The plan is pretty simple.
Win PA, hold the red states. Trump Wins.
If a red state falls, get it's leadership to declare a Republican win anyway or refuse to send delegates to the Electoral College. This denies Harris EC votes.
Number 2 may mean neither candidate gets 270 EC votes, in this case a joint session of Congress will decide the election. Unless a miracle happens this will be Trump because they vote by State delegation.
If Harris wins PA and the Rust Belt, go to SCOTUS.
If all else fails, go back to January 6th but with rhetoric meant to make the mob want to occupy the Capitol permanently.
They're already trying to get county clerks and election officials to do the job from the inside. Trump even honors them in person at his rallies. So buckle up for a year where election fraud goes big.
I doubt the capitol police and national guard will be unprepared for that this time.
Occupy the capitol permanently? As if the military industrial complex doesn't have special forces squads who specifically train to exterminate this kind of threat. The nanosecond it becomes serious again, shots will be fired into the insurrectionists until they either give up or stop breathing
You think Trump cares about the people in the mob?
Number 5 may be part of the plan but it won't work this time. It only worked last time because Trump himself refused to increase security around the Capitol.
He doesn't typically attract the smart voters.
Also because security mostly refused to use deadly force. Those security forces are mostly used to dealing with tourist issues, not criminals with guns. That may change if more hardened, militarized police forces are used.
