I expect Donald Trump to unleash a campaign of manufactured crisis after this election. Where Republicans lose races that threaten his power, I expect him to allege fraud without evidence, demand intervention, and direct the people who serve him to obstruct the consequences of defeat.
I expect the country to experience weeks of deliberately cultivated uncertainty, intimidation and conflict. I expect threats against the people responsible for counting and certifying votes. I fear political violence. And I expect the turmoil to coincide with an escalating insistence that Donald Trump’s presidency need not end when the Constitution says it must.
