What we need to be concerned about is the next coup attempt. A coup needn't be a horde descending on the capitol.

Doubt there will be another coup attempt, last one did not go well nor would have worked even with fake electors. These are MAGAmorons, not the brightest bulbs. Interesting that the rightwing calls Dems Dimwits, guess they do not have mirrors at home.

But OTOH, I do expect these MAGAmorons to intimidate voters, especially in Blue cities.

The coup attempt I suspect is disputing the votes at the state level along with various voter suppression tactics. I don't anticipate any intimidation antics around here. I may even become a poll worker.

Donald Trump may be barred from holding public office due to a constitutional amendment disqualifying those who have taken part in 'insurrection or rebellion.'...

Waiting for the GQP to declare that constitutional amendment unconstitutional. Of course they'll have to wait for defendant #1 to actually be convicted first, lest they tip their hand.

MeidasTouch host Ben Meiselas reports on how Jack Smith’s aggressive filings have exposed how Judge Aileen is not only corrupt but totally incompetent and now she can’t even figure out how to handle basic things about the case. Jack Smith is just waiting for the perfect opportunity for an appeal.

This "judge" is both corrupt and incompetent. Whell's World.

Mike Pence says he wasn’t aware of any ‘broad-based effort’ by Trump to declassify documents
