“You gotta win the midterms,” Trump said. “Because if we don’t win the midterms, it’s just going to be, I mean, they’ll find a reason to impeach me. I’ll get impeached.”

I can think of 36 reasons right now...

If he cancels midterms somehow, I expect full scale riot/revolution because fuck this absolute piece of shit pedophile rapist fuck.

He has done a lot of shit that I would expect riots over and yet here we are. Probably find some obscure technically and most will just roll with it saying there is nothing that can be done.

Please prove me wrong...

There is always something that can be done, it just comes down to people willing to do it. The harder/riskier the action the fewer people are willing to put themselves on the line.

Notice he didn't say he will riot rather he expects somebody else to riot.

Ill be honest. Based on peoples reaction to what has gone on so far im guessing people are going to shake their fists and say well we certainly won't let the next election be cancled.
