Experts say the president has a lot of power at his discretion to contest the election—and some of the scenarios that could bring us to the edge of a crisis are actually very plausible. More, via FiveThirtyEight:

found that 59 percent of Americans were not too confident or not confident at all that the election would be conducted in a free and equal way, in line with its polling since early August on this question.

This, were it to happen, would likely be met immediately with legal challenges in state and federal court, perhaps followed by another intervention by the U.S. Supreme Court. But the significance is that even if a court ruled against the validity of one set of electors, Congress still has the power to consider both sets of electors as long as they have in hand the certificate naming them.

Ultimately, though, neither side finds a compromise and we find ourselves in the midst of a full-blown constitutional crisis. In this scenario, the Supreme Court could become involved if, for instance, Democrats seek an injunction to stop Pence from not counting Pennsylvania’s votes. But it’s also possible the court would try to avoid making a ruling on the counting dispute, in keeping with a dissent from Bush v.

For instance, in one of its simulations, the Transition Integrity Project found that GOP leaders might support some of Trump’s claims of fraud or maneuvers to manipulate the vote count, but that didn’t mean they’d go along with every move he tried. For instance, it found many Republicans might oppose an attempt to federalize and deploy the National Guard.

JosephB21565430 FiveThirtyEight May God have mercy on his soul, because the IRS definitely won’t!🤣🇺🇸

FiveThirtyEight Hope he doesn’t ! But trump will win by a landslide! I’ve signed up so many people that have never voted before and they all want Trump re-elected.

FiveThirtyEight HOPE THE PRESIDENT IS ALERT AND HIS PEOPLE TOO - DEMOCRATS ARE NOT TO BE TRUSTED AS WE HAVE SEEN THESE PAST 4 YEARS - EVERY THING THROWN AT TRUMP HAS BEEN A HOAX AND A DISTRSACTIN BY DEMS - THE PAFRTY THAT CANNOT BE TRUSTED WITH ANYTHING

FiveThirtyEight

FiveThirtyEight What if Trump wins and two weeks later Dems say “ oh we found 3 million ballots slid down by the spare tire”. “HOLD EVERYTHING you must count these votes. I put my ballot in a scanner then drop it into a locked box after I had to show an ID and have signature checked. Legal!

FiveThirtyEight If there was voter ID and no mass mailings there wouldn’t be any worries. Everything LEGAL you do in life requires an ID. Mass mailings that people didn’t ask for is illegal. That is why the Dems like it. No proof. People picking up ballots, dropping them off. Ridiculous!

FiveThirtyEight When can the states start counting the mail-in- ballots? Can they start the same time as early voting? How many states do not have early voting? Do they have to be counted by hand and if so, why? Lots of questions.

FiveThirtyEight It's time to curb the power of the president. Start with the emergency powers first.

FiveThirtyEight What if Trump wins?

FiveThirtyEight lol...why would you contest what you already won and the patriots will control the Supreme court for your entire lifetime. The republic will stand.

FiveThirtyEight Losers go home. Is as simple as that. Why ask?

FiveThirtyEight And the Democrats inspired riots are not?

FiveThirtyEight David Muir reported on 27 times that Trump’s claim that he was spied on was unfounded and false. Now we know the truth so will David report that he was wrong and Trump was correct. Report the truth now or you are a proven liar. Trash TV ABC.

FiveThirtyEight What if Biden loses and refuses to concede? Hillary Clinton has already advised him to do that.

FiveThirtyEight Stop giving the idiot ideas

FiveThirtyEight Look, I can tell how badly the MSM wants this dramatic ratings-grabbing scenario to play out, so how about this? We skip the election, declare Biden the winner, have Trump refuse to give up power, start the second civil war, and start writing the script for the movie adaptation.

FiveThirtyEight Its time to go 💩🕳️🇺🇸 3rd world country military coup d'état on this 🍊🤡.

FiveThirtyEight If a disaster is possible Trump will cause it

FiveThirtyEight Why is a major network actually entertaining such a scenario. They should be sounding an alarm. Do they not live in the same cou try the rest of us do? Do we want to be Belarus? This is irresponsible reporting.

FiveThirtyEight This government already has a legitimacy problem. Unpopular, uses foreign aid to retain power, and has dismantled our system of checks and balances. The election should be the least of our worries.

FiveThirtyEight There's a better chance of a peaceful transfer of power with Trump then there was with Obama. Trump and democrats aren't trying to frame anyone.

FiveThirtyEight Trump will win in a landslide on election night. So no worries

FiveThirtyEight I have no concerns he will be escorted off the property. His followers won't be able to help him then, including his administration. My concern is the chaos he is causing right now with his threats. I don't care what SCJ he puts in, they still have to follow our constitution!

FiveThirtyEight So don’t cheat!

FiveThirtyEight I feel like there is a plan for when things like that happen. There’s always a plan. Ask Dutch

FiveThirtyEight When you know that you are going to lose…

FiveThirtyEight We also have a lot of scenarios to combat a man who won't leave office. Especially if he loses. He can push us to the edge, but trust me. We are not going over the edge. TheResistance

FiveThirtyEight The secret service will drag his fat ass out!!

FiveThirtyEight Experts say the Democratic Party has a lot of mob power at their discretion to contest a Trump victory—and some of the scenarios that could bring us more looting, pillaging and plundering are actually very plausible. The Democratic Party has lost all privileges in governing me.
