For me personally I care most about what happens outside of the US. They're far too important on the big stage to have someone who can't type in charge.

If Trump didn't represent 50% +/- of popular opinion then he wouldn't be where he is now. The thing to fear is a much sharper, more competent head growing back in its place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even alt-right types like Shapiro are now talking against how dangerous Trump's words are. He's crossed a line that most of the Republican party seems to be clear on.

The Fun Factory Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 The Democrats just need to fund about 5% of the population to move from liberal states and settle them to the swing states to live in. Simples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fine, but as we're seen, this can easily overspill, as seen with the failed plot to kidnap a sitting governor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True that. The issue for these gun toting idiots though is that most, if not all, the financial centres in the US are in Dem states. Population, production, foreign ties etc are all in Democratic favour. A civil war wouldn't work for rural America as they simply don't have the manpower and money to fight a civil war. It'd be like the real civil war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he's completely blown it with Supreme Court stunt imo. My point was finding a more acceptable and capable face for Trumpism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vast majority of the military are Republican (the veterans, too) and they already control the equipment. I wouldn't be at all confident about how that would turn out - but not suggesting its remotely likely to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sources claim it to be much closer other than with veterans than most people think. It's a republican slogan that the military votes for them, but that's not right.

Important to remember in this discussion that a large proportion of military people are African-American, which obviously has a big impact.
