Nation NEEDLESSLY AT RISK

While there is some concern, my opinion is that this (which I can't read because there is a paywall) is venturing into the "fear-porn" territory. Trump can fire his cabinet, and other appointees, but he can't stop the built in procedures in the system and all of the day-to-day functioning of the DoD, State Dept, FDA, EPA, NSA, FBI, CIA, etc. The transfer will happen with or without him once the Electoral College votes are official. He's lazy, incompetent and clueless about how the government he is in charge of actually works, as evidenced by his pitiful results in 4 years despite having a Republican controlled legislature the first two, all the way up to not even putting together credible lawsuits to challenge the vote counts.

China, Iran, and Russia aren't going to risk a direct attack on our soil. China is all about the subterfuge, stealing intellectual property, and making aggressive moves in the South China Seas to take over Taiwan, Russia is invading their immediate neighbors and too busy being involved in Armenia, Turkey, and Sudan's issues to start any physical fight with us. Iran is funding ISIS terrorists in Iraq and Afghanistan to attack our soldiers there, which is nothing new.
