Kamala Harris is going to win the Presidency, Total Weirdo Trump is going to claim it was stolen, and...

then what happens next?

Before tonight's absolute farce of a debate, where Trump will claim Kamala Harris isn't black and is responsible for Haitians eating cats in Ohio and Venezuela annexing Colorado, let's understand that even with rampant Republican election interference and voter suppression Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are going to win the popular vote by 10,000,000+ votes and the Electoral College handily (North Carolina and Florida are going to go Harris and Walz)...

This is not a Doom post or a prediction, I'm following the sequence of events that is going to happen in November; an overwhelming Harris/Walz victory, followed by senile traitor Trump declaring it was rigged and stolen and... 

And then... I genuinely wonder what happens next? 

Foruntately, Total Weirdo Trump is not in charge of the Executive Branch as he was after losing in 2020 and leading up to his attempt to overthrow the United States Government on Jan6th 2021.  Unfortunately, the Republican traitors learned many lessons from the attempted Coup d'etat in 2021.

Certainly, the Supremacist Court is more nakedly Partisan and overtly Fascist than it was back in 2000.  But, while all they had to do then was stop the count in Jeb Bush's state to give W(orst POTUS Ever) the election, this year just as in 2020, they'll be facing an overwhelming rejection of Trump by both popular vote and the archaic Constitutional rules.  Will the Six Supremacist Injustices really have the gall and temerity to state "Nope, Trump wins 6-3."  I find this highly unlikely and don't believe we will see a repeat of 2000.

But, we've got a hint of what Trump will argue with the latest polls, including Nate Silver's vaunted 538 Poll, and the NYT poll showing Trump ahead.  I can't outright say these are meaningless but, the polls haven't accurately predicted anything since and including 2016.  Trump was crushed in 2020. No Red Wave occurred in 2022.  Every special election, even those in hard rightwing states, have not gone the Republicans way despite the "polls".  Now, look Faux News and Trump are going to claim The Polls on September 10!!!  It shows me way up, Trump will say, as Faux News bold giant headline declares Trump has a 64% Chance of winning the Electoral College!!! And as everyone knows 64% of the time it works... every time...

But, when reality sets in and Harris/Walz win a crushing victory this November then Trump is going to take every opportunity to claim the Election was Stolen and most likely, with his current rapid descent into syphilitic senility overtly call for the Overthrow of the United States.

"You can do anything.  The President has such
power.  It does.  Such Power."
Trump call for a Civil War is likely to go unheeded.   The more dangerous scheme are the Bureaucratic Coup attempts that multiple independent journalists, have pointed out the apparent scheme Republicans are likely to use, involving delaying the vote count in one or more states, lawsuits to get Democratic ballots thrown out, and the hopes they can pull off the House of Representatives delegation vote to secure the election.

There are some local MAGA traitors who are thinking of throwing out election results under their control, for example the Georgia 3 Trump has mentioned by name, and there are numerous other MAGA turncoats embedded waiting for the chance to act.  But, their efforts are more of a catalyst of getting a qualified authority to claim the election is invalid and not the ability to get the election results thrown out in favor Trump themselves.

Remember Republicans are naturally cowards.  Like Trump they call for something to be done and expect/hope the other person does the dirty work (and thus gets the blame) while they swoop in to scoop up the spoils.  I think when Republicans, from local, State, the House, Senate, State and Federal Courts, try to fuck with the election results none of them are going to have the gall or evil courage to put their name down as overthrowing the United States.  Remember those that did Jan 6th were hung out to dry by Trump and his mouth noises towards pardoning them after he assumes power are really designed to convince the new crop of rightwing domestic terrorists to engage in crimes to help him into power.

The questions are: who amongst the Right will be the first to declare Trump the Winner in the face of evidence and who will go along willingly and who will go along out of fear/desperation?  Or will it happen at all?
