Afraid of the unknown....
The problem is what is known. He is a liar and cheat who routinely breaks contracts. He has boasted about bribing people. None of this is secret.

The Trump voters seem oblivious to this fact. Astonishing isn't it.

If it's a funny system, it's also associated with unfortunate human consequence, essentially 1% of the population controlling 70% of the wealth of the nation while the other 99% fight over the remaining 30% of wealth.
That's not funny, that's tragic by anybody's definition of the word.

Two sides of the same counterfeit coin really, both tainted by scandal, sexual innuendo, not to mention the rest of the crap they were associated with.
Which begs the question how the hell they were ever even considered for the position of POTUS?

He could die of natural causes, like eating a bad steak.

Unless he completely divests himself of all his businesses he will eventually run afoul of the emoluments clause. He will also need to remove his name from buildings all around the world or run the threat of terrorism. Can you imagine him doing that?

Has anybody explained how it is the Illuminati/TPTB/Whomever have been able to get their people into office for every other election yet somehow this time they weren't able to?
Thread after thread with this "Trump isn't the man for TPTB" claim, yet not one of you has been able to explain why it is that this all-knowing, all-controlling network of shadow brokers has been able to control everything except for this one thing that you always say they control.
Identity politics, partanship over country, and confirmation bias.
Remember... before Trump "won," the (s)election it was rigged. Bought and paid for. Votes don't matter/aren't counted correctly/are tampered with. Polls are manipulated and push a false narrative.
But after Trump "won," he won by a LANDSLIDE. Epic win. YUGE turnout. Considered to be the "underdog," (LOL).
In layman terms, people have suddenly abondoned the notion of TPTB, of an NWO, because a Republican is now in office... and according to the diehard fangirls of partisan politics, Republicans are immune to corruption/deceit and its solely isolated to the left.
At least that's how I see things based on the comments I read and reactions I see.
The OP hasn't been around terribly long and I couldn't find anything in their post history to indicate being a Trump supporter so I'm not sure what the point of your strawman is.
My point is that it's a common conspiracy theory that elections are rigged and the POTUS is selected by one group or another. That theory predates Obama.
Taking both a) the OP's apparent lack of partisanship and b) the theory crossing party lines, I'm perplexed as to why you're trying to turn this into a Republican thing. I'm sure you want to score some political point or something, but I'm genuinely looking for an answer to how it is elections can be rigged and controlled except this time TPTB weren't able to actually able to control the election.

If he steps on too many of the wrong toes the ''Powers that Be'' ,will off load him same as JFK ,''They'' will ''set up'' a ''Republican'' supporter [Patsy mind controlled ],who has become disgruntled that ''The Don '' has lost the Original plot ,he will be a loner ,a gun owner and lives alone in a dingy apartment ,he will use either a M16 or AK47 something easily identifiable by the Hollywood educated masses ,his apartment will be full of Political material on Trump ,gun related material etc .They will have actors to make fake statements about him on the News ,''He always said he was going to shoot a Politician '' .''He was always mumbling under his breath about killing someone '' , ''i knew he was a nut ,just waiting to go off'' .The Democrats will go wild in the street celebrating the death of Trump, completely opposite to what happened after JFK was killed .The Assassin will either be shot dead or shoot himself ,so he can never talk.Then there will be a major crack down on guns ,security ,more laws ,more restrictions ,less freedom ,etc.

Donald Trump favors the Greater Israel faction; this guarantees increasing violence in the region. His remarks about ISIS suggest he will increase the bombing in Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan. Trump was definitely not the "peace candidate."

ISIS is just the manifestation of an idea. You cannot remove an idea with bombs. You are misinformed about Israel's attitude towards Syria. Israel prefers to be surrounded by peaceful strongmen rather than unstable, failed democracies. The Greater Israel faction has the potential to devolve into genocide, and its ascension presages a more general war in the region.

Well everybody told me he wouldn't be the gop nominee. Then they told me he would never beat Hillary. Then I heard he will never make it to inauguration day. Its getting close.
I don't think, at 70, he went through all this trouble just to be assassinated.
