It smells really bad. <br /><br />President Elect Biden is something of an optimist and is currently taking the high road, but I do believe he has contingency plans in case Trump moves. He has been in politics too long with too much experience. <br /><br />Lame Duck President Trump will probably try to have Republican legislatures appoint their own electors, contra to the will of the voters. I hope Republicans will resist. If they don't, I am pretty sure Biden has a plan.<br /><br />That said, it could get ugly. A lot will depend on where the military stands.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604414.post-83385294174716519332020-11-10T23:49:57.640-05:002020-11-10T23:49:57.640-05:00Barr, too, met with McConnell.

What pretext could be used? Can you say a bit more about Trump's 'army' and how regular forces might be tricked or forced into participating. Most Trump followers now accept that they can't win democratically but how many are prepared to support a coup and by what means? Trump will destroy everything he can on the way out the door. But I don't see the mechanics of how he could actually steal government. Any thoughts?frednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604414.post-56625786863022624302020-11-10T21:55:23.895-05:002020-11-10T21:55:23.895-05:00Nothing would surprise me at this point. all he ne...Nothing would surprise me at this point. all he needs to find is one real case of voter fraud, and R's belief in it of '20 election will jump from 70% to 90%. Big flags were Mexico and Russia saying they would wait. MAGA has the guns on the streets, and Trump has the police on his side. It's really only the Pentagon that could stop him.Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16045139174989419078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604414.post-31755291750052549702020-11-10T20:54:04.609-05:002020-11-10T20:54:04.609-05:00Maybe he isn't elevating these people -- he is...Maybe he isn't elevating these people -- he is paying them off for their service by giving them permanent jobs.<br /><br />Trump is 74 and in poor health.

It seems mysterious. Has anyone else seen a similar pattern? It would make sense to have a means of communication amongst themselves if something is coming up. They whine and whine about Facebook and Twitter being so-called liberal, but really they have total freedom of communication. They want to keep something secret obviously.BobNPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10568132982574278444noreply@blogger.com
