Summary

Donald Trump’s recent rhetoric and actions suggest he may be preparing not just for an election, but for a “slow-motion coup.”

Despite being seen as an electoral liability for Republicans, Trump has primed his followers with narratives of stolen elections and positioned 2024 as an existential battle. This approach parallels far-right populist movements worldwide, where loyalty is signaled through belief in conspiracy theories.

With ongoing lawsuits, targeted claims of “non-citizen” voting, and support from some judicial figures, Trump’s strategy hints at an attempt to disrupt and delegitimize the electoral process if he loses.
