Interested in knowing what I mean?
Mandate of Heaven basically means there can only be one legitimate ruler and this ruler has the blessing of god….this idea started in China back during the Shang Dynasty 1046 BCE…..
That term popped to mind when I read something about the upcoming 2020 election…..
Donald Trump has made what he says are “jokes” claiming that he will not leave office at the end of his term on at least 27 separate occasions, according to one researcher’s count, sparking fears that he will refuse to step down even if he is defeated in the 2020 presidential election. On Saturday, the bestselling author of two investigative books about Trump outlined what he says is Trump’s “step-by-step” plan for holding on to the presidency, even if he loses in November.
According to Seth Abramson, the author of the New York Times bestselling book, Proof of Collusion: How Trump Betrayed America, Trump’s plan to remain in office despite an electoral defeat would not involve using the military or law enforcement to stage a “coup.”
Instead, Abramson wrote in a lengthy Twitter essay compiled by Thread Reader, the plot to reject the election results would unfold primarily through the media and the court system.

Do I think that this will happen?
Probably not…..but that said Trump does think his shit don’t stink and I would not put some silliness like this from him if he loses in November.
What are the chances?

Let’s hope not. He needs to go. He is a danger to us, and how anyone can still support him makes my head spin.

We had something similar, with the ‘Divine Right’ of Charles I. After the civil war he caused, they chopped his head off.
Best wishes, Pete.
