    Considering the punishment he got last time, it would be silly not to try. There is zero cost.

    There a reason the price for a failed coup is usually execution.

        The price will be super high to do so by then. I don’t think it will escalate to civil war status, but if he’s effective enough it could end up being a house of cards depending on how events play out. I hope the second act results in maga whining, the center yawning, and him just going tf away. I fear it could be a much worse tinderbox of protests with guns with all of the rhetoric though.

        If he wins I kind of fear the same, too. It’s just awful he’s the candidate all around.

          I just want to say fuck the RNC with a rusty pole for allowing themselves to be co-opted by such a complete fucking fascist psycho

      Not only that, he has to, it’s the only way he can postpone or cancel his impending criminal convictions.

      Besides that, for the people pushing his movement it currently is the only option to seat a king and solidify a path for his family to inherit the throne.

      So I fully expect a lot of trouble around the elections, from lawsuits to riots and open hostilities, and will be very surprised if it all goes fairly peacefully.

        He’ll probably fuck off to Russia when his next coup attempt fails. As a bonus he’ll get free golden showers from Putin.
