I told you a long time ago that if push ever came to shove that you were dead meat, Well, we are are almost there now that we're on a faster track so to speak. I figure your side (Democratic side) has about four years (maybe less) to mess up Washington DC beyond fixing at this point. After that, anything goes (no holds barred) pertaining to the Democratic side and winning the next war for American independence that follows is all that's going to matter at that point.

Your side will certainly have an advantage in the war if the Democrats nominate a candidate with a 3-17 horoscope score.

We already have the advantage in a war. Your current political advantage isn't going to matter in a war with America.

I don't see America on the brink of a civil war. Why do you, Classic X'er? Have you been reading The Turner Diaries again?

That doesn't surprise me. Ignorant and arrogant people don't see what's coming until it's to late. Why do I? I guess that's for me to know now and for you to find out as it happens. Eric and I are on the same page.

You, Classic X'er, come off as ignorant and arrogant. Your side wanted to nullify a free and fair election because you could not imagine people other than yourselves thinking other than what you believe unless stupid and deluded. I know the demographics of the vote. I saw a portent of a big loss for Donald Trump in the 2018 midterm elections. He had plenty of problems to solve, but not enough time or political acumen in which to solve enough of them. He solved the political problem of rural dissent about a trade war in which China reduced purchases of American farm products ... by throwing money at farmers through crop subsidies. So he bought the farm vote with the Treasury. Cuban-Americans started concerning themselves with local concerns that had been working on behalf of  Democrats, so his campaign smeared Joe Biden with allegations that he was soft on Castro.    

Real Americans -- which includes people who do not share your skin color, your culture, and your way of faith in God -- accept that we elect our President, our Congressional Representatives, our state legislators, and others. We do not depend upon coups and Putsches on the assumption that our (or your) side is right.

The same means that elected Donald Trump in 2016 got Joe Biden elected in 2020. You may have been distressed to see what looked like a win for your idol on the basis of early results dissipate as votes against him got counted last. In such states it was the absentee and early votes that got counted last. I voted in September rather than voting on Election Day as I used to so that I could avoid the deadly stalker nicknamed "Rona". You know, CoRONAvirus-19. 

Don't give me this nonsense about "Seventy-four million voters' voice was unheeded". The Presidency is not a power-sharing arrangement. Eighty-million people voted against him, and this time in a distribution closer to one in which those eighty-one million people didn't simply run up the vote totals in California, New York, and a few other ultra-liberal states.  

Oh, by the way... I got my first injection of a vaccine against COVID-19 on Wednesday. I have had some scary backaches. If you know what backaches should scare anyone my age about... I apparently had been careful about the Plague of Donald Trump. So far I have no complaint about the administration of the vaccine. President Biden treats COVID-19 as a dangerous enemy as if we were in a war. 

I got my injection from a soldier.  Joe Biden treats COVID-19 that seriously. COVID-19 does not occupy territory; it occupies bodies and kills.

Much that you say has unambiguous refutation in K-12 civics classes.  I paid attention in those and learned a few things. You? I am not so sure.
