Ok, as we all know Pelosi dropped a big hint the other night about the possibility of a future president using his national emergency declaration powers to address the so called gun violence problem. Many say that the president cannot, even temporarily, remove the rights of citizens given to them by the Constitution, more importantly the specific BOR amendments. However, they do say immigration is clearly within the realm of him addressing. So, I guess my question is, if a president did supposedly ban literally everything and did a defacto removal of the second amendment, would that ban/removal of a key right be in place until it was settled in the courts? Like I am trying to figure out if this is even a possibility or just fear mongering and wishful thinking on Pelosi’s side? With that being said, it doesn’t really seem like many of them hold the Constitution in high regards anyways, so how much of a deterrent is it really?
