39. His fans think he will be inaugurated in March
According to this theory, the 20th Amendment is illegitimate (only the first 10 amendments are legal, because apparently that line in the Constitution that says the document can be amended is wrong) so the “real” president will be inaugurated when the original date was.
They conveniently forget that Trump was inaugurated in January 2017 so he must be illegitimate. |

I hope to not see or hear a single second of it, but I would bet good money his entire talk will revolve around him winning the election by a landslide and the Dems stealing it from him. He cannot let go of this, because that would mean admitting he lost.

70. He put three of the justices that are now voting against him
on the Court. There was a celebration on the right when he got Kavanaugh and then Barrett (her replacing a liberal icon) on the Court. At least one of the two or Gorsuch are putting a knife to him. I would expect Roberts to go against him on these items, but Roberts alone would not be enough, either Gorsuch, Kavanaugh or Barrett has to come along.
