The sinister national emergency will be a poorly or completely unsupported declaration about immigration something something. That will be used as a pretext for troops potentially being called on to do things none of them ever signed up to do. In a couple years, there could be a declaration of martial law - again about as bogus as a football bat with a $3 bill taped to it - and that in turn be used as the pretext to stay in power.
The difference between Zelenskyy declaring martial law (and his approval rating is very, very high - no viable potential opposition candidate in Ukraine is even close to being competitive) and the Cheeto doing so is that there's a war in Ukraine, but there's no war between Oceania and Eastasia.
