It seems many are of the same mind about what happens to the chump, post-January 20:
An ex-Manhattan prosecutor has warned that “subpoenas and seizures” await President Donald Trump following his presidency
Daniel R Alonso, who acted as Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance’s top deputy from 2010 to 2014 and is now in private practice, made the projection toThe New York Times.
“There are subpoenas and seizures and documents all over the place, as well as constant meetings with lawyers,” Mr Alonso said, adding, “It would certainly not be pleasant for him.”
The comment comes as part of a report by The Times considering that Mr Trump is more vulnerable than ever to a pending grand jury investigation by Mr Vance, a Democrat, into his business and his taxes.
Mr Vance argued in September that allegations of tax and insurance fraud justify a grand jury probe into the president and his businesses.
The investigation has been long drawn out with appeals and court hearings over the president’s tax records and financial documents having lasted for more than a year.
They have argued that “mountainous” allegations against the president “could establish crimes” including tax and insurance fraud and falsification of business records, among others.
The Times report notes that the Constitution bars lawyers from prosecuting a president while in office, but it is unknown what will happen with the case when the president departs the White House.
“He’ll never have more protection from Vance than he has right now,” said Stephen I Vladeck, a law professor at the University of Texas.
“Vance has been the wild card here,” Professor Vladeck added. “And there is very little that even a new administration that wants to let bygones be bygones could do formally to stop him.”
Danny Frost, a spokesman for Mr Vance, declined to comment when contacted by The Times.
The president and his legal team are currently appealing a US District Court ruling to comply with subpoenas for roughly eight years’ worth of financial statements.
Mr Biden was declared winner of the 2020 presidential election by networks and news agencies on Saturday after securing more than the 270 electoral votes needed for victory. Mr Trump has yet to concede to the president-elect.
The president has spent the majority of his time following the announcement making baseless claims of voter fraud in swing states that he says cost him his victory and pursuing legal action.
Mr Trump has continually argued that the investigation is a politically motivated attack.
A lawyer for the president, Jay Sekulow, declined to comment through a spokesman when contacted by The Times.

Nov. 17, 2020 - How long can Trump keep disputing the election results?
Federal law sets the deadline for all states to certify their presidential election
results and appoint electors at December 8.
...various states all have their own deadlines to certify the election results, making
them official. In several key states, those deadlines are fast approaching — for
instance, Georgia’s is this Friday. [Nov. 20th]
...the Electoral College will meet and cast the votes that will formally make Joe
Biden the president-elect on December 14.Originally posted by sadaistI don't mind that one Nickelback song. I just hate the fact that they put it on every album 10 times.Comment

Links from Mother Jones:
"Georgia certifies on November 20, Michigan on November 23, Nevada on November 24, Arizona on
November 30, and Wisconsin on December 1. There is no deadline for Pennsylvania’s state certification."

Did this story get any traction in the US?
Georgia's secretary of state says Lindsey Graham suggested throwing out certain ballots
By MELISSA QUINN CBS NEWS November 17, 2020, 11:12 AM
Washington — Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger accused South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham, a Republican, of indicating he should throw out legally cast ballots, a suggestion that comes as President Trump trails President-elect Joe Biden by more than 14,000 votes in the Peach State.
In an interview with "CBS This Morning" on Tuesday, Raffensperger detailed a phone call he had with Graham, one of Mr. Trump's closest allies on Capitol Hill, during which he said the senator suggested absentee ballots from counties with high rates of nonmatching signatures be disqualified.
"When Senator Graham called, I just assumed that he was calling about the two runoffs for the senators, so I called him back," Raffensperger said. "During our discussion, he asked if ballots could be matched back to the envelope — the absentee ballots could be matched back to the envelope. I explained our process, after it went through two sets of signature match, at that point they were separated. But then Senator Graham implied for us to audit the envelopes and then throw out the ballots for counties who have the highest frequency error of signatures. I tried to help explain that because we did signature match, you couldn't tie the signatures back anymore to those ballots."
Raffensperger told "CBS This Morning" that he spoke with his legal counsel about Graham's comments and "decided the best action was not to get back and re-engage."
"When I went down this other path, I think the best thing was just to disengage and move forward," he said. "We want to make sure that every legal vote counts and every illegal vote doesn't count."
Raffensperger's phone call with Graham was first reported by The Washington Post.
