Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel worries that former President Donald Trump may not accept the results of the upcoming general election if he loses — in part because of whom he might lose to.

“My belief is this: If Donald Trump had such a difficult time conceding that he lost to another older White man, he is definitely not going to be OK in the event that he loses a presidential election to a younger Black woman,” Nessel told reporters Monday, referencing Vice President Kamala Harris’ expected place at the top of the Democratic ticket. “And I am very concerned about what plans he and his allies might have to be disruptive to the 2024 election.”

“He’s already said if he doesn’t win, it’s because it was stolen. And I mean, that is so frightening — ‘Either I win, or it’s not fair,’” she said.

    He’s got nothing to concede.
    Kamala and the Dems are already in the White House, and Biden is Commander in Chief until Kamala is inaugurated.

    Fatty McFelon has nothing.

        Against the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces and Intelligence/surveilance of the world’s #1 superpower?

        How do the losers organize and strategize against that?

        The ‘war’ would last a few hours.

      The problem isn’t Trump, per se, but the increasingly violent alt right.

      The only way our democracy is preserved is Trump being arrested, tried, and sentenced for J6.

      And since that ain’t happening, I’m convinced we’ll see a civil war within the next 4 years.

        The problem is “Project 2025”… has already been announced to be renamed “Project 2029” if Trump doesn’t win.

        As long as that’s the plan, any Republican win is going to severely erode any remaining US democracy.
