I'm pretty sure the Deep State knows about this. Half the world is praying for this to happen. How could they NOT know if it is actually coming. Hell, I would even think they are afraid of it even if it was never planned.

The push for him to resign or be impeached is the #1 reason I think this is going to happen and they know it’s about to happen.

They are firing all weapons that they have access to.

They know about it as a technically-possible, but genuinely-regarded-as crackpot conspiracist pipe dream. That’s it.

Saying “they know about it” or “how could they not know _____ is coming?” implies too wide of a margin for error, speaking realistically. They cannot prepare for everything that could happen, regardless of how many could/would say “they should be able to see this coming”.

There are only a few general possibilities at this point. Trump might have no plan and be prepared to lose/concede. He might have a plan which doesn’t succeed (either due to DS’s defense, or faults in the plan itself). He might have an elaborate plan which has a high chance of success. Just a few options. However, the potential paths for successful plans vary so much, including in extremity, that the Deep State might be genuinely caught off guard by some of them, and possibly lose as a result. They are not invulnerable, and never have been.

If Trump has a winning strategy, it would undoubtedly involve mastermind deception of what he actually plans to do. That might include gaslighting the Deep State on whether this Qanon-style ending is a serious possibility. It may very well be, despite fucking everything! Lindell’s little “slip” here, which was presumably written off by the DS as misdirection, could be exactly what happens to reach victory. So the misdirection itself could be a misdirection, discrediting this possibility. It’s truly limitless, the levels of deception concealing the intention.

Maybe his actual plan is comparably as extreme as this one! Might involve invoking the Insurrection Act and whatnot, but not other things.

Maybe it’s half as extreme, and only involve some lesser elements.

Maybe Trump is shooting for the absolute, bare minimum of extremity that would be required to stop Joe from being inaugurated and keep the presidency. It might involve happenings/possibilities that no one has been speculating about, but which the Deep State is unprepared.

The point is, if he keeps them guessing, and stops them from being able to effectively prepare for a counterattack against his true plan, he is more likely to be successful.

Trump’s attack will come when the enemy does not have time to counterattack.

The Last Move advantage.

Agreed. This is why I believe Pence’s apparent betrayal was planned and otherwise expected by DJT.

Dems would have pulled strings and found an option for recourse, even if Pence did what he could have done. So why waste time making pointless moves?

The apparent betrayal and accompanying optics could serve a purpose in advancing his real plan. Yes indeed, the Dems have made every move they can, and are now waiting on the clock. It’s up to Trump to make a final move that is effective, and which leaves them no opportunity for recourse.

So Eastern Christian Epiphany (day before inauguration) hope you’re right.
