Fiendish Thingy

4. Don't be trolled and don't buy the mythology that Trump is omnipotent and invincible

And most importantly, don’t spread defeatism and Doomerism- there are enough daily atrocities to resist and fight against without falling for made up shit.

The following facts will unfold:

SCOTUS, whose loyalty is to their ideology, and not to Trump the man, will not permanently relinquish their power and rule that 2=3.

Trump will not be on the ballot in any state in 2028.

Trump will not be the republican nominee in 2028 (remember, there are dozens of republicans waiting for their shot)

States will hold 2028 elections as scheduled, and send their slates of electors to congress.

On January 20, 2029 a new president and VP, neither named Trump, will be inaugurated. If for some reason, congress fails in its duty to certify the EV’s, an acting president will be sworn in following the line of succession starting with the speaker.

The only thing preventing these facts from unfolding would be a successful military coup toppling the government, which would require thousands of service members to commit multiple acts of treason, without resistance from the rest of the military, the courts, the congress or the people.

If I am wrong about these facts unfolding, feel free to post an “I told You so!” thread on January 21, 2029.
