Why would he do this? The republicans fucked him over, what's the motivation behind this? Simply to win Georgia?

Also how will the dems react?

    stop doing the shit of thinking trump has a strategy. He just does things because he feels like it.

      I think Trump is an idiot criminal with a survival instinct who just happens to have a huge alt right following at his disposal, so maybe he'll feel like using them while he has the power and immunity that he doesn't want to give up, at this point why wouldn't he just go for it?

        He might be doing it off some vague instinct that it will let him stay president, but that instinct is dumb and wrong and not anything to worry about.

          My question is if he faces certain prosecution after leaving office for crimes we may not even know of yet, failing a military coup attempt would just give him the same punishment, except he has a chance to succeed by doing so and really has nothing to lose by trying... I'm not worried, but thats my gut feeling of what seems to be happening considering he's a textbook narcissist trying to survive, and honestly I wouldn't even mind if he tries it and takes down the system in the process, although it would be horrible for all of us it at least allows small hope for a better future of which now we have none

            Highly unlikely. The dems won't do this for the same reason that mob bosses don't just call hits on each other. It would invite Republicans to prosecute them for their own corruption.

              Normally I'd agree, but its likely Trump has done treasonous things we are not even aware of yet that may have to be prosecuted once discovered. At the end of the day though, you are right that he will do whatever he feels like in his position of absurd immunity and power

                They simply "don't" get discovered, then. I would put like 20:1 odds of Trump getting charged with anything significant.
