the half full glass would be appropriate if Mr Trump were a rational person .... and that is where the rest of your post becomes irrelevant. You have assumed he would do the right thing ... well ... because that is what every previous president did. Seems like you are in denial regarding Mr Trump's personality disorder. He is a narcissist. All bets are off.

To really analyze what speculatively may happen .... put yourself in a narcissists shoes ... if you can't do that (I know it's hard) then read Mary Trump's book .... read the many articles written by psychiatrists about Mr Trump's personality. It is way beyond debate ... he is a narcissist. This is not the same as "he has a big ego", he has a mental disorder. He is compelled to lie to maintain his delusion he is the greatest person who ever lived. He knows more than generals, doctors, scientists, etc.

Ask yourself how a person who believes he is the greatest president to ever live .... a person who believes he may be a gift from God ... a person who only thinks of himself could ever admit defeat ... to admit he is second best .... substandard .... worthless .... etc. If his advisors told him he had to go, he may have them all shot as part of a deep state coup.

It appears in a report the military have considered the possibility he loses and then issues illegal orders.

If you are not prepared, you will forced to play "The World Turned Upside Down" and perhaps be forced to suffer 4 more years.

ignorance is the enemy
without equality there is no liberty
Save America - Lock Trump Up!!!!
