Sad that this isn’t even really news. He did it last time and he’s doing the exact same thing this time. You’ve just got to wonder what the plan is this time given he’s in a weaker position to steal it now that he’s not President and he failed miserably last time.

He has sentencing later this month so I think he'll keep pretty quiet until then. There may be unrest, but it will likely be smaller and more localised rather than in DC.

 

When he loses, I expect he'll be out of the country before inauguration day, and very possibly before his sentencing.

Is pretty hilarious that they’re essentially gaslighting their base and making the loss even more crushing, but then it’s all to feed in to the rigged election story and appease Trump. 

 

Yeah, this stresses me out. Trump knows it's all part of his populist/fascist playbook, but a huge amount of americans really seem to believe this sh*t. It's playing with fire.

Doesn't have the same civil war uprising theme as last time, the militias don't seem as obviously prominent as before. It feels more like he'll try/fail the legal challenge route and drag it out as long as possible.

I really hope you're right, that would be a good result all round. I can imagine a lot of attention though given to the 'true president in exile' narrative but I just can't see the chance of a coup in the US especially given the number of generals, Cheney etc coming out against him. Hilarious if he went into exile in Russia.

 

That said, it's easy to forget the US is a pretty young country and perhaps now is the time he feels he can break the system and rule unfettered with the encouragement of half of the country...

Might have to change my mind at this rate.

I think he was signalling that the microphone stand is too low, but then somehow turned that in to full on deep throating the thing.

I’m sure most people have seen this by now but Michael Moore has put his Trump 2016 victory documentary Fahrenheit 11/9 up on Youtube free to watch. Giving it a rewatch now:
