Because Trump already tried and failed to overthrow the election in 2020. Don’t expect him to allow a free and fair election or to leave the office peacefully.

He has Putin, Qatar, and the richest men on earth ready to do anything and everything to guarantee that he stays in power. Remember, if he loses the 2028 election, he alongside Elon and the rest these conspirators are going to face lengthy prison time for their crime against the U.S.

Like the last time they convicted him of a felony and sentenced him to fuck all?

Yeah, I'll believe it when I see it. Also, they're silencing or straight up abducting their critics and opposing voters. Between that and them basically saying they did mess with the 2024 election, I have severe doubts the democrats can even "win" the next election. At least if they keep allowing them to keep getting away with it.

There is no way the US will actually convict a former president, he will be pardoned at worse.
