Erin Burnett CNN: Group "wargames" scenarios in which Trump refuses to concede election



CNN's Erin Burnett talks with Col. Lawrence Wilkerson (Ret.), who is part of a bipartisan group that has been meeting to game out scenarios if President Trump loses the election in November and refuses to concede. Trump has suggested delaying the November election because the pandemic complicates the voting process.

I the orange virus refuses to leave, or otherwise steals the election, it's an easy fix. The key is that the Democrats take the senate. The Democrats immediately impeach both tDump and pence and Pelosi automatically becomes President. Biden could be selected to fill the Vice Presidency and then Pelosi resigns. The thought of President Pelosi will be enough to make the repubs kick tDump out themselves.

Anyone who is not contemplating a bizarre republican response to this election has not been paying attention. The five to six weeks between the election and the electoral college vote on December 14th will be truly crazy with legal challenges by Barr's DOJ, visceral pleas to the trumptard base for action, and use of federal forces. There is no way president pussy grabber wins a standard election, so we won't have one.

Will he or won't he? That's exactly what Trump wants them talking about - rather than the thousands of actual horrible things he's doing and has done. C'mon media. Don't fall for it.
