The orange tyrant won't go quietly

Let's take a moment away from the minute by minute "breaking news" to look at the 2020 election.

If Trump can't win or steal it, he will still be pResident for the following 2 1/2 months. We know that he'll spend much of that time ranting that the election was rigged and stolen from him. But, of far greater importance, he'll still be the one person who can order a launch of our nuclear weapons. And anyone who doesn't think he'd go that far, hasn't been paying attention for the past few years.

My guess is that the Joint Chiefs of Staff in the Pentagon have already anticipated this. Do they have a plan to ignore the orders of the "commander in chief?" Again, I'm guessing, but I don't think they'd allow one weapon to be launched.

This would give the creature a chance to claim that a military coup is taking place, declare martial law, and then refuse to give up his office for "the good of the country."

All of the above are just assumptions, but we know that there is nothing beyond the present inhabitant of the Oval Office. So don't be too quick to dismiss them, or any similar scenario.

Having said this, here's my guess as to what will actually occur. Trump will be defeated, he might refuse to vacate the White House, and he will be escorted out by the Secret Service, where each and every member has taken an oath to "... protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic."

There is, of course, another scenario. What if he "wins," or more likely steals the 2020 election? IMO, that would be the end of American democracy.

Thoughts? Opinions?

Oh, for ****'s face...

1. I think it's a scenario

People should be prepared for. You can bet Trump's gun-humping nasi base are.

3. He is also going to sic his nutcase worshippers on the rest of us and on Democratic politicians and members of the press who don't support him. Whatever happens, it is going to be a complete shitshow.

4. I think these warnings of yours should be taken TREMENDOUSLY seriously.

And yes, we absolutely should, indeed MUST, be ready for any asshole reaction/response that he might pull.

I seem to recall the DUmmies, in December 2016 and early January 2017, demanding that Saint Obama do those very things: Stay in office past his term limits "For the good of the country," throw out the election results on the grounds that a candidate the DUmmies didn't like won, and declare martial law in order to suppress any who might oppose him doing those things.
I guess those things would only be wrong if a Republican did them.

If Trump can't win or steal it...

Why do they bother with the "win" word when everyone knows automatically that a Trump victory would immediately be proclaimed as "he stole it"?  Just say "If Trump steals it...". Save yourself the extra typing.

Of course, Cyrano is a special kind of stupid, so I doubt he can even comprehend what I'm saying.

Are DU-folk back to this oft-recycled meme? If Trump loses in 2020, he'll leave the WH by mid January, 2021. Otherwise he'll leave the WH by mid January, 2025, a scenario DU-silliness like this makes quite likely.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.
