(12,641 posts)He becomes a former president, who has no power over anyone. And our military will not show up at the WH to keep him there.

(12,641 posts)They know how the ending would be.
Thats another reason why it cannot be a close election. Only his hard core backers would insist he stay if he gets an asswhippin'.

(24,654 posts)to now open at noon on January 20, 2021. My parents, husband, and sister have been trying to come up with the perfect toast. My dad recently suggested, "fuck that idiot and best of luck to President Biden." That's the front runner at the moment.

The senate then went on to pass a resolution to such..it was posted here yesterday..cant find the link

(13,923 posts)He also said that presidents shouldnt appoint scotus justices in the final year of their terms.
He wont back a loser. But he will do anything possible to tip the scales and fudge a victory or obscure a loss.

(5,624 posts)Hes cheating. Hes been cheating for a while now, Mary Trump said. Hes cheating when he tells people that mail-in ballots are fraudulent somehow. Hes cheating when he started calling into question the legitimacy of the election before a vote was even cast. Hes cheating when he says if Joe Biden wins, its rigged . Hes also cheating when he tells people if we dont get the results on Nov. 3 ― which, by the way, during the pandemic would be ridiculous ― if we have to wait, that its also rigged, somehow.
