The Mike Johnson secret that Trump referred to at his Nazi rally might be this.

72. Well, it is hopeful to me that "every other scenario" in my post

is an uninformed fantasy. I would regard that as very reassuring.

So, it took time to respond because I needed to read your links in order to become better informed. Thank you.

I am relying on your first and third links for pertinent information. I am not confident about relying on a link from a Libertarian organization like the Cato Institute.

My scenario of the election results being sent to the House on a contingency vote does seem less likely, based on the ACRA reforms.

It does not make me less nervous about a MAGA conspiracy to seize power because I can easily see their lawyers going over ACRA and individual states' laws with a fine-toothed comb seeking out loopholes and interpretations to exploit. I don't mean idiot lawyers like the ones that Trump hired like Rudy and the rest of his incompetent fools. I mean lawyers working for MAGA oligarch backers, the kind of people who are aligned with The Heritage Foundation and Project 2025.

The Heritage Foundation's president, Kevin Roberts, has publicly stated that they are bringing a revolution to the US government that will be bloodless *IF* the Left allows it. I take that to mean that they intend to take over this year's election results through their definition and interpretation of legal means. In other words, they will use court challenges, their legal interpretations of election laws (including ACRA), plus confusion and chaos to claim and try to enforce a Trump win. If they meet with opposition that they can only overcome by unleashing guerrilla terrorist tactics by well armed and trained militias, they will switch from a "bloodless revolution" to a bloody one.

That does change my "fantasy" scenario of what the MAGA plan is and what role Mike Johnson might play. By MAGA, I do not mean just Trump and his criminal relatives. I mean the American (and foreign?) oligarchs who are the power players behind Trump and Vance. People like Peter Thiel and Kevin Roberts.

The ACRA is a needed and significant improvement for safeguarding elections. I took some notes while reading about it in your links. I think that there are parts that could be exploited and "reinterpreted" by competent (and compromised?) attorneys. There is also the SC with 6 MAGA-owned justices.

But it is late after reading through your links. Perhaps tomorrow I can mention the parts of the info from your links that I think are vulnerable.
