I was thinking the same. If Trump wins, expect the left to go bat crazy insane. They will make the George Floyd riots look like picnic with Barney the Dinosaur. And the media will help continue to inflame it even more.
You know, it wouldn't surprise me if the left started civil war like conditions.
Unlikely. With the economy in tatters, the ineffectual virus response and the questionably legal use of force against the protestors, Trump has likely flipped the flip flop. We have gone back and forth between parties several times during the unraveling. There is more than enough to justify it flipping again.
The question is if the mood shift that occurs with a crisis repeats. During the unravelling the new values and old are debated, compromised and argued over. In the regeneracy the new values triumph. In the high the old values get sat on. I know of no reason this shouldn't happen again.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
