With the recent Supreme Court ruling, Biden can just say no. He can order the military to do whatever is necessary to secure democracy.

A coup and a counter-coup might not look much different. That certainly is a problem. I expect we’ll do our best to avoid it, but we’ll do what’s needed if it comes down to Kamala getting 270 electoral votes denied only by Trumpers refusal to certify.

Some supporters of the GOP, notably some specific foreign ones, are fine with that. They’d rather see Trump in office, but they’ll be happy with anything that destabilizes the US while making their own elections seem better.

If Kamala loses the election legitimately, well, we just lose. Dem leadership will abide by the results of a reasonably fair election.
