I've predicted possible outcomes, with the aid of my imagination, on other threads. Things along these lines:

1) He'll fight tooth and nail to overturn the election result and that will take up all his effort in the remaining weeks of his term.
2) He realises the game is already up so he concentrates on creating problems - possibly even a serious international crisis - for Biden when he becomes president.
3) He loses interest in being president and spends all his time playing golf and tweeting obscenities, letting Mike Pence stand in for him.
4) He is removed from office very soon by Congress for gross misconduct during the count and Mike Pence becomes the 46th president, until January when Jo Biden becomes the 47th.
5) He mysteriously disappears overboard from his private yacht "Trump Princess".

Or . . . and this is particularly alarming . . .
6) He and his legal team bully their way to success in challenging the election result and Trump is declared winner on the basis of esoteric legal technicalities, leading to civil unrest and the eventual break-up of the USA.

That assumes Trump isn't in Jail.

As the supreme court said of Jim Guerin, patriots do not long remain in jail...

Sheepy

The Americans are even more batshit crazy at election time than their normal brand of madness, it has been a relief ignoring the election.
Just because I don't say anything, it doesn't mean I haven't noticed!

I think #6 is good. It's what they try over this side of the pond after all

He could start with the Pennsylvanian Department of Education. As far as I can see the locals have spent half the week counting 6,000 ballots and they still don't have the right answer.

One of his team was on the radio yesterday morning suggesting he would actually run again in 4 years if he lost.  Sadly I fear this is not a joke.

Here we go again. Wishing death on politicians.
Which part of "Election LIGHT RELIEF" escaped you?

Other scenarios were asked for, I gave one with a question mark. I did not write I hope he does.

I apologise in advance to any that take their politics very seriously but over the last hours of wall to wall coverage I can't help myself from imagining just what Trump will do if he loses. I take it there will court proceedings wall to wall, but after that he is still in office for a couple of more months.

So far he has acted absolutely true to form, all that's missing is sight of him lying on the floor, legs and arms in the air screaming in a fit of fury rather like a small child in a full blown tantrum. No matter who wins he has brought the office of President of the USA into disrepute- some would add - again.

So just what will he do ahead of Biden's takeover assuming that happens?


Any others? The more outlandish the better.  ;D
