I think the question is "when", not "if". When the Felon was elected, apart from being in shock & freaked out that so many were clueless and, let's face it, hateful and angry, I knew we'd need not worry about a 3rd term because I really believed, and still do, that he wouldn't live through this one.

Ever wonder if Steven Miller, who we all know is the mastermind behind much of what this regime is doing, is positioning things for himself to attempt a takeover when the Felon keels over? Yes, Vance is a useful idiot, but not one I think Miller can't handle. Just something I have been pondering.
