10. Two Prongs, Perhaps Three

Tue Mar 15, 2016, 11:31 AM

Mar 2016

1. There would be, sadly, riots and violence in the streets as the feces-flinging useful idiots who support this pig would go insane with Drumpf egging them on. It would be terrible. People would be hurt and some could even be killed.

2. Drumpf would start suing anyone and everyone in federal court, putting the entire R ticket into a situation of total uncertainty. Injunctions would be sought, some could be granted and no one would know WTF to do from there. Their convention, happily, would be a total fucking disaster.

And possibly...

3. Drumpf would try to force his way onto state tickets as a third party candidate, and he may try to use the courts to circumvent those laws and deadlines as well.

At this point, that POS thinks he's owed the presidency. It's his because he wants it and he's better than everyone else. He's not going to show any class or dignity no matter how he loses if he loses. It's just not in his makeup.
