President Donald Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen on Wednesday said he fears that Trump will not peacefully relinquish the White House if he loses his reelection bid next year.
"I fear that if he loses the election in 2020, that there will never be a peaceful transition of power. And this is why I agreed to appear before you today," Cohen said of Trump.
? What can he do if he loses lol
He can just simply say that the elections were rigged and that he refuses to respect it lol
How about they shoot him for breaking into the oval office.
? What can he do if he loses lol
He’s already put the idea down that postal voting is insecure and blah blah
He’s got his excuse already. He can argue on that and then afaik it has go to recount.
If he does lose decisively, he will lose power and Biden can kick him out.
Nobody will be able to defend him.
If Trump were inclined to overstay his term, the levers of power work in favor of removal. Because the president immediately and automatically loses his constitutional authority upon expiration of his term or after removal through impeachment, he would lack the power to direct the U.S. Secret Service or other federal agents to protect him. He would likewise lose his power, as the commander in chief of the armed forces, to order a military response to defend him. In fact, the newly minted president would possess those presidential powers. If necessary, the successor could direct federal agents to forcibly remove Trump from the White House. Now a private citizen, Trump would no longer be immune from criminal prosecution, and could be arrested and charged with trespassing in the White House. While even former presidents enjoy Secret Service protection, agents presumably would not follow an illegal order to protect one from removal from office.

See the constitutional laws and s*** like that pretty much goes out the window when an individual has enough political power
If he were successful in convincing the republican party that the election was compromised, then there’s a possibility that he’d be able to retain power

That perhaps a faint possibility, but unless he was correct in this assertion the reality would be that over half of voters (based on last time 60mil+) would have voted against him, and I doubt any of those people would buy that kinda story without insanely concrete evidence.
So practically what could he do - given what’s happened over the last couple of weeks you could only imagine that protests against this would be at least 10x worse, so how would he feasibly be able to stick it out beyond a couple of weeks?
If he gets back on tv and they allow his rally’s and debates with Biden he ain’t losing Biden gonna f*** up so bad
I’m pretty sure his bum ass is getting re-elected
Ivanka will run in 2024
Ivanka will be like Hillary. im hopin for pence
I’m pretty sure his bum ass is getting re-elected
Ivanka will run in 2024
His bum ass would not win if the election was tomorrow. About 70% of the country completely turned against him after the photo op with the bible.
But knowing Biden and the fact he sucks ass at public speaking now, he'd get utterly destroyed in the debates.
The petty part of me wants to see that happen so badly, it would really reinforcement how much of a baby he really is.
