It really is hard to see the end game here for orange asshole

this reminds me of someone who tells a lie - and false pride or ego prevents the truth from coming out, so they dig in their heels. The lie gets bigger and bigger. Let's add a splash of the story "emperor has no clothes", which will bring in all of the republican enablers.

it goes on and on - and as time keeps passing, the pressure must be getting unbelievable - because of course he lost the election, of course this is all bullshit.

So that brings me to the end game question again. The longer this goes on, the more foolish they all look - as in the only people who don't think it is foolish is the cult. This is major league, worst of all time brand embarrassment - biggest suckers, biggest fools in the history of our country.

As we all sit here in our daily disbelief watching this unfold....

What the fuck could possibly be the end game in all of this?

There are two options - Jan 20 comes and he slinks away and nearly half of the country will seethe and feel like they've been done wrong and cause all manner of obstruction for years.

Or, some court - the Supremes? - come out and toss the election result out, which will bring untold chaos - and essentially end our democracy.

As they say in the Truman Show movie

How will it end?

On Jan 20, Biden becomes President and Trump stops being President. He claims it was stolen and doesn't do anything about it. His fans believe it was stolen and don't do anything about it.

A real ugly side of lots of people are being exposed - they do not behave like we do. It is belief system, not fact, based.

Can you imagine the WH staff (cooks, janitors, etc, and even the political staff), will probably walk away.

Trump will get halled out by force, and you can bet it'll be televised, it would be the ultimate disgrace to not only Trump, but every one of the GOP SOB's that supported his sh*t show.

I would actually welcome that.

Third option, he leaves the country. Some say he has too many assets here to leave, I say he has too much legal liability and US debt to stay. But logical thinking doesn'l predict what Trump will do.

Until they finally resolve. Also, the House could name Biden as the Speaker. There is no rule that the Speaker must be a member.

So we could get acting President Biden.

Yes it would end this country if they overturned the election. Will bring new meaning to the term “civil unrest” and I’m more than willing to do my share. Will turn the USA into a dictatorship. States will seriously begin the process of seceding. 80M people having their votes stolen will not end well.

Could get messy if he surrounds himself with Eric Prince's mercenaries he has already hired for 'African Operations':. Think he won't go there?

Trump isn't a sympathetic character like the one in that movie, but he could pull something like it...

Isn't it pretty obvious at this point?

Once truth, science, facts, logic, elections, courts are gone, you have nothing but belief, party, and religion.

It's a bottomless abyss of a cash cow from the brainwashed maggots.

And, the bad fatih lawsuits are to keep the maggots forking over.

send to "defend the election" and the way he's got the PAC set up it all goes into his pocket to use for anything he wants to use it for. He's $200 million and counting in a month. He might milk this forever.

Stories of him leaving for a Foriegn Nation may well play out. He does have a Estate on the Island of St Martin on the French Side he paid 28 mill for seven years ago. His Company owns Near Punta Canna in the Dominican Republic. But,he might be looking for a spot that does have deportation laws preventing the extradition too the USA.
