I voted two times for president if you don't count the insignificant throwaways to unelectable candidates in my determinative angst to vote against the "TWO" political parties.

On the other hand, while I suspect some democratically activity that might be violent, I suspect they will be outliers. For the most part I see the current coalition as milquetoast that won't be able to raise a cry to their beloved misconcepton that the constitution ever deigned to become a democracy. .

On the other hand, there could be a coup attempt by either side that probably won't succeed. But street violence possibly become brutal and I have no clear idea what the result of that will be.

I agree, that not just upon this island, but globally this concept of democracy is on shaky legs, but recent elections from India to the Phillipines to the Papuan elecctions all the way to Europe that people seem willing to give it one more shot.

If the same happens here, it will be the last shot US will probably grant to U.S. if it comes up short.

I remain in hope against the violence you forecast, as you probably already are aware, one of those willing to grant democrazy one more shot. And I' sure you will find that a naievty, with which I would have to agree.

Our real choice is the failed status quo vs. an alternative that many are calling authoritarian, the reality, hoever, is not the appealingness of a perspective autocracy but the lack of appeal for the status quo which will fail if you and I both are not vastly underestimating the ability to offer substantial reorganization should the democratic party win in November and offer a new vision of to people that ends ALL ENSLAVEMENTS of the us by the U.S.

At best, Biden's withdrawal has merely delayed the inevitable. The American Empire is dead, it just doesn't know it yet.
