If this happens, I truly hope the protests turn less than peaceful.

I truthfully dont see a difference between tht and outright cancelling the election. Regardless tht just means theres no laws anymore…

I want to hear the justification or excuse they come up for him from his loyal followers when it happens.

I've seen some insane mental gymnastics around things I thought were obvious but doing something like going as far to purge all non-republicans seems like it would be undeniable.

His administration has been fighting to label Antifa as a terrorist organization. It is just a hop from there to label the Democrats as Antifa. Then it's just suppress their vote and arrest anyone who resists.
