just a campaign stunt. I can't believe how many otherwise intelligent people think this is just "a campaign stunt."

I even heard a U.S. Senator say this the other day, probably to somehow make it seem less threatening because he admitted there was really nothing he could do about it.

He has another think coming

His generals have been turning against him. Real US soldiers fighting for the Constitution will not allow it. Once Biden is elected he will be in charge of the real military. John Roberts is not going to say storm troopers are Constitutional.

taking to our heels. Trump's threats are real, that he's making them at least is real, but we have a lot of strengths that probably already mean Trump's desperation dreams are actually impossible.

Our strengths include those many millions of citizens who, if the big orange coward actually summoned up the guts to try it, would be far angrier than afraid.

It’s all part of the plan. If the election is close, he will claim it was rigged and himself the victor. Millions will protest and his goons will be waiting. He’s got a majority on the SCOTUS. What could go wrong?

ETA: I also believe Biden will ultimately be our president but it is going to be a shit show between now and then.
