Yes, I agree that mass resistance may be necessary if 45 refuses to accept an election loss. But, if you remember, there was a lot of concern that he might mobilize his followers to violence after his expected loss in 2016, too...and everyone who was focused on that possibility received a rude awakening.

Right now, and until the last polls close on November 3rd, our focus needs to be on GOTV and every other possible step to ensure we don't get a replay of four years ago. Once the results are in (if they're favorable), we can spend a night celebrating -- and then be ready to hit the streets should 45 show signs of trying to hang on to the presidency regardless.

And even if the results are contested by these 2-year olds, Madam Speaker becomes acting president.

Don't let the door of Marine One hit you in the ass, Donny!

I expect the Republicans to try to make a valid election impossible (blaming the Democrats of course) and then trying a real Fascist takeover.
