I don't worry about things that don't happen. Trump winning isn't going to happen. Guaranteed.

Those who think the sky will fall if Hillary wins, did you worry about Y2K? Buy water, extra guns, etc.

That is what this election season remind me of. Worrying about crap that will never happen.
Especially when you complain about the last 8 years.
Obama pulled us out of the greatest financial disaster since 1929. Created by the Bush boy.

if Hillary wins and Congress is the same, this it will just be another 4 years of total gridlock. Racial bigots freaked and tried to get the guy(they would have used the n word) out of the white house.

Now the misogynist bigots will do the same trying to get the b-word out of the white house.

Republicans need to understand they cannot win being the party of misogynist racially bigoted white guys.

Cooperation and compromise gets things accomplished and moves the country forward. The political art of give and take seams to have gotten lost.

What a narrow individual you are. If you do not like a black man's philosophy /world view/actions, you are a racial bigot. If you don't like a woman's philosophy/world view/actions,, you are a misogynist bigot.

I don't support or oppose anything based on race or sex . I support or oppose based on philosophy/worldview/actions. And I fear that the same fear of name calling like you are doing here and that prevented a predominantly white male legislative branch from justifiably calling out the RACIST BIGOT in the White House will be repeated with a deplorable CRIMINAL FEMALE BIGOT in the White House. When one silences the valid criticism and justifiable opposition to unconstitutional actions and destructive policies because one has a darker skin than the majority or a vagina instead of a penis, then the abuser, the racist, the hater of gender is the supposed victim who possesses the IRON FIST.

Your comments reveal that you are an obvious BIGOT. Or you are possibly being purposely absurd to point out the insanity today that passes for a free country.

I can see civil unrest no matter which side wins. If Hillary wins, it would not be immediate, as her opponents tend to be more law-abiding; it would be her actions after taking office that would set off a groundswell of protest from the citizenry (and not all conservatives). The trigger could be war, further gun restrictions, higher taxes, open borders -- maybe something else.

If Trump wins, I see more immediate violence, from minorities, illegal immigrants, LGBT people, muslim radicals , welfare recipients -- anyone who has made strides under the current administration. They imagine that Trump will undo everything that has been done for them. He won't. No politician has ever undone much of anything.

So preparedness, yeah -- expect violence. We'll probably see a good deal of it in the next 4 years. Some people have made fun of me for coining the term, "weather preppers". They may be about to find out just how important it is, to keep an eye out for which way the wind is blowing!
A weakened/divided country is easy to conquer. Not entirely sure who the conquerers will be, but it will start at least with cyber. Our entire Western life relies on e-communications. It will become easier to take down our e-communications, hack us, etc. Officials like Hillary have made our security porous, too. We may become the "late great America." Civilizations at least as advanced as ours have been subjugated.

What I fail to see is that those (educated!) who see the liberals as the culprit just can't see the forest for the trees. They cling to their worn-out conservative values, which are really legitimate, projecting onto a sick candidate those values that he does not passionately, honestly embrace. How they get suckered in by his pomp and offensive and incompetent circumstance is beyond me.

That is not to say we could not use a really, really decent Republican candidate from the business world, however. I would bet that with that, many dems would go that way.

As to the OP, our country is failing no matter who gets in the WH. Everyone's preparations will be different according to her/his personal means and abilities. Whatever we can do we should start doing. JMO as usual.

He squelches and overtly abuses the media, free speech, and investigative journalism. He will probably launch his own media machine when he loses. And then the country, with its liberal bias and conservative (if that's really the right word) backlash will be a country of real dummies, brainwashed by the subjective and selfish agendas of both parties. Without public access to facts (not spins), we are a democracy in one of the late stages of failure. ( prepare to bug out/create independence in some way or other)
