Another Jan. 6? Like the chaos that is currently unfolding from the baker's dozen of MAGA protestors outside the courthouse?

If he tries it might cost him more than money
I'm more afraid what will happen if he wins, because I don't know anything about that. I'd expect a Jan 6 2.0 if he loses, but I don't know if there will be either Kristalnacht 2.0, Nazi book burnings 2.0, or just slow erosion of secular human rights in favor of christian fascism.

I'm not worried about it if he loses. He's just some guy. If people start to get violent on his behalf, they get arrested.
The scary part is if he wins in 2024 and has another Jan 6th (and the related effort to stay in power) after his term should have ended.

This time we'll be ready for his sorry ass.
Writers are running out of ideas for this season of jackass
Hey, maybe we could put Trump in a shopping cart and roll him off the roof of an abandoned casino!

Well maybe he should tell his supporters not to do that again….
It’s pretty clear that his endgame is to basically cause an enormous bloodbath.
You misspelled “threatened”.
Bring it on, motherfuckers.
And it could go the same as last time.
If that happens, I don't think the turnout will be anywhere near the same as it was before.
Same he has only lost people nothing gained. I do not think this election will be that close but that's just me, a person from a swing state who watches neighbors remove their pro Trump shit.
It'll only have a positive outcome if we all vote like our lives depend on it
And for a lot of us it literally does
