POTUS: A Sharpie Is Always Needed

[First Time, Long Time]

I don’t see how anyone with a brain thinks he leaves either in January or in four years.

I still don't see the Secret Service allowing him to stay if he loses. They serve the office not the man.

Well we know republicans in the senate and house won’t stand up to him. So far he’s mowing everyone over.

Is he not able to golf today?

Governor Cuomo wanted to see me this weekend. He just canceled. Very hard to work with New York - So stupid. All they do is sue me all the time! https://t.co/ps0OzMxuE5

Hey Elise, Cuomo's "law" isn't preventing citizens from access to those travel programs, it's Dimwit Donnie's reaction to those "laws" that is.

Take it up with him. He can go back to letting NY'ers using those programs, just as they did until he banned them from doing so just a few days ago.

Maybe. But again...i don't see the Secret Service or in fact the military allowing him to stay. He would have a very hard time conducting a coup without any force to back him up.
Republicans are cowards at this point...we know this. But allowing your mind to go all the way to a coup is silly.

I think we're going to find out. The Secret Service as of 2003 became part of the Department of Homeland Security. How Trumpian is that department? Well, that department does not have a leader it has an "acting leader"

The current acting secretary of homeland security is Chad Wolf.

Want to be even more scared?

WASHINGTON — Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin is seeking to wrest control of the Secret Service from the Department of Homeland Security and has been lobbying President Trump to back such a move, according to administration officials.

I’m thinking more along lines of this November, he’ll file something in the courts to delay a handover

What if the Secret Service(and the army) worship him as much as the rest of the cult does? What then?

Considering what I've read about the military's dealings with him....i don't think we have to worry about that.
The Secret Service is silent (as they should be) but I also have a very hard time imagining they are ok with him regardless of their politics.
Stop panicking.

And he'll lose. Again...stop panicking. You are sounding a lot like Mr. Chicken Little.

I posed a question on a message board. I’m not panicking so stop with that bull

If you say so...
In my experience...you don't pose questions like that without fearing the possibility.

Thanks for your concern. I’m not panicking, but I’m not gonna go Susan Collins here and assume he’s gonna behave better. Norms are getting trashed left and right, and I’m maintaining a curiosity about what else will happen

Not denying norms are being trashed and he will retaliate.
Im just not at all ready to speculate on him attempting to stay in power with no proof he'd be militarily able to hold it.

Hasn't lost in the courts yet.

He loses in court all the time.
