“Signs of strain in the nation’s democratic system mounted Wednesday with less than a week left before the midterm elections, as President Biden warned that candidates who refuse to accept Tuesday’s results could set the nation on a ‘path to chaos,’” the Washington Post reports.

“Biden’s grim assessment in a speech Wednesday evening came as the FBI and other agencies have forecast that threats of violence from domestic extremists are likely to be on the rise after the election.”

If we have multiple election challenges after the election, those exit ramps will quickly be closed off.

use chaos so that people call for more control. It is easier and more effective to get people to call for the stability which comes from the control of a Strong Leader than it is to impose control over those same people.

we're covering the speech, I found a CBS site with a video link labelled "watch the presidents's speech live here."
