Trump doesn't want to leave...

If he does this then he is no longer president. He is a wannabe dictator.

I fear that he might use the Proud Boys in this, establishing a secondary military.

This makes the claim that he is the leader of the 'free world' an absolute joke.

I'd like to avoid ableist language as a lot of leftists I know have been debating this as either 'he won't do this cos he isn't a lunatic' or 'he's having a meltdown'. No. He is mentally stable and neurotypical. If he does this then it will be a choice on his part.

This amusing predictive scenario has been playing since 9 Nov 16.

It's too bad it will expire in 74 days.

Of course after that, it can still be predicted he will be raising a secret army to take over the US.

Along with the Proud Boys he has Putin and the Russian military and Russia's nukes to back him up.

If we are not lucky Trump will stage a military coup.

If we are lucky Trump will finally concede.

But his concession speech will have about THIS level of eloquence (move it up to about four minutes into the program):

Any chance he makes enough of an ass of himself that it hurts his support among his base?

Maybe Trump is having similar thoughts to those of Hitler in those last moments in the Bunker in Berlin: "the German people are not worthy of me".

Maybe Trump will have a change of heart about wanting to grip on to the presidency because... he will decide that "the American people are just not worthy of me".




And if I were in the Oval Office with him I would ...not argue that with him. In fact I would say...

While some anti Trumpers are celebrating his defeat IMHO we are entering the most dangerous part of his presidency. He has nothing to lose and will act accordingly.

IMHO:
If he refuses to leave I believe the secret service will escort him out. While that is necessary because if Trump gets away with it the constitution is worthless, it is a necessary hell. That will make him a martyr and that is when you will really see the violent reaction that has been predicted.

What happens if he can get 50,000 or so of his supporters some armed but also some children and babies to surround the White House and not let the Secret Service out? I would not want to be Biden then. His choices would be do nothing and bye bye constitution or take them up on their dare and kill a boatload of civilians.


I can envision Trump and his minions acting like a retreating army and destroying anything that could be used to help the Biden administration and avoid their own prosecution.

Another huge problem is that until January 20th he is still commander in chief and still has the authority to do things I don’t want to think about.

The best option is for him to flee the country and find asylum somewhere. That is not a good option as it means he escaped the legal consequences for any crimes he has committed. But MAYBE the optics of him running away would show his most cultlike supporters he his not the macho superstar they think he is.

The White House is not important. Biden becomes President at the inauguration. If Trump did somehow raise a militia and barricade himself in, and the Secret Service and the military decided it wasn’t their job to remove him... Joe Biden would still be President, and could carry out all the duties of the President. He could just work out of a different office. He doesn’t have to be sat in the Oval Office to push a special button, the power of the presidency transfers to him when he is inaugurated.

Kick the squatter to the curb with the trash.

... they can easily lure him out by claiming that there is a Trump rally in Utqiagvik (the northernmost town of Alaska), and that Trump is invited to a joint grizzly bear hunt with a bare-chested Vladimir Putin afterwards.

He won't be able to resist the temptation...

Don’t forget all you can eat Big Macs.
