I think we will become even MORE divided than we are now, as moderate, conservative people who disagree that government is the solution to every single problem we face withdraw from this devolving society of ours and take an 'every man for himself' posture. Right now, it's hard to watch what is happening with our country. I don't know how much more of the projection and lies by the democrats I can take. On top of all that, I don't believe Biden will serve out a full term. I don't normally subscribe to conspiracy theories, but I do feel like this is a trojan horse scenario and Kamala Harris will, somewhere along the line, be elevated to the office of the presidency. As much as I would like to see a female president my lifetime, it would never be Kamala Harris. She is just as corrupt as he is and on a par with Hillary Clinton.

Will it be worse than the George Floyd riots?

How many cities will the sore losers burn/loot/riot?

Will it be confined to the inner cities, or are the suburbs at risk this time?

I say it's a 7. We will see some major violence and it will be worse than the Floyd riots. But it will be confined to the inner cities.
When he wins he needs to declare martial law and stop this crap.

Democrats use violence as a matter of course in their political agenda, as they do not believe in the Constitution or the Republic- they are totalitarian fascists and resort to the "toolkit" used by their fellow oppressive totalitarians.

The sad fact is that American dems fail to see what the dem party has become; any political party which supports and foments violence has lost the political argument and uses violence as their means of "persuasion".

The dems know that their political message has failed to persuade, so they must resort to other means of "persuasion".

Yes we are but, when Obama won, both times, we stood down. We have time on our side just like last time. That's WHY we have Trump now. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Lol, communists are not people. They are cockroaches.

If Trump wins in 2020, buy helicopter stock. Make the "Pinochet Purging" a pay per view event and help balance the budget.


Can't wait. Stocking up on popcorn now.

It's not the win--- it is how we get to that final call and the referee raises the arm and declares a winner.
There is going to be chaos this election- unless it's a landslide which I doubt, and many judges will be working across the states overtime, as he will sue them all if not in his favor. I expect a hard winter season for the USA.

FYI, Democratic Mayors are elected for almost ALL of the larger cities in the US. Most people live in democratic cities.

I think there is a better than even chance that we'll never know what the real vote total is and this election will be decided in the courts. There will be constant legal battles over whether or not boxes of votes that are found at the last minute and all just happen to be for the democrat candidate should be counted or not. Whoever wins, the other side is going to feel cheated. The democrats are breaking our electoral process because they can't stand the idea that they might lose. Many of them truly feel that any election that they don't win is illegitimate. If we don't give them power they will take it.
