29. The 2020 repeat

Yeah, and that's the part that pisses me off. Trump is not going away for any reason.

If he loses the election, he will contest the results; if he is convicted in the hush money trial, he will continue to campaign for the presidency.

Of course, contesting an election loss will be under different circumstances this time since he's not the incumbent. If the lower courts follow the rules and throw out the bogus lawsuits, his only course of action will be another attempt at blocking the transfer of power.

And I'm guessing he'll have a plan ready for that. And I'm hoping there is a defense plan for that.
