to make one accurate prediction: things will be less peaceful after November 8th.
If the Republicans take control of the House, they will at least try to impeach President Biden.
If they take control of the Senate, darn few Biden judicial appointees will be seated.
The knuckle-dragger white-supremacists/nazis/MAGAvolk will see Republican victories as a green light for street violence against anyone who disagrees with them.
On the other hand, if Democrats win---anything---the aforementioned knuckle-draggers will use the "rigged election" as their excuse to "kick ass and take names" at any gathering of "woke folk".
I'll be tickled to death to be wrong. We'll see.

Hillary Clinton and others for two years.

(34,112 posts)we just have to face the fact that they cannot lose. No matter what all the evidence says they will push and push and push. So far we have been able to handle it except for all the damned delay when we need to be progressing and the anger and frustration from our side. They get mad and then violent but we get mad and try to handle things. I just have to wonder how long we will be able to do that? The disruption of our lives every time there is some kind of contest is just so difficult to deal with.

The standard of victory is not a bunch of despicable and pathetic MAGAs going quiet. Won't happen for some while. But they're their own unfortunate consequences.
Agree.
