Drumpf would throw the temper tantrum of the century. But he is a two-year old, so that is to be expected.

(All apologies to actual two-year-olds. They are all intellectually light years ahead of the current resident of the White House.)

Just watch. Trump will resign to have someone pardon him like Ford pardoned Nixon.

No doubt about it and he probably has enough about the VP to make sure he gets that pardon. And, BTW: he will pardon everyone associated with his administration on his way out too.

Just hope he is forced stay in the country to face justice in New York .

Like having Russia's Putin create a national disaster by cyber attacking us to use for him to claim a national emergency with , then declare martial law , and to bypass Congress with. Then he could call off the election, or announce they are being eliminated claiming corruption was involved , falsely , by the Democrats. He and Putin will not stand by and allow this to happen knowing they'll lose out, so expect them to pull off something for him against us causing mass chaos and disruptions. Trump also knows he's looking at prison if he does nothing before this election to stop it.

Ask him if Trump is less of a pussy. Ask him if Obama being a pussy, like he said he was, was better than the crazy fuck we have in the White House.

I don’t care what he says.

But Trumps main anger will be at the Republican Party for letting him down. From Sessions to Cohen, we have seen how Trump reacts to those he feels have not been loyal. He would go on full scale attack, revealing party and personal secrets, crimes and shame.

I would like him to live a long and miserable life in prison, but I don't really see how the republicans can allow him to leave office alive

Trump has been out there predicting and condoning this crap for months. It was one of my earlier eye opener “I can’t believe that this is presidential material” moments - the President of the United States of America proclaiming civil unrest if he doesn’t get re-elected. What a god damned idiot. His distorted, maniacal and convoluted ego should be one of many valid reasons for impeachment - and the quicker the better.

You haven’t heard the last of this stupid blabbering on his part. With the election getting closer, he’s got no choice but to rally his uneducated, gun toting, bible thumping, toothless followers to incite violence if he is not re-elected, a thought that makes me want to vomit.

Donald Trump is a menace to society, Democracy, and all that America once represented.

the lame duck period will be extremely dangerous for our country. It will not just be about what Trump will do, it might also involve Trump-hooligans. Trump will claim the election was rigged and call on them to rise up (violence).

Ah ha... not declaring that elections must be secured will allow him to claim the election was rigged.

NOT DECLARING THAT ELECTIONS MUST BE SECURED WILL ALLOW HIM TO CLAIM THE ELECTION WAS RIGGED.
