn the election during an appearance Sunday on CNN’s State of the Union. “It’s not going to happen. That’s going nowhere,” Romney said. “I understand the president is casting about, trying to find some way to have a different result than the one that was delivered by the American people. It’s really sad in a lot of respects and embarrassing.”

Embarrassing doesn't begin to describe it. Trump is batshit crazy and in a sane world, he would have been removed from the presidency a long time ago.
