Regarding the 2024 election, assuming a Biden-Trump contest.
If Trump evades a conviction and wins the election, game over.
If he loses, we'll have a sequel to rigged elections, court cases and protests.
If convicted, he'll continue to "campaign" (his campaigning is merely propagandizing) from house confinement or jail or whatever arrangements the courts decide.
If he wins, he'll demand to be declared President of the country. Lots of court cases and protests.
If he loses, it'll be rigged elections, court cases and protests.

3. when we win the trifecta at the federal level, Americans will want to get on with Biden "finishing the job." Which he will, or die trying.
Watch his latest two speeches at Valley Forge and Mother Emanual AME Church in S. Carolina. They appeal both to average American voters and average Christian -- his fight against the racist evils of christian nationalism that's the veneer for oligarchic fascism's political violence.
4. The 81 million who turned out for all this will turn out in bigger numbers this time.
