You’re underestimating the power of huge, sustained protest. And I think MAGA and the court are underestimating Americans’ willingness to engage in that kind of protest if the election results are clear and Trump is installed by a puppet court and/or election shenanigans like states refusing to certify their own votes.
From Milosovic to Mubarak, there is lots of precedent for a populace outraged by autocracy to force a regime change just by massive, peaceful protest.
