Cohen: if Trump loses in 2020 'there will never be a peaceful transition of power'

[Soph0571]

Cohen in his closing remarks...

Buckle up my loves - this is going to get even crazier than it is right now

[onecaliberal]

1. That is my worst fear. They'll have to drug him and forcefully remove him.

[LiberalFighter]

12. If that is needed then we will need to do it.

[Blue Owl]

2. Tough fucking shit then. No more criminals in the White House.

Whatever it takes.

[onecaliberal]

14. Agree.

[bluestarone]

3. SCARY for sure

And probably TRUE!

[superpatriotman]

4. My butt puckered a little bit at that statement

But then I remembered that we are legion.

[Soph0571]

6. We are grand, and we know....

[dhill926]

5. A million people with torches and pitchforks...

might get it done...

[spanone]

7. If he doesn't win, he'll claim every kind of fraud possible & throw it to his Supreme Court...

then who knows.....those were chilling words

[musicblind]

16. John Roberts would never.

Roberts might do a lot of things, but he would not do that.

[CDerekGo]

8. I'm hoping

that the orange turd will either

A: get Impeached

B: Resign

C: DIE!

[TreasonousBastard]

9. Sounds like a bit of exaggeration. We as a nation are still strong enough...

to maintain the peaceful transfer of power.

Even the nuttiest of the teabaggers and other crazies can't take down the entire US government.

7 Days in May was just a movie.

It Can't Happen Here was just a book.

1984, though...

10. We have a lot of problems. Trump may even refuse to cede power.

But I don’t think he will succeed. Despite all our country’s problems, there are enough people in positions of power that if he does attempt that, he will be quickly thrown out on his ass and likely imprisoned.

Edit to add: I think it is far more likely he engages Russia and other hostile nations to take even more insidious action in order to rig the 2020 election. And then he will again obstruct and rig the inevitable investigations.


I hope age and obesity catch him sooner rather than later.

11. If Trump looses the 2020 election,

when the new President takes the oath of office, the loyalties of the Secret Service immediately shift to the new President. If need be, the Secret Service will drag Trump from the White House in cuffs.

Everyone in federal service - the Secret Service, US Marshals, the military, etc. - take an oath to defend the Constitution. They can be counted on to comply with their oaths.

[LiberalFighter]

13. I would love to see a wagon nearby with a cage holding Trump.

While the next President is sworn in.

[DesertRat]

15. Bill Maher has been saying this for awhile now

But it's really scary coming from Cohen who knows the dotard so well.

[musicblind]

17. Trump might try, but he would not succeed.

The bigger danger is that people with NPD often try to take as many people down with them.

School shooter E*** H***** is a prime example.

[Talitha]

18. As soon as the 2020 results are in and Traitor-Tot KNOWS he lost,

Invoke the 25th amendment and have Pence take over till the January inaugaration day.

If Pence goes berzerk too, then do the same thing and then swear Nancy in as President.

Geeze, it'll be SO NICE to have an adult in the White House again!
