    If someone could answer, I would love to know what the plan is when Biden wins the election but Trump just decides to not accept the results and take power by force? What’s the plan when the cops, the courts, and the military don’t stop him? I truly, truly hope the answers are not “vote” or “just accept it”.

      what’s wrong with just accepting it? capital did fine under trump’s first presidency, why should they worry? either one of these decomposing mummies would be fine in the big chair.

      In 2020 this was possible because Trump was president at the time so he had power. It did not happen. After throwing a tantrum Trump didn’t try to order the government to defend him, just his jan6 mob.

      Right now Trump is not president so he cannot abuse powers to try what he didn’t try back then.

      Well fortunately the joint chiefs of staff understand their oath is to the constitution. They wouldn’t have helped on Jan 6 and they absolutely won’t help an agitator try a coup on the dutifully elected president of the United States.

      Cops are another story but highly doubt they’d try to stand up to the national guard let alone the military.
