Michigan Attorney General worries Trump won’t accept loss to Harris: If Trump had trouble conceding to an older White man, he ‘is definitely not going to be OK’ losing to a younger Black woman
If Donald Trump had trouble conceding to Joe Biden, Michigan’s Dana Nessel said, he ‘is definitely not going to be OK’ losing to someone who’s not an old White man.
Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel worries that former President Donald Trump may not accept the results of the upcoming general election if he loses — in part because of whom he might lose to.
“My belief is this: If Donald Trump had such a difficult time conceding that he lost to another older White man, he is definitely not going to be OK in the event that he loses a presidential election to a younger Black woman,” Nessel told reporters Monday, referencing Vice President Kamala Harris’ expected place at the top of the Democratic ticket. “And I am very concerned about what plans he and his allies might have to be disruptive to the 2024 election.”

“He’s already said if he doesn’t win, it’s because it was stolen. And I mean, that is so frightening — ‘Either I win, or it’s not fair,’” she said.
You're viewing a single thread.
He's got nothing to concede.
Kamala and the Dems are already in the White House, and Biden is Commander in Chief until Kamala is inaugurated.Fatty McFelon has nothing.
He has a cult and the House of Representatives. Let's not downplay the threat these nuts pose
Against the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces and Intelligence/surveilance of the world's #1 superpower?
How do the losers organize and strategize against that?
The 'war' would last a few hours.
And, as a prosecutor, she's likely vicious enough to use available assets.
You are thinking of the US military and intelligence community as far more monolithic than it is. Republicans will claim Harris is an illegitimate administration, and tons of federal employees might go along with it (nevermind that SCOTUS could very well side with Trump, giving them a "legitimate" legal claim to their bullshit).
Also, deploying troops inside the US would require an act of Congress to be legal, which makes the military strength far less relevant.
And this isn't even beginning to touch on the sheer impossibility of fighting an insurgency inside your own borders.
The problem isn't Trump, per se, but the increasingly violent alt right.
The only way our democracy is preserved is Trump being arrested, tried, and sentenced for J6.
And since that ain't happening, I'm convinced we'll see a civil war within the next 4 years.
The problem is "Project 2025"... has already been announced to be renamed "Project 2029" if Trump doesn't win.
As long as that's the plan, any Republican win is going to severely erode any remaining US democracy.
