    Yes, but if Trump refuses to leave office then he will need some serious guards. My understanding of the Constitution is that he becomes a domestic threat at that point and “fighting him” is technically legal … and required by anyone that took an oath to defend the Constitution.

      Technically he’s barred from office per the 14th amendment.

      Technically is great until it’s ignored.

        “I’m sure THIS will be the time he faces consequences for blatantly regarding both law and custom! Institutional inertia will protect us now for sure!” say a bunch of ignorant shitlibs for the 1,293,762nd time.

      He’s already a domestic threat, he doesn’t care about the Constitution or laws
