He's gonna stop the election

He's gonna nullify the results

He's gonna barricade himself in the White House with the support of rogue military and thousands of armed supporters

He's gonna send in the marshals to arrest Hillary and Nancy on January 20th

He's gonna shut down all liberal stations, websites and publications

Yet nobody on here can give a concrete constitutional way for him to achieve ANY of the above.

My prediction: on January 20th 2021 he will leave as the law dictates if he loses. If he were to win you will see more impotent investigations by the Republicans into Hillary and Nancy coming to nothing.
