They're pretty much saying it now, but soon they'll literally just say "Any elections won by democrats are illegitimate" and then they'll try to convince their supporters that a 1 party system is the only way they can save the country from the evil socialist's as they continue their march towards a wannabe dictatorship.
 
Either he knows he faces criminal charges once he is out of the White House or he desperately needs the money from all those morons donating.

But he won't get away with it no matter how hard he tries. That would result in civil war
I was agreeing with everything but the last sentence. He honestly doesn't care one bit about the country and neither do a large percentage of the people that follow him.

I was referring to the courts and Congress not letting him get away with it. Too much unrest would follow (violent protests, union strikes, economic unrest, etc)
But the Republican senators are really pushing me to start to doubt that theory

TBF this isnt strictly speaking true - they do care (deeply) about the country, it’s just they don’t consider “the Libs” / “the left” / the coastal elites or however as being part of that country. They are the other, the traitorous elements etc. and this is something that politicians, ministers and so on have stoked for decades.

It’s a more up to date version of the same belief that many in the South held / hold, who managed to be both genuinely God-fearing Christian people as well as owning slaves (and later maltreating African-Americans) for the simple reason that they didn’t recognise them as people (or at its most benign now “part of our community”)
