weekly outrages of Trump and his not-so-merry band of thieves that one or two more instances won't merit more than some sporadic outrage and 24 hour news coverage.

The RWNJs have been killing people for decades. Trump losing will bring a new wave of McVeighs and his ilk.

Trump losing is going make some of these people snap and there will be more violence than there already is.

I fully expect to right wing domestic terrorism to jump in this country.

Trump unleashed these a-holes and I don't think they are all going to slink to the background this time.

Disheveled, out of shape, not very bright, not a disciplined fighting force. They will want to go home after a couple days, sit in the recliner, yell at the kids and wife and drink beer! And of course tune into fux snooz.

Think armund buddy and his armed take over. After 2 days they were asking for supplies...toilet paper, computers. Some grit and determination there
