I've heard somewhere they cared about decorum. ;-)

Imagine how classless those plaques would be in Calibri font

The only way Trump wins a third term at this trajectory is if there's a pandemic of brain worms that is exclusively fatal for people with above-room-temperature IQs.

I find it amusing that you think Trump would care about a fair election. His team will have much better preparation than in 2020. He has shown that you can go full brown shirt on Congress and he'll just pardon you for it. And he has shown he is more brazen in everything in his second term. If he wants a third term, he won't rely on fair elections to get it.

And it'll be up to individual states, or popular revolt, to stop him. The Republicans have been systematically removing the guardrails, and most of all people, that stopped Georgia from ignoring the popular vote in 2020, so I have little hope for the states. And Trump is already practicing and preparing the national guard for dealing with a popular revolt... and Americans have reacted with a shrug.

"Dan Bongino has said he will leave his role as the FBI's deputy director in January." https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cvgj0p5yl92o

Maybe Trump will give the job opening to some guy named Pladimir Vutin.
