What will happen now after Trump term? Can't they take up the case again?
- I don't think there will be an 'after Trump term' unless he passes while in office. Dictators don't usually leave office.
  
  He said he shouldn't have left in 2020. He figured if he had stay they couldn't have physically remove him. He is going try it this time.
  
  The constitution says he's no longer president Jan 20 no matter what. They'd have to change or entirely ignore the constitution.
  
  I think there will be, but it will be a putin-medvedev where trump steps down and becomes voice president but maintains control without breaking the rules. He will organise a succession for his favoured candidate as well
  
  I honestly don't think he'll live that long. Dude's lifestyle is atrocious.
  
  Unfortunately I think we've all learned the lesson of betting against trump
- Yes, if trump ever leaves office alive or doesn’t get an instant pardon from the next guy.
  Those are two very big ifs
  
  He also decided he could pardon himself last time, so there's that.
- The supreme court would likely get more extreme. I don't think hes getting in trouble with a 7-2, 8-1, or 9-0 supreme court.
