the normal operation procedure in the White House is for Trump to demand something and his minions go out and do it. Uethical, illegal or just plain wrong, doesn't matter. So no matter what the results Tuesday night, I expect his Cabinet, lawyers and especially Barr to go out Wednesday morning and start sowing havoc wherever they can.
Not that it will do anything, but shitting all over everything is what he does.

(17,671 posts)She was the most resistant person that I have ever seen to getting her necessary inoculations. A well mannered and polite child at all other times, she would raise holy hell about getting a shot. What we did, is concealed the fact of where we were going, and what for, until the last possible minute in order to minimize the duration of the tantrums.
I suspect that Trump's staff is using a similar strategy.

(6,845 posts)Pence a care taker until Jan.20, and ensure an orderly transition period, "due to the psychological condition of the president which has incapacitated him for the duties of the office at this time." The only way he could
get the powers back would be proving psychological fitness, which he will never do.
It Could get Pence off the hook for a lot of shit and clean up his reputation.
Would enough of the sycophant cabinet go along?
You know this could be a good meme to start in right wing circles.
Get them used to the idea that Trump will lose once all the votes are counted.
