Think about it. Biden gets sworn in. The Democrats keep the house and win the senate. All Hell breaks loose when they align the courts imbalance with two judges. This infuriates the hard core right wing base. Gun control measures, no matter how small, are passed. The gun nuts get even nuttier. Fox News runs story after story about a police officer getting shot, a woman who has second thoughts after an abortion, schools not allowing a religious symbol on the playground….you know the rest.
Trump takes to social media and rallies shouting “I told you so. You abandoned me and now Hell is here!!!!…..Elect Me In 2024 or this will get worse.
It is in Trump’s personal best interest if the Republican Party loses the Senate.
And we all know that Trump only cares about Trump.
I hear you. I think it’s more complicated than this.
I think Mitch McConnell’s senate is not going to confirm ANY competent AG (or any other important cabinet member). I think that a competent AG together with a DoJ will end the political aspirations of Donald Trump or any of his immediate family members — there will be indictments and convictions for a variety of felony offenses. I think “sedition” is very likely to be part of that mix.
I think the riskiest time for America is the interval between today and January 20, 2021. While I appreciate this little fantasy break, I think we face a perilous two months fraught with existential danger to America and our way of life.
Sure, it’s far more complicated but in the mind of Trump, it’s never complicated…it’s only about him. A Republican controlled senate is not to his advantage. It does not place him in the spotlight. There is no incentive for him to help either Republican in the upcoming senate race.
Yes, I agree, this it a very risky time. Anything is possible, given the complete refusal of the Republican party to stop him, and a rabid base that wants him to burn the nation down.
It appears to me that too many Democrats are as afraid of him and his rabid base as Republicans.
It makes me fear for what comes after Mr. Trump is removed. Donald Trump is the symptom, not the disease.
