What Happens If SCOTUS Does Disqualify Trump?

Politico Magazine today published a number of takes about the potential fallout should the Supreme Court actually disqualify Trump from the ballot. Here’s the first one, authored by a Carnegie Endowment for International Peace fellow:

The question carries the implicit suggestion that we should worry about violence from a Supreme Court decision more than from other possible outcomes. In fact, violence is likely no matter what happens. If the Supreme Court doesn’t disqualify Trump and he continues his campaign, his speech and campaign style will probably generate so many violent incidents that a group of violence researchers recently drafted a forthcoming seven page document listing likely concerns, from increased hate crimes to violence against journalists.

While Trump’s ability to draw out large crowds now has been dented by fear of false flags, DOJ’s beheading of the Oath Keepers and other factors, his capacity will likely return after months of campaigning. If the court doesn’t kick him off the ballot and Trump wins, he has already telegraphed plans to create mass internment and deportation camps, which will undoubtedly lead to the untimely deaths of American citizens.
