I hate the Democrats, but I have had the opportunity to travel overseas fairly widely, and part of my job was to pay attention to both US and global events, so I have seen how countries can go from stability to dictatorships seemingly overnight.

I have never been more frightened of any US president or any US party than I am of Donald Trump and the current Republicans. Trump and his goons are actively encouraging a Civil War in order for him to stay in power - no US president has done that as far as I recall.

And a second Trump term won't just be the loss of clean water/ clean air/ food safety standards - because that's already happening.

A second Trump term will result in the absolute corruption that I have seen in other countries, the stifling of dissent by violent means, hatred and strife between ethnic groups and religions, the triumph of the 0.01% over the 99.9%.

We will be a country destroyed if Trump wins again (or seizes power), and I don't think there will ever be hope of America as we knew it somehow making it back to "beautiful."

Dude you are unhinged. If you hated the democrats you would actually see how much they lie. I'm not a big fan of Trump but saying he's instigating a civil war when it's proven that very wealthy progressive donors are the ones behind the rioting is just gaslighting. It's impossible for me to take anything you say seriously.

Why don't you look at my posting history to see how much I hate the Democrats? It's all there.

But the Republicans and Trump scare the fuck out of me, and I've been stuck in the middle of a bloody civil war.

I am convinced that, like in 2016, it's actually right wing donors and chaos enablers like Soros behind the riot funding. They're the ones who want Trump to win (Soros just wants chaos), and the sight of Democrat cities on fire certainly doesn't help the Democrats.

Notice how Hands Up Don't Shoot and BLM emerged during the last presidential election year and then disappeared until this year? The right wing Daily Mail, only during election years, has about six inflammatory article on often minor racial spats. The Karen meme emerges.

The first question detectives ask is, "Who benefits?"

Do the Democrats benefit from rioting? NO.

Also, do you listen to anything that comes out of Trump's mouth - not out of Fox "News," not out of Breitbart, but out of Trump's mouth itself?

Did Trump's TAPED interviews with Bob Woodward miss you?

There was a website running a lie count of Trump's lies and he's told hundreds of verifiable lies, often contradicting himself.

Trump has said that he's not sure if he's going to peacefully transfer power (I'm paraphrasing).

Trump has said he is going to put down Election Night insurrection.

Trump got rid of Post Office boxes, machines, put one of his corrupt cronies in charge of the Post Office and admitted it was to stifle voting by mail.

Trump is now trying to install as a Supreme Court justice one of the people involved on the Bush side in the Bush Gore 2000 election recount, and he's trying to do it before the election so she can decide the election if it comes down to mail in ballots, which, given COVID, it will.

BTW: The FBI found that it was actually Right Wing extremists that have actually done the vast majority of domestic terrorism in this country, and the Proud Boys are certainly jonsing for a fight.

But hang out on Right Wing sites, look at the comment sections - they are ready to use all their firepower to keep Trump in office, and they're the ones with the guns and the know-how to do it. I don't think they stand a chance, but I do think they can cause chaos, and from Trump's own statements, he'd welcome it.

After all, Trump is going to be prosecuted the minute he leaves office, and he'd rather take the US down than go to jail.

We will see if you are right or if I am, but again, I have witnessed firsthand countries go down, almost overnight. It can happen here, and I think it will.

"the stifling of dissent by violent means, hatred and strife between ethnic groups and religions"

It's the left that's doing that. They're the ones attacking/killing/refusing to serve Trump supporters, destroying businesses and implementing policies that are destroying cities (along with women's rights).
