I am wondering if it will happen again

I'm waiting to see (if Trump wins) how many people actually leave the USA.
Not to mention how our favorite Harris supporter reacts.

Nothing like watching the Circus in this thread for entertainment!

It was very funny.

The aftermath of this election will turn ugly, little doubt on that. Especially Trump has prepared the ground in advance for his "they stole the election" narration in case he loses. On TV they said voting results could be contested at court in up to 19 states, in worst case.

Question is whether the rifles will stay in the locker. On TV they said over 60% of Republican party members hold gun licences, and 40% of Democrats, and the latter is just since recently, in a reaction to recent years. - Armed mobs were seen at voting points already the last time.

Possible there will be a new president in January. But certain it is not. It could be months, if things run really bad. And its not even especially unlikely.

No matter the results, I already now offer my condolences. This election will know no winner, only a big looser - the people.

Rgr that and it was no surprise to see security fencing being erected outside the White House yesterday and reports of the National Guard being put on alert.

(we have to pay this public TV (mandatory fees) for the public TV to stay "independent, impartial, balanced and objective"

)

I hope to see this again:

Good advice. Popcorn and beer is ready, so let it come
