They said this shit in 2016. Last time I checked Trump isn't president anymore.

This dumb scare rethoric isn't gonna make anyone vote for Genocide Joe anymore. The terror Dems must learn.

You realise Trump actually tried to stay in power after losing the vote? Even with violence.

scare rethoric [...] terror Dems

I'll give you some time to notice it yourself

If he did then the American justice system will surely punish him for it and you won't have to worry about Trump anymore!

People were screaming about the coup shit in 2016 and it didn't happen. The same joke won't work again.

Two thirds of the supreme court judges are republican, one third appointed by Trump himself. Also he could likely just pardon himself if he wins. So I wouldn't bet on it

Edit:

If people forcefully entering the capitol and claiming Trump is still the president is not a coup attempt then what do you think one looks like?

Also "the democracy didn't collapse the first time so what could go wrong the second time?" Is not that strong of an argument
