    The real question is will the American Populous accept a dictator? Or will we tear this country apart from the inside if he wins?

      A depressing portion seem to want it. The left will protest I am sure but I don’t know if it will be enough.

        If the only thing the opposition does is the legally allowed “safe” protests, then no it will not be enough. Chanting “not my president” in confined, mandated areas will have the exact same effect this time as it had last time- nothing. We need to stop pretending the law is on our side. See: upcoming supreme court decision.

        The left in the U.S. is made up of dilettantes and academics unwilling to put in the work required for real change. They only know handwringing and criticism.

        There’ll be protests that are swiftly crushed and the vast majority of Americans will tune out and go back to voting for The Next Top Whatever and waiting for the next big movie.
