Is there a way for Trump not to become POTUS?

Someone could shiv the fat bastard before 1/20/25

Or you (or me, or any of us) could drop dead and not care.

That wouldn’t work under the scenario George describes.

If he's in jail? Or if Biden drops out?

Actually I believe there are no rules against him serving the presidency from jail.

Sort of what I was getting at. The Constitution is remarkably short on disqualifications for POTUS. Being a felon is not one of them, AFAIK.

We’ve talked about this, he could pardon himself from federal prison barring a contrary SCOTUS decision. State prison he’d probably be superseded indefinitely by his VP via the 25th amendment.

Actually Trump himself has a theory that could prevent him from being POTUS, Kamala Harris could decline to recognize the electors from Texas.

Looking on the bright side, he could fall into an open sewer. Of course, he’d survive, there are some things even the rats won’t eat.

Is it just me or is the Trump stuff starting to sound like the seven stages of grief?

[Renauda]

It’s just you.

The betting markets are predicting a Trump presidency.

Which is interesting since Hillary had an 83% chance (or a 5 to 1) odds of winning in 2016 as of a week before the election.

The reaction to the 2020 loss still hasn't got past denial.

(My open sewer comment was intended to be humorous. Obviously there's no way he'd fit down a manhole.)

The rich getting richer. We've had enough Biden and his support of the elite (white) classes.
