17. After GW, he probably doesn't need exactly 6, either...

I've already thought about the SCOTUS. I figure he and his official minions are gonna come up with some weird pie-in-the-sky scheme that'll be hard to tear down, constitutionally. THEN SCOTUS will slip in and do their thing.

I truly hope I'm wrong. The first thing I'm expecting is another Brooks Brothers riot in one of the Battleground States, either PA, WI, or MI. (my bet is in MI) Only this one will be much more violent, IMO. Way too hard to ignore, and may ignite others in other states, even those not battleground states. This will thrill trump, and egg him on to bigger election crimes. I think he may try to take this as "proof" of the rigging, and try to take it directly to SCOTUS. At this point, at least, I don't think SCOTUS will take it. I think they'll turn him away. They "said" one and done with GW. Not that their word means anything, but I think they'll see the handwriting on the wall where riots are actually concerned should they put T in as prez, like they did Bush. In many, important ways, Bush was the biggest disappointment for R's and the NAR. They truly thought they could make much more headway towards a theocracy with Bush in office, and although lots of gov't office were then headed by NAR people (National Apostolic Reformation people), Bush actually kept the theocracy take-over to as low a simmer as possible. Cheney was suppose to be the guard and lead him, but that relationship actually soured toward the end.

I think SCOTUS might actually be afraid of putting T in office this time. At least, that's what I'm hoping... I need to run my cards, but I'm afraid of what they'll tell me. They predicted Bush as Prez.
