Democrats in the US could usurp power by military means, expert says

[Regnum] If Kamala Harris loses the US presidential election, the Democrats could start a third world war to seize power by military means, political scientist and military expert Alexei Leonkov said in a conversation with IA Regnum.
In theory, of course it is possible. I wouldn’t bet actual money on it though. Not with the current shape the US military is in. | On October 13, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said he was worried about the next three to four months, a period during which the United States could find itself in a state of global war because of the current government.
"There are concerns that the Democrats, realizing that they are not winning the presidential elections, may go to all lengths. That is, bring the situation in the Middle East to such a state that it will be necessary to introduce martial law on US territory. Well, that is, they will actually try to usurp power through a conflict in the Middle East," Leonkov is sure.
There are alarming trends that point to such a scenario, the expert believes. The current US administration publicly condemns Israel, prohibits something, and behind its back finances and supplies weapons to the army of the Jewish state, the political scientist said.
"The Democrats can play on this conflict. They have done a lot to hold on to power at any cost," the expert said.
Acting as intermediaries and suppliers, the US has chosen a very convenient position for itself, the military expert believes. By sending money and weapons to warring countries, the Americans do not send their armies there, which is extremely important for the population of the States. But Trump points out that the degree of escalation is constantly increasing. This will inevitably lead to a third world war, which is already a negative prospect in the eyes of the Americans, the political scientist said.
Speaking about why Trump is focusing on the next three to four months, Leonkov recalled the procedure for the transfer of power in the United States.
"The three or four months that Trump is talking about are October, November, December and January. The official procedure for the transfer of power will take place in January. If Trump wins the elections that will take place on November 5, he will not be able to govern the country right away. And during this time, anything can be done," the political scientist said.
As an example, the expert recalled the situation that occurred at the end of the Trump administration's term after the presidential elections in 2020.
"It is enough to recall when Trump lost the election to Biden, his administration was still in power, the storming of the Capitol took place. It was provoked by the Democrats, organized by the Democrats themselves. They then tried to use this storming to start a criminal prosecution of Trump. What the representatives of the Democratic Party and their entourage can do fits in perfectly with the logic that Trump follows when making these statements. The words about the third world war are not just pre-election statements, but an opinion that reflects reality," Leonkov summed up.
As previously reported by IA Regnum, back in 2019, the now deceased politician Vladimir Zhirinovsky predicted events in the Middle East, stating that they would make people forget about Ukraine. The former leader of the LDPR specified that it would be a third world war, and also said that there would be no US presidential elections in 2024.
