He already has plans for it, and using the military to do it. He has made it clear he plans to go full fascist right from day one if he were to win again. It's his only way to not spend the rest of his life in prison (and he loves the idea of being a dictator).

I think if he tries that, the US breaks down as there is no way everyone will go with it.

Trump winning is a win for the enemies of the US and a win for the enemies of the wider free world.

Edit: Add a few words for clarity.

Do you promise?

That's true but Biden winning accomplishes the same. No this isn't a both sides argument, it's understanding that many outside nations have invested in dividing our nation politically. The only win would be a 3rd party win and that won't happen in my lifetime.

That is a both sides argument. Trump is a new level of bad. If you want to have any chance of a future with a better political system, you want to keep Trump out. If you don't vote Biden, you can't complain if you get Trump.

Trump is only a "new level of bad" to liberals that weren't paying attention before.

See if you still feel like if he gets in and does things like taking measures to stay in longer than another single term, withdraw from NATO and the UN.
