Of course they would back Biden over Trump, since he has a long history of ardently suporting the Miltary Industrial Complex.

Military industrial interests are a lot more strategic than smear politics. They're also smarter than a guy who ignores FSB hit jobs like those of Alexei Navalny.

I don't think there's any chance of that happening.

If Trump wins a fair election but Democrats declare Biden the winner after engaging in mail fraud and other voter fraud, Trump needs to remain in office as the lawfully elected president until the courts confirm he won.

It would be far worse to surrender to a coup.

^^^^
All the Baltic states and Belarus voluntarily but yet involuntarily entered the Soviet Union by elections that were rigged.They by popular vote joined the USSR but the vote was fixed by the Russians.

I understand your concern but is there evidence that Biden will fix the election?

Sadly it often takes history to learn the truth of life,the acceptance of a unjust reality is often inevitable.

So no Trump should give up power if he loses.
