If Biden wins the Presidency but Republicans win one or both houses of Congress, there will be a major effort to make it seem like the Congressional ratification of the electoral count is a moment of high drama that has the potential to reverse the outcome. If that's the case, a coup is likely.

Okay but how does a group of congressmen voting to decertify the election actually = Biden being lead out of the White House in handcuffs by the secret service? What makes that actionable? What actually makes the wheels turn on an official level rather than just civil unrest and mass shootings?

No if that’s the case a coup is happening. All that is left to determine is how successful it is.

swing states under R control or with key senate and house elections are never going to allow a pro biden result to stand unless the kind of consequences that actually deter this sort of thing are enforced.

I think it would be way funnier when Dems win the house and senate but trump wins the presidency and gets impeached and convicted once a week until Paxton sends Tex ntl guard to smuggle him across the Texan border and you end up with president Huckabee sanders.

Cause you know what they say... (over and over to the deaf ears of the DOJ) bsky.app/profile/mtsw...

Biden should make it clear as possible, as soon as possible, that any member of congress who votes to override the legal outcome of the election will be thrown out of congress and prosecuted. It's a coup and you need to treat it like one or your power will be stolen by it!

Unfortunate, that this would probably be very appealing to the news media.

If you lot pull this malarkey again we'll be forced to take back the old colony. Then we'll tax you and give you freedom of healthcare. All the best, your previous rulers.

The only difference if democrats sweep all branches is that the coup attempt starts on the steps instead of inside. You know - the sequel

People can say anything on the internet. It's nice.
