If (when?) Trump steals the 2020 election, what then? [View all]

Most of us don't want a King Donald I, but we don't get to count the votes.

Civil War II? nobody wants that.

But what if the unthinkable happens? What if Trump and his fellow thugs win, and the rest of the criminal Republican Party holds onto the senate?

Are the majority of Americans going to sit quietly by while America becomes a fascist country run by people who want to rule us and the rest of the world?

Most of us don't want this, but what do we do to stop it? A second Civil War is impossible as there are no geographic boundaries. (What are you going to do? Shoot your neighbor?)

So here's my question. What is out plan B?

If we "revolt" Trump will declare martial law.

If we don't revolt, we become subject to the will of King Donald I.

I hope we will throw his ass out, along with the entire corrupt Republican Party, next November. But hope is not a plan.

We need a way to strongly resist what is all too possible.

Trump cannot serve another four years without this country imploding. There's no easy answer here. But we sure as hell need to find a way to fight the tyranny that may descend upon us.

Anybody have a magic wand?
