I think Trump will ignore a Supreme Court ruling to see what happens but I think ultimately he will give in unless [View all]

he thinks he has the military on his side which I don't think he will ever have. But he's going to do a lot of damage to our democracy along the way. I am really confidant he will try for a 3rd term if he isn't half dead or dead but that will fail. I think I am most worried about election security and a long term goal of tech billionaires / Heritage Foundation pulling a coup off down the road.

What do others think will happen?
