Did anyone expect better?
Fortunately other heads of state have been calling Biden.
Maybe they called Obama for Biden's personal phone number. How great would that be!! đ

The bigger issue will be what happens when he's out.
He has millions in loans due and he has a lot of classified information plus he likes to run his mouth about how smart he is and how much he knows...and that's a very bad combination and makes him very vulnerable. AND he's not intelligent enough to realize it.
With his narcassistic personality, all he needs is one of those enemy leaders (Rocket man, Putin, anyone one of them in the Middle east) to flatter him & offer to pay off some of his debt and during a late night conversation Trump will leak like a sieve. He has the potential to put the national security of the USA and it's allies at great risk.

OOOOO a fact I had forgotten here. The Joint Chiefs do not have operational command authority. The line is POTUS to Secretary of Defense to the regional defense secretaries.
Surely, surely, the implications would not be tolerated by Congress? I don't like this. Not one little bit.

The foreign messages are sitting at the State Dept, dt/Pompeii will not pass them onto Biden! However the foreign heads of state are reaching out to Obama people for contact info for Biden! |

Isn't everything backed up? I'd like to think that there are safeguards in place to keep this from happening, no matter who is running what department. I would hope so, but suspect the WH thinks they can delete/destroy everything.  I have some wacko republican friends/relatives here that are talking civil war. Would the military back the current commander in chief? or support a newly elected President? Why would there be riots now? or like when? I think that time has passed. Even Republicans are sick of it all I think. So which is it? Are your wacko Republican friends hoping for civil war or sick of it? |

We have already seen him be loose lipped with other national security information when he wanted to be. What is to stop him when he is throwing a tantrum and needing money badly from selling out all our national secrets to the highest bidder. |

According to them, the saving grace might be that heâs too stupid and doesnât pay enough attention to briefings. |

Why would there be riots now? or like when? I think that time has passed. Even Republicans are sick of it all I think. Watch the Van Jones video. If republicans are sick of it as well, they need to be speaking up and voicing that to their elected officials and others. I have unfollowed pretty much all of the doe hard republicans on my FB feed so I donât know how most are handling this (they all probably went to MeWe and Parler anyway). My neighbor said she voted for trump and thinks he is acting like a baby and is now happy Biden won. Iâve talked to a few other people who seem to think there will be a âdo overâ or âhave faithâ that trump will win in some way. So, there seems to be a variety of responses. But it is well past time for anyone who cares about democracy to speak up. My representative (Emmer) doesnât seem to care what I think but maybe some of these guys will care if their base tells them they are sick of it). |

Esper thinks he is being replace with "yes" men. Trump has to do something to keep himself relevant. Firing people is his signature thing. But at this point, what does he need yes men for unless there is something we donât know about? |

I just watched a video from abc news and they said there was speculation that Trumpâs changes in the pentagon are because the previous people had said then wouldnât allow the military to get involved in any election disputes. They also said that the legal challenges might be an attempt to cause doubt and get the republicans legislatures to go against the will of the people in the election in those states.

If he only half listened or picked up on key points than he would make the rest up and it could have dire consequences if he repeated those bits he did pick up and those bits were taken out of context. |

The pundits have been saying it's likely to be cover up and not coup. The scary part is, the fact that he could be attempting to hide his crimes is the MORE comforting option.
As far as foreign interference, I've been worried about the UAE arms deal announced this week. I think trump is the Saudi's pocket, and the trade of military secrets for cash has already started.
