‘Trump Has Already Rigged the 2028 Presidential Election’: US Defence Insider

A long time activist friend shared this with me. Utterly chilling and compelling!

The five Attorneys General who I saw speak in Portland on Wednesday night talked about the midterms and were all aware that there would be enormous efforts to circumvent those elections. Again and again they discussed how they are fighting back and winning case after case in the courts. They also clearly and strongly affirmed that these battles for democracy won’t be won in the courts alone. We are all needed!

I recognize the horrors that we are facing. I’m also not yet convinced that they are insurmountable. For one thing, I’m doubtful that Trump will survive another 3 years given his both his dementia and his health issues. And I am also deeply aware that Trump is but a symptom of something much larger than this one man.

And, consequently, I agree that we are all in extreme danger that the fascist takeover will prevail. And it is critical that we recognize the fascist forces lined up to completely decimate democracy in America.

This is a huge WAKE UP CALL. I’m sharing this article not as a doomsday prediction and to simply give up. NO! Hopeless despair is NOT an option. It is critical that we understand what is happening and to use that awareness to compel us to ACT. NOW.

There countless ways that we can fight back and do everything humanly possible to join in solidarity to stop the horrors and heartbreaks of what is unfolding at the hands of the fascist regime currently claiming ever growing power. No act is too small. We are all needed, all in this together! — Molly

Brynn Tannehill has worked for years for one of the largest US Government defence contractors in the country.

Writing pseudonymously for Byline Times, in November 2024 she predicted the astonishingly rapid militarisation of the homeland that Donald Trump would pursue; and in February 2025 she accurately forecast some of the most shocking turns of the Trump administration – including how serious it is about annexing places like Venezuela and Greenland.

Now she casts her eye on what pivotal presidential elections will hold in 2028 – and warns that Democrats are dangerously unprepared for what’s coming.

Regardless of how people vote, the chances of a Democrat Government coming to power in 2029 is now virtually nil, argues Brynn Tannehill

By Brynn Tannehill

The outcome of the election has already been determined: Democrats just don’t realise it yet.

Donald Trump’s first year in office has largely been an exercise in consolidating all power in the executive branch, and then wielding this power to punish his enemies, whether they are recalcitrant blue state governors, people who have angered him (like James Comey and Letitia James), and unpopular minorities (immigrants and transgender people), or the Chairman of the Federal Reserve.

(Please note, this is a long article, which I am only quoting excerpts here. The author goes into depth in the article about each one of the below risks.)

• The Legal Coup
• Prevent Democrats Who Might Win From Running
• Control Who Counts The Votes
• State and Local Officials Refuse to Certify The Results
• Challenge the Results in a Rigged SCOTUS
• Overturn the Election Using Contested Election Procedures in the House
• A Republican Vice President Will Refuse to Certify the Election in the Senate
• If Republicans Control the Senate They Will Refuse to Certify the Election
• Republicans Can Use the Military, ICE, Base to Physically Prevent Inauguration

... When you list out all the things that must happen, and consider how likely they are, you begin to understand why the future is so bleak.

To summarise, here is what must happen:

• A Democrat who can win has to make it to election day outside of federal custody
• A Democrat must overcome attempts to suppress votes, and win the electoral college
• They must overcome potential skullduggery by Dominion to manipulate vote counts
• They must prevent local and state officials from refusing to certify the election
• They must get SCOTUS to prevent ALL attempts to overturn election results
• They may have to overcome another fake electors scheme
• They must control the House of Representatives, despite all of the election challenges above (gerrymandering, end of the VRA, Dominion, polling place intimidation, fights over mail-in voting, etc…)
• They must get the House of Representatives sworn in and seated by January 6th.
• They must get the Vice President (presumably JD Vance) to certify the election
• They will likely have to get Republican Senators to defy the administration at great personal risk to vote to certify the election
• They must avoid or prevent Trump from using law enforcement, the military, or the mob to prevent Congress from certifying the election results
• They must successfully get the Democratic nominee sworn in despite whatever efforts Trump and the GOP use to prevent it from occurring.

If any one of those things doesn’t happen, then a Republican ends up President regardless of how people voted...
