What comes next after the Trump win?

[TomC]

Trump’s story is that Russia didn’t invade Ukraine while he was president because he’s so tough. So if Russia does more invading while Trump is president won’t that make him look weak? Especially if he doesn’t respond?

Given Trump's history of flip flopping lies,
How hard would it be for him to convince his supporters that he is now rescuing Europe from Nazis by shipping weapons to Putin?

Well, you can try petitioning the electors to save us. Then start a rumor that Putin has some hold over him, something involving Russian hookers and golden showers.

Uh oh. This just trending, on multiple news sites:
Recording of call from Kamala Harris to Pennsylvania Secy. of State James St. Vitus:

Harris: Listen, all I need is for you to find me 146, 089 votes, which is one more than I need.
St. Vitus: Well, I don't think I can do that.
Harris: Of course you can do that. You can say there were errors. You can say that fraud was detected. You can say that you recounted.
St. Vitus: Madame Vice President, I really don't think --
Harris: Stop dancing around the issue, St. Vitus. A lot of people are going to be upset with you if you let this continue. I can get you the proof about the fraud. I'll have my office send it to you, stat.

(There's more. And I wouldn't call it a perfect call.)

They should get their alternate electors together just in case. And then on Jan 6, Kamala can throw out Trump’s electors as that’s the right thing to do as vice president, at least according to Trump.

House appears to be heading to be remaining in GOP control. CA has a considerable number of ballots to go through, but other places, the GOP is flipping seats. They knew where to hit the Democrats. How can one of the dumbest fuckers to ever be President, have such an incredibly adept machine behind him. Or are they just getting lucky with male angst? Hitting too many bulleyes to consider it luck. Which then makes me wonder, how did the Dems pull off 2022?

With the tri-fecta and fewer adults left in the GOP, they are a filibuster eraser away from passing whatever the fuck they want.

We still do not know if the Republican's have the house yet but if it ends up red, they have won about as hard as you can win. So there should be no excuses whatsoever for the border now if it under their complete control.

Like in 2017? What was the excuse then?

 

[Elixir]

What was the excuse then?

The same as it will be in 2025; Trump wants the problem. A solution does nothing but weaken him.

RINOs and MCCain. Never ever underestimate Q-tards ability to "other" an imaginary group in order to shirk responsibility.

I read that importers are buying now before there are any tariffs. But, that cost extra because they have to warehouse those goods. so, they will have to increase prices to cover that. And, if they get a loan, that is an extra cost.

And, a top Google is "what is a tariff".

Right?

What's with all this, "What are his supporter's going to say when he's so inconsistent about [fucking everything]?

They're gonna say "GO TRUMP!"

Why on earth would anyone think otherwise?

The real question is how quickly we'll be fucked. It remains to be seen how vigorous the notoriously non-vigorous Trump is at enacting his agenda, as his focus is even more sorely lacking than it was in 2017, and this time around he won't have actually competent people in his inner circle. Don Jr. actually said he's looking for cabinet members who think they "don't know better than my dad." Can such a combination of shitfuckery tank the still-recovering and stable Biden economy in the first year of the second Trump administration? On top of that, while it's looking like the GOP will keep the House, there's no indication that they'll have any more of a majority than they did before, or that it will be any less fractious and inept.

It'll be interesting to watch and see what happens when the executive branch starts dismantling the administrative state while also trying to round up 10-15 million people, push tariffs across the board, and watch GOP Representatives scramble when they slowly realize Trump's policies are going to utterly fuck the economy in their districts. Red states (and red districts) rely on federal aid and services far more than blue states and districts, so when the administrative state collapses and the gravy train grinds to a halt...

Not likely. Vestiges of the Biden recovery are likely to persist through most of Trump’s elected term. The damage he does will show up in years 3-5 (whether or not he is still in office after 5 years). If we were a smaller shithole, he could fuck it up in a year or so.

It'll be interesting to watch and see what happens when the executive branch starts dismantling the administrative state while also trying to round up 10-15 million people,

That will probably turn into “we can’t handle these vermin, just shoot them and bury them in the desert”.

push tariffs across the board,

I doubt that his handlers will let that happen.

and watch GOP Representatives scramble when they slowly realize Trump's policies are going to utterly fuck the economy in their districts.

It won’t matter. All they have to do is lie. Tell them they’ve never been so well off. The MAGAt rabble believe what they’re told.

Gavin Newsom’s quest to ‘Trump-proof’ California enrages incoming president

But muh states' rights. Republicans only hold a view if it's convenient for them.

1. Cheney and Mc Cain were Rino's who hated Trump but are now gone. He does still have Romney to contend with though.
2. Trump has gained political experience since then. After all the lawfare and impeachments, he should be well aware of what the deep state is capable of. He may hopefully have superior experience and skills not to hire back stabbers in his own organization who have to be fired. He might have more experience to hire people who actually implement his vision this time around.
3. In 2017 Hillary was claiming the election was stolen and Trump did not have the popular vote. This time around he does have the popular vote so he can be confident with the electoral mandate.
4. This will be Trumps final term so he will have incentive to help drive his objectives and further his final legacy rather than short term political gain of partisanship.

Please providd a link showing that Mrs Clinton claimed the 2016 election was stolen. Stolen and foreign interference are not equivalent.

All the Repubs who want to kill Social Security, pull us out of NATO, end abortion nationwide, kill off huge chunks of the federal govt., privatize schools, prisons, etc. etc. sense that this is their moment, and that these moments don't come around often. They have a guy who has mesmerizing power of his masses -- so why not go for the whole mess?

I hope you don't expect an honest answer from the poster who still hasn't fully admitted that his "the Dems are going to steal the election" claim was spectacularly wrong.
