At first it did feel like we were headed toward the Regeneracy of consensus, and to some extent we are making progress. For example the popularity of the Governors, especially those who have implemented strong measures vs the continued unpopularity of Trump. But the thing is that the poll numbers always seem to come back to the 44% Red Minority vs. the 56% Blue Majority. That toxic paradigm persists even as the Pandemic rages on.
So, I think this is all coming to a head Nov 3. And no matter what happens, there's going to be trouble.
If there are obvious problems with the election, will the Blue states accept another sketchy Red win? If there is a Blue Wave will the Red staters accept it peacefully? I'm thinking No.
Well stated, and welcome.
