Agreed, TFG will do whatever it takes to stay in the race. Even if an indictment or two comes his way, they will be too late and I am certain he will mobilize the crazies. Words like deep state, elections, fraud will be slung from MAL with regularity and trumpeted by Faux and I don't believe they will dump him yet since his cult is their base audience.

Speaking of mobilized crazies... It would be amusing to see the MAGA maniacs trying to blockade the entrance of MAL to keep the feds from hauling his ass away.

It is also a good possibility that the old guard in the party will foolishly thinking once again....can control Trump.

Accepting him at the top of the ticket and have their guy as VP.


This time if Trump walks into the oval office.... he will very quickly remove and replace centralizing power. He will be full of petty vengeful rage.

But will that old guard, after three losing elections, still want to play ball? The only reason they were with TFG in the first place was because he could bring the votes. If he can no longer get them the votes he is of no use to them.

It's more been that he could take away votes. Many figured they couldn't get past the primary without him.

He can and will get them the votes, but they are no longer enough to win elections. While the Frightwing has been screaming election fraud, the unintended consequence is they cannot cheat either.

Karizona is at it again, not claiming election fraud but close enough.

Republicans in one Arizona county refuse to certify election results

Quote:
Nov 28 - Republican officials who have embraced voter fraud theories resisted certifying the midterm election results in one Arizona county on Monday, defying a state deadline and setting the stage for a legal battle.

In Cochise County, a conservative stronghold in southeastern Arizona, the two Republican members of the three-person board of supervisors voted to postpone certifying the county's election results. They said they wanted to hear more evidence from those who have argued, without evidence, that the county’s voting machines were not properly certified.
And of course, no concession speech forthcoming for the Kari.

PHOENIX (The Borowitz Report)—Kari Lake reportedly “flipped out” at a suburban 7-Eleven after buying a losing lottery ticket there on Christmas morning, multiple witnesses report.

According to those witnesses, Lake’s failure to produce a winning result in a lottery scratcher game called Cash Craze led her to accuse the ticket machine of being rigged against her and “riddled with fraud.”

While other customers averted their eyes, the former anchorwoman launched into a tirade on a wide range of targets, including the “pathetic” quality of Christmas presents she had just received.

A member of Lake’s extended family who spoke on condition of anonymity called her Christmas visit to the 7-Eleven “unfortunate” but said that “at least it got her out of the house for a few minutes.”
