(71 posts)Yes, the corrupt SC has said he can do whatever he wants, they aren't going to suddenly change their minds.
There are a myriad of ways they can spin this, from saying the 22nd Amendment doesn't say what it plainly says (the SC has recently been ruling the laws say the exact opposite of what they explicitly say), to simply not counting states that won't put him on the ballot (Grassley was all set to nullify states' intentions until Pence refused to get in that limo), to simply declaring, against all evidence, that Trump won.
And yes of course Republicans will back whatever the fuck he does because they are cowardly, sniveling sycophants who put their careers over country. Is there a single thing he does thus far that got anything stronger than a slight tut-tutting from the spinless fucks at worst??
I'm not sure why you keep thinking the military will intervene. Hegseth is purging them of everyone "disloyal" to Trump and only Trump and furthermore there is little to no chance they would intervene when there is even a patina of fake legitimacy, such as the SC's blessing.
And of course the American people won't "accept it without a fuss"; when has that stopped fascist dictators? Did it stop Putin? Orban?
Again, if you can point to any time in recent history that a fascist dictator has voluntarily given up power I'll be happy to hear it.
