ASSUMING Biden now wins, wot Trump do?

[user104658]

If Biden wins, Trump still has 2+ months in office. How will he use 'em?

Poll coming

[Niamh.]

Oh god, I dread to think :skull: It's going to be so ****ing messy

[Jessica.]

I think he'll refuse to leave

[user104658]

I should add that when I say "without incident" - I mean in terms of Trump's own actions. In terms of how his supporters will react, I think at least "some incident" is inevitable.

[user104658]

I think he'll refuse to leave

The issue with that one is that at 12.01pm on the 20th of January, if he's still in the White House, the Secret Service can turn round and shoot him as a trespasser :umm2:.

[Niamh.]

I don't think he will refuse to leave but I do think he will use the time to rile up his supporters and cause as much damage and division to the country as possible

[The Slim Reaper]

He's going to nuke Pennsylvania.

[The Slim Reaper]

And there will definitely be a Trump running in 2024.

[Nicky91]

The issue with that one is that at 12.01pm on the 20th of January, if he's still in the White House, the Secret Service can turn round and shoot him as a trespasser :umm2:.

nah, we can just ask him we want to see his taxes, and he'll be gone in no time from the white house

[user104658]

For my part - I think he will try to challenge it in the courts and when that fails he will seemingly leave without incident, however I think that'll be because there will be under-the-table deals where he negotiates legal protections after he leaves, in exchange for not sabotaging anything on the way out. That would be his smart move. We'll see if he really is a clever businessman in disguise, or a narcissistic troll to the end.

[arista]

TS he will fly to Scotland
for a holiday

[Jessica.]

TS he will fly to Scotland

During a pandemic?

[Niamh.]

On a morbid curiosity level though I would love if he did refuse to leave :hehe:

[Niamh.]

And there will definitely be a Trump running in 2024.

Please let it be Melania :fan:

[user104658]

And there will definitely be a Trump running in 2024.

He can run again in 2024 because the rule is only a 2 term max, they don't have to be consecutive. I personally don't think he'll be in good enough health by then, though. I also don't know if any of the actual Trumps have the same "cult of personality" as Donnie to get the whole squad behind them, though I do think a "Trump-esque protege" is a possibility. It depends though. I think Republican's best chance would actually be running a closer-to-sensible-centre campaign with a heavy focus on rock bottom tax.

[Niamh.]

Please let it be Melania :fan:

Aw no ****, she isn't American :laugh:

[user104658]

I said to my wife earlier that he'll get a 2-bed bungalow in an Aberdeenshire suburb and spend the rest of his days pottering around his golf course :joker:

[bots]

i've been thinking about it and I think the time will just run out until January and Biden will take over with no transition.

Elections can't be challenged or even recounted until the vote has been certified which will be in 2 or 3 weeks time. By then, many of his supporters will have acclimatized to the situation and the little momentum he has will be gone (but he doesnt actually have any momentum now) It's difficult to fire up people when they are heading into the holiday season. I think he will end up being banned by social media in the very near future and his opportunity to do any further TV press broadcasts will all but disappear, so he will eventually fizzle out

[The Slim Reaper]

I know. I sort of agree about his health which is why I said a trump. How many big mac and cokes can one man take. Don Jr definitely fancies his chances.

I'm pretty sure that he will play the victim throughout the whole thing. He's skint and he'll need money when he leaves office, and the best way to do it is by keeping his base riled up. The thing I think could be the funniest, is when the old president hosts the new one at the white house on inauguration day. I think he could be sitting next to biden talking about fake votes and ballots appearing.

[Niamh.]

I said to my wife earlier that he'll get a 2-bed bungalow in an Aberdeenshire suburb and spend the rest of his days pottering around his golf course :joker:

He has a golf course if Ireland too......please let him pick yours :fc:

[Crimson Dynamo]

He will be back for 2024

[Oliver_W]

I think he'll contest the states with <1% difference and/or any states where there's any actual indication of cheating, if any, and fair enough on both counts. If there's no realistic possibility of getting a re-election through the courts I think he'll try to get some spiteful laws or bills passed to piss off the people who (in his eyes) didn't realise how wonderful he is, aka those he failed to win over.

[Crimson Dynamo]

I think all the fraud and contesting stuff will give him enough time to (in his eyes) save face and he can lick his wounds and reflect before going again in 2024

[user104658]

I think all the fraud and contesting stuff will give him enough time to (in his eyes) save face and he can lick his wounds and reflect before going again in 2024

I don't know... I think he might think that at first but at 78, after 3 years of stress-free trolling? I don't see him willingly coming out of retirement. I think the only reason he's terrified of leaving is that he thinks he's going to have to "face the music" on various issues (debts, legal issues) when he leaves BUT I don't think he actually will face any of that in any meaningful way... and once he's content that he's not going to jail or going bust, he'll be happy enough to literally retire to the golf course.

He's already an unindicted co-conspirator on a charge that sent Michael Cohen to prison. If he didn't have so much pride and bluster, he'd resign and put Pence in charge to given him a full pardon for past crimes.

[arista]

During a pandemic?


Yes he has his own Jet

[rusticgal]

He will do everything he can to undermine it all....there will be lots of accusations...plenty of sarcasm. It will be entertaining.
At the end of the day 4 years ago he became President against all the odds....he has been one of the most talked about Presidents ever albeit for the wrong reasons....he certainly left his mark.
Hopefully he will retire graciously...but I doubt it :laugh:

Imagine if he just packed his bags and left the White House :laugh:

[joeysteele]

He's clearly not someone who likes losing at anything not will even admit to losing.

So it would surprise me if he left without some incident or even prolonged hostility and nastiness.

Unless the Republican party think more sensibly and ensure he goes.
Then again he may set out to plan and bully his way in to being the candidate in 2024 again.

[Denver]

The issue with that one is that at 12.01pm on the 20th of January, if he's still in the White House, the Secret Service can turn round and shoot him as a trespasser :umm2:.

Hopefully they will stick with the shoot to kill them he demands

They won't throw their weight behind the first ever candidate to lose 2 popular votes

[Niamh.]

It was a joke Adam

[The Slim Reaper]

Trump is still pretty much universally popular amongst republican voters and they are the voters in the primaries. Just to increase his vote numbers after what he's done for 4 years tells us he isn't willingly going away.

[Denver]

Please let it be Melania :fan:

Oh j thought you were serious because they are a lot of people who think she is a good person when she just isn't

[Denver]

Trump is still pretty much universally popular amongst republican voters and they are the voters in the primaries. Just to increase his vote numbers after what he's done for 4 years tells us he isn't willingly going away.

But he won't be on social media, he won't be invited for TV appearance so that makes it hard to for him to keep support

[The Slim Reaper]

Niamh being pro trump family is what I expected after her recent attempted power grab over Christmas names.

[The Slim Reaper]

But he won't be on social media, he won't be invited for TV appearance so that makes it hard to for him to keep support

Not really. I don't think you realise what appeal he must have to the voters in the republican primaries. Of course he'll be on social media, and he's a ratings hit, so he'll be back on tv.

[smudgie]

He will sit crying in the corner blaming everyone but himself.
Then he will cry more tears when wifey walks.

[Denver]

Not really. I don't think you realise what appeal he must have to the voters in the republican primaries. Of course he'll be on social media, and he's a ratings hit, so he'll be back on tv.

Twitter have already said he will be permanently banned and so will any profile he makes after that as soon as he is out of the White House

[The Slim Reaper]

Twitter have already said he will be permanently banned and so will any profile he makes after that as soon as he is out of the White House

Then he'll post tweet-style rants all day on facebook instead. Facebook is a misinformation site, so they definitely won't ban him. Anything he posts on there will be turned into tweets.

[Liam-]

Twitter have already said he will be permanently banned and so will any profile he makes after that as soon as he is out of the White House

That’s not what they’ve said

[bots]

he wont be able to run in 2024 if he is in jail, and if he keeps making a tit of himself until january, no-one will go easy on him

[user104658]

he wont be able to run in 2024 if he is in jail, and if he keeps making a tit of himself until january, no-one will go easy on himI don't think he'll go to jail but I think unless he is completely stupid he will keep as low a profile as possible.

[Niamh.]

Niamh being pro trump family is what I expected after her recent attempted power grab over Christmas names.

:oh:

[Tom4784]

He'll fan the flames of Civil War and a few crazies will commit terrorist acts in his name, I do think that there will be Trump supporter led riots but he won't get the civil war he wants.

He'll try to wrap up the result in litigation and then I do think there's a good chance of him going on the run before January when it all gets thrown out of court, if not, he won't leave the white house until he is forced to, and Nancy might end up being the president until he leaves.

If he doesn't run, he'll be imprisoned not long after he's out of the white house, I expect.

[GoldHeart]

I think he'll do more than refuse to leave! :bored:, But the bitch will have no power so hopefully they can just remove him by force :hee: .

[Niamh.]

I love how him leaving graciously has Zero votes though :hehe:

[bots]

I love how him leaving graciously has Zero votes though :hehe:

Seriously I dread to think what else is to come not only from his looney antics, but also his die hard fans :umm2::facepalm: .

He'll definitely be provoking another civil war !!. He needs throwing in jail .

[Niamh.]

I'm actually a little bit scared as to what Donnie will do when he realises that it is indeed over and he has indeed lost and there is nothing he can do about it. I've always said of Trump that he has incredible survival instincts so I'm dreading whats coming next.

Lawsuits have been filed all over the country and Donnie keeps mentioning the supreme court so he clearly has no intention of leaving quietly.

He'll keep talking bull**** about fraud, with no evidence at all, and his supporters will believe it. I'm still stunned that it was so close. Shows how divided America really is at the moment and Donnie is the kind of guy to exploit that division.

[The Slim Reaper]

He'll probably nuke sweden because of Greta.

The next few weeks will definitely be crazy ! , He'll continue to slander and disrespect democracy .

And he'll continue his salty bitterness , and all his accusations will continue to be laughed out of court surely .

Yeah what he's doing to his own country is just so irresponsible and unpatriotic really. I'm by no means a massive Joe Biden fan either but that speech he made the other day is what the people of the USA need to be hearing right now. They need to remember they're all a part of the same country

[The Slim Reaper]

Well it's incitement of violence, isn't it?

It's potentially even worse, it could be classed as sedition.

Especially coming from the bloody President (soon to be former :hee: ) that should carry an even heavier sentence because of his influence

Why doesn't he just get lost and crawl back in Trump tower !

[Jack_]

He'll never formally concede and will spend the next four years on Twitter (or wherever he's allowed) claiming the election was "stolen" from him, that Biden is a "fraudster" and that it needs to be overturned in 2024.

The thing is, this was actually a pretty good election for the Republicans. They've gained seats in the House and aren't likely to lose control of the Senate, and Trump has just won the second biggest popular vote total of any presidential candidate ever, higher turnout the reason or not. Trumpism is now, arguably, and rather worryingly, a serious political beast in the States, and the GOP will need to decide whether to return their party to...well...some kind of normality, or whether they embrace it wholeheartedly and allow his base to take over. Time will tell on that idea :shrug: both parties need to seriously look inwards at themselves after this election, I worry neither will

Oh and he's not going to prison btw, come on. That idea is for the birds
