It doesn't matter if Trump accepts the outcome of the election.

That'll just show that he doesn't matter and neither do his below room temperature IQ cult followers.

would deal with them. I predict some grumbling but most of them are probably too cowardly to actually do anything IMHO. Trump doesn't inspire the kind of loyalty that could even produce a coup/revolution in this country.

Trump and what army? How exactly would that happen? Coups happen in countries without strong transfer of power laws. Not saying it absolutely couldn't happen, but not with Trump as the leader. He's not that good. He's not really good at all.

Plus, Trump is done with his followers the minute the polls close on election night.

and a big whiny baby. Once he loses bigly, he'll whine for a few days that it was rigged and blame Crooked Hillary, the RNC, the media, his campaign managers, Obama, etc. There will be a few protests, none all that big. Once a few important people talk Trump down, he'll go away quietly with his tail between his legs and the protests will die. My guess it will be Ivanka, a few Republican leaders and maybe somebody high up in the government - John Kerry? the Head of Homeland Security or the NSA?
