What’s the worst that could happen?

We wanted to know: Whats the worst thing that could happen to our country during the presidential election? President Trump has broken countless norms and ignored countless laws during his time in office, and while my colleagues and I at the Transition Integrity Project didnt want to lie awake at night contemplating the ways the American experiment could fail, we realized that identifying the most serious risks to our democracy might be the best way to avert a November disaster. So we built a series of war games, sought out some of the most accomplished Republicans, Democrats, civil servants, media experts, pollsters and strategists around, and asked them to imagine what theyd do in a range of election and transition scenarios...
Picture This:
Trump refuses to concede, alleging on Twitter that MILLIONS of illegal ALIENS and DEAD PEOPLE have voted in large numbers and that the uncounted ballots are all FAKE VOTES!!! ...
For obvious reasons, we couldnt ask Trump or Biden or their campaign aides to play themselves in these exercises, so we did the next best thing: We recruited participants with similar backgrounds. On the GOP side, our players included former Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele, conservative commentator Bill Kristol and former Kentucky secretary of state Trey Grayson...
(ROFLMAO ...)

Without the Billionaire Globslists pouring cash into these propaganda outlets they would have turned belly up long ago.
Real people don’t buy this crap.

Millions of children in CA and across the United States are not in school this fall, and are not learning. No sports, no music, no drama, no friends.
They are isolated in their lonely dark rooms in front of a screen. Even 5-6 year olds, crying and resistant.
And it appears indefinite.

"and ignored countless laws"
I mean, what's the point of naming any of them specifically?
So far, this guy on Twitter seems to be the whistleblower he claims to be. His following posts are dated July 31 and I think he answers the rhetorical question, "What's the worst thing that could happen? [Note: Scott Adams tweeted about this recently so it's known, and surely President Trump and his adminstration are prepared]

They do not have access like they did when Obama was in power. Their control over the fraudulent voting mechanisms, satellites, rigged voting machines, mail in voting, etc. Is Much less than in 2016/18. Pres.Trump is doing a great job at cutting off their schemes
So they intend to just "take the election". On election Day and night if their comrades in the mainstream media are going to report that they won. They are just going to flat-out report incorrect numbers to solidify in everyone's mind that the Dems won.

They will use every means of illegal voting scams to back this up. They intend to intimidate and destroy Republican votes anywhere they possibly can. They want to rush their "newly elected" people into office with very fast local swearing in ceremonies. Just like Obama's BS
"office of the president elect" stunt. They will officially Not acknowledge any results that doesn't benefit them and challenge anything else they can
John
@Johnheretohelp
And they will support and encourage riding [rnote: rioting] as a means to enforce there newly elected officials. They also intend to declare the presidential election for themselves, with the MSM backing it up on every channel 24/7. And they will lead a massive march,protest,riot
John
@Johnheretohelp
To the White House to remove President Trump. If he would not be removed they intend to have their president address the nation from Congress. And their president will run the country from Congress.
John
@Johnheretohelp
The MSM will not allow President Trump any air time and will block everything possible from being communicated from the rightful president.
John
@Johnheretohelp
This is bad. The riots, the taking over of police stations, shutting down and ceiling off federal buildings, this is their practice run for what happens the day after the election.
John
@Johnheretohelp
The riots have quieted down right now but that is by design. Untold millions are flowing into these groups and they are stockpiling right now. Round two is coming, bigger, more violent, more focused, and able to hold out for months.
John
@Johnheretohelp
They are being directed and supported by hostile foreign governments and leftover Deep State players within our own government.
John
@Johnheretohelp
They do not care if the economy is crashed, if people are out of work, they welcome the violence. They want the violence, that is part of their plan. If there is a great deal of violence their new president or ask foreign Govs to help establish order.

the antifa that i keep seeing on youtube do not seem to be in the habit of taking the advice to be peaceful at all seriously. they don’t have enough guns and they are concentrated in non-farming areas separated from each other. the only way they could prevail over a fraudulent election is imho by a military coup. so perhaps the question boils down to which side the military would choose in such a situation, trump or biden? i don’t know the answer but i would hope it is trump since if it is biden it would be military versus most of the rest of the country. again, however, i wonder if the military would be outgunned by civilian militia. and with all due respect to the air force and navy, one needs boots on the ground to hold territory.

President Trump has broken countless norms and ignored countless laws during his time in office
Why couldnt the RATs find any of these during their phony impeachment process? Not a single one.
