This is a LONG but good read from the Atlantic. You can also listen to it on SoundCloud (takes about an hour)

Excerpt from the article:

Let us not hedge about one thing. Donald Trump may win or lose, but he will never concede. Not under any circumstance. Not during the Interregnum and not afterward. If compelled in the end to vacate his office, Trump will insist from exile, as long as he draws breath, that the contest was rigged

The worst case, however, is not that Trump rejects the election outcome. The worst case is that he uses his power to prevent a decisive outcome against him. If Trump sheds all restraint, and if his Republican allies play the parts he assigns them, he could obstruct the emergence of a legally unambiguous victory for Biden in the Electoral College and then in Congress. He could prevent the formation of consensus about whether there is any outcome at all. He could seize on that uncertainty to hold on to power.

Trump’s state and national legal teams are already laying the groundwork for postelection maneuvers that would circumvent the results of the vote count in battleground states. Ambiguities in the Constitution and logic bombs in the Electoral Count Act make it possible to extend the dispute all the way to Inauguration Day, which would bring the nation to a precipice. The Twentieth Amendment is crystal clear that the president’s term in office “shall end” at noon on January 20, but two men could show up to be sworn in. One of them would arrive with all the tools and power of the presidency already in hand."

He has the tools to keep half the country from believing that he has lost in the event of anything other than a landslide.

Read this shyt. It's scary as fukk. Basically, the Republicans are going to do everything possible to suppress turnout to an insane degree, invalidate any ballots they don't like, and tie up every close result in legal challenges to the point that Biden would have to win by massive numbers in the necessary swing states to prevent shyt from going all to hell.

The Election That Could Break America


Ahh The Atlantic with another Donald Lex Luthor Trump article.

It's funny how many exceptions we make to promote fear of Trump. Take COVID away and he's just your basic small government, rich people welfare ass Republican. But, liberals got Black Folk so soft we SHOCKED at racism we been fighting for 400 years.

Again, I'm not gonna be scared of a dude that will be out of power Novemeber 4th, 2020 arrrrrrroound 7 pm.

If he loses he'll be forced to leave the house but will probably (most likely) cause noise in the media afterwards...I don't know why ppl keep fantasizing that if he loses there'll be some kind of call of duty gameplay action happening in front of the White House lawn :dead:

Exactly

:dahell:

It's the main reason I hate these Nazi comparisons.

These nikkas think he's Hitler....from the video games.

Nothing that happens will surprise me.

even him just legitimately winning the electoral college without fraud and manipulation wouldn’t surprise me with this piece of shyt country.

if he loses decisively his ego won’t allow him not to be a dikk and saying dangerous things but I’m hoping the idea of being in Florida golfing full time, starting a media group and scamming his supporters for the money he couldn’t get as a pretend businessman with daddy’s money sounds too appealing.

I think a lot may depend on stuff we don’t know about the NY investigation and if he’s really feeling the fear right now.

Don't be too dramatic. Plenty of countries have survived civil war and revived, including the good old USA.
:mjlol: yeah, go and ask the people in Syria, Yemen or Libya who are currently living through civil wars how that is working out for them. Afterwards talk to someone from the Balkans how the civil wars from the 90's and early 2000 are still affecting their societies. Countries like Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and El Salvador are still dealing with insane amounts of violence that is a remnant of civil wars that took place in the 80's. In Columbia, civil war started in the 1950's and there are areas of the country where it still continues.
He is playing a VERY stupid dangerous game...

Like I said in another thread, if he loses in November, he will be removed from office in January...

Any attempt to game or undermine the electorate is grounds for Civil War...

The country will burn before he is allowed to cheat himself a second term...
Bush jr. cheated himself into a first term do you remember anybody rusing up to remove him from office :yeshrug:

Thought it just means you don't believe in god

The point isn’t even about the transition of power. Trump has said that the Supreme Court will decide they election. That gives him a clear path to winning no matter what.

he’s been saying for MONTHS that the election will be rigged which his base is eating up. So it’s clear his plan is to dispute and litigate the results in enough states to put the result in the hands of the SCOTUS. That’s what’s gonna happen and Americans will do nothing. fukking depressing.

November to January is going to be a shytshow. And if there is a civil war from this it will not be the same as the last civil war. It will be like Libya,Syria and Yemen. There will be multiple factions fighting and radical forces tend to become more popular in times of conflict. The country would be ungovernable and it would effect everyone. If you live in a major city your water and food comes from the rural areas. These right wing cacs will attack water pumps and pipes. This means water shortages in cities. They will attack food trucks meaning your local bodega will not be stocked up with food. This means massive food shortages and shortages in medicine as well. The racist cacs in your local police force will defect to the right wing militias in the suburbs and rural areas. The cities will be facing police shortages and that means massive power vacuums in the cities. We aren't even talking about the economic effects. Once civil war happens this means the US dollar will not be the world reserve currency of the world. This will make shyt much worse. This means the dollar will collapse. So you will have a pandemic, civil war/political crisis, economic crisis and on top of that you will have a currency crisis ie currency collapse. Then the entire country collapses into apocalyptic violence. As I said before people may think this fukkery is fun but you will quickly regret it all. Civil war would be absolutely be the worst thing that can happen to a nation. That Atlantic article is really telling. Republicans are willing to push the country into the brink of total civil war to maintain power.

Wow...people are really dapping this.

Do you realize how oppressive it is to continue to spread this type of shyt...because The Atlantic said so...
