They’re all just placating Trump because he controls their futures. Couple mean tweets by him could sink Republicans totally. They will lick his boots, but they aren’t going to try a legit coup for him and literally risk their lives.
Their only shot was the supreme court giving them the victory. They just can’t on their own just decide to declare Trump the winner lol. And its pretty clear the court is not going to do that, there are no legit lawsuits that could even make it to them.
Wonder if Trump eventually feels betrayed by the courts and lashes out.
That said I do think there will be a lot of right wing terrorism mostly perpetrated by small groups or single gunman, but it won’t be an organized effort.
He will. He’s practically frothing at the mouth over Brian Kemp and Stacey Abrahms being in collusion. He’s 100% gonna say that elections don’t matter if it’s rigged.
I don’t see an event coming that will trigger a concession. The vote of the electoral college probably won’t do it. Losing all the court challenges won’t do it. I don’t foresee him randomly coming to his senses. So what’s going to keep him from declaring victory and staying in the White House as long as possible? I assume he’ll stay until January 20th at noon. Maybe the Secret Service convinces him to leave a few hours earlier on the pretense that they’re just taking him on a golf outing.
They should just change the locks on the WH while he’s out golfing and throw all his stuff out on the yard. Have the municipal sheriff greet him on his return.
Yea that transition is gonna be interesting. You know Donny Dum Dum won’t allow people to pack or associate with Biden. Plus Biden is gonna have to fumigate the White House before moving in.
Counterpoint: He has twice in the last two days come really close to accidentally admitting Biden won. He’s not doing jack shit right now except tweeting. Lone wolf violence is possible, but an overt coup? That seems really really really unlikely at this point.
The videos posted about the EC counting procedure reminded me that objections can be raised if one Rep and one Sen objects. I wonder if Trump will clear that hurdle. 25%?
For the derps on my social media, there isn’t one of them that believes that Trump won’t be president on 1/20/21. They absolutely have not accepted the Trump loss. They absolutely 100% believe that Trump is going to prevail in court or when the secret about dominion voting machines comes out.
The electoral votes are certified on what, Dec 14? Thats when I figure the shit hits the fan.
For the Trump supporters, this is almost better than him just winning. When he’s still President on 1/21/21, it will be almost like a biblical prophecy.
Again, this is a cult. Cults have managed to get their followers to suicide themselves while awaiting the spaceship to carry them off or whatever the fuck.
Fucking the Bundy’s managed to get a few dozen assholes to hole themselves up in a federal building and have a standoff with federal officers and get a couple of themselves killed.
You guys don’t think that out of the million or whatever proud boys folks there aren’t a few thousand that can be drummed up to start shooting? I"m guessing if you’re a proud boy there’s already a 90% chance you have a bunch of pent up sexual frustration that is waiting to get out. This looks like a way to do it.
I’m still shook, and I still think there’s a good batch of violence to come.
I know a Proud Boy. He brags about having over 500K rounds of ammo. He’s been stocking up for years. He’s a business owner and employs about 10 people. He has admitted that his life will not change with Biden being President. He ain’t gonna do shit. The vast majority of Trump supporters live sheltered lives where they have the convenience to whine about things they don’t like. 99.99% of them aren’t going to do something that will intentionally make their own lives harder. Yes, there will be random nutjobs making mayhem but most are cowards.
