Am I the only one worried about what BO may pull when Trump wins? Are we still capable of a peaceful transfer of power?

I"ve been thinking about this for years. Seems to me, when the party in power LOSES the election, they should be actually lame duck. Like, no power to pass new legislation. Or, just install the newly elected in two weeks instead of two months. Would require an update to the Constitution.

That change should have been made when Madison was making his midnight appointments on the even of Jefferson’s inauguration. It wasn’t then, and more than 200 years have passed.

What if BO simply decides not to vacate the premises when it’s time for Trump to move in?

I’ve no doubt that BO will sabotage everything he possibly can. But what if he just refuses to give up power?

Now that he’s turned us into a banana republic, I’m seriously worried about this.
