One of the Democrats’ more lunatic themes is their insistence that if President Trump loses the election, he likely will refuse to leave office, in effect staging a coup. Most recently the claim was made by Bernie Sanders. Politico headlined: “Sanders: America must be prepared for when Trump refuses to leave office.” Link.
There's little doubt that at least part of this is projection. The Democrats have been trying to stage a slow motion coup since Trump was elected. They don't have the balls to do something as audacious as refusing to leave office, but they can see that Trump has the courage to do something like that if he was inclined to do so.

But there is nothing that Trump has done in office that would suggest that he would break the law that way. He has always followed the law and stayed within his authority in his executive actions. All of his actions are predicated on the basis of legal council. Even the celebration he held in the White House Lawn for the RNC was cleared with the election commission before hand.

So don't worry, dems. If you manage to beat Trump he will leave quietly. Or maybe not quietly but legally at least.
 
Why is it so crazy to think he may try it?

Have things not been crazy enough for you yet?

With Trump there is only one constant, tomorrow WILL be worse.

So stay tuned and buckle up.

I can see that the Democrats are pretty crazy. Trump says crazy things, but what he does is something else.

Based on things he has said. Fir example, that his supporters woukd demand that he stay on after 2 terms. That he would seek a third term. That President fir life is something we should have in America. He said he may not accept the election results.

Strange how his most ardent supporters don't actually listen to anything he says. Mostly they take their own opinions and pretend that he also supports it.

During the election 4 years ago, you all said Trump was great because he said what he meant. Now you say he doesn't mean what he said

Undermining democracy and sowing doubt in the election process and using the government for his own benefit to get elected isn't enough, huh?

If he loses, he's not going to leave office peacefully...that's just a given based on his nasty, subhuman, corrupt, un-American character.

It’s “crazy” because it’s been Dems who have tried undermining the results of the last election.

Good grief, the irony.

In Trump's view losing the election would make him a Loser and a Sucker, and he's not going to handle that well.

Has Michael Cohen become a democrat? He does not believe Trump will calmly walk away, and who knows Trump's soul better than Michael Cohen, his fixer.

Like what:
Try to throw Millions of Americans off their health Insurance Plan during a Pandemic,
Try to kill off DACA,
Try to kill off SS,
Try to kill off Medicare,
Try to kill off Medicaid,
Alienate all our Military and Trade partners,
Screw up handling the Pandemic which is still raging across this Nation,
Disrespect all Past and Present members of the Armed Services,
Something else like that?
No thanks I will pass and hire someone better.

Yup, losing would make Trump a loser alright.

Cohen was a democrat before Trump ran for office...and so was Trump.

I think Cohen knows Trump better than most...and he's pretty much saying the same thing as Trump's sister and nearly everyone else who has crossed his path.
 
Oh, yes, some crazed Dems are just talking to be talking.

Their nonsense about his refusing to leave the Executive Mansion is just a sign of Dem hysteria.

In fact, he will be delighted to leave.

This country is becoming impossible to govern, for many people are now completely out of bounds.

I expect this nation to limp along for some more decades and then collapse at the beginning of the 21st century.

Trump undermined himself with his words and actions. Not that you care about details like that.

Anything would be better that what we have had the last 4 years. Trump has no idea how to govern and that could be why you say it is impossible. For him it is like speaking a foreign language. We all hope we are wrong about Trump being a sore loser but his history says he is. He was even a sore winner in 2016, by falsely claiming his loss of the popular vote was because of voter fraud and then lying about the crowd at his inauguration.

Ah. Victim mentality man is here, ready to defend a guy who would screw you out of your entire life savings if he ever had the chance.

Dems and Trump haters LOVE their conspiracy theories.

That and he doesn't want to lose presidential immunity that he is currently hiding behind that is the only think keeping him out of jail.

You sound like he's already lost and hoping that he doesn't make a scene. lol
