    It won’t. It will be a scenario like WW2 all over again.

    Yes, years of hell and nightmares, but compare the Germany of today to the pre-WW2 Germany, it’s like a night and day difference. And Germany was nearly destroyed out of existence before it was rebuilt into what it is now.

    Nothing is ever over. What you’re talking about is a challenging time as opposed to “the end” or “game over.”

    Obviously the civil process isn’t working today. We will most likely have to fight even if the Dems win a few more election cycles.

      Who’s going to invade, occupy, and rebuild the US like the Allies did in Germany? The US is the most powerful country in the world, is the third largest by both land area and population, nobody has the resources for either the invasion or the rebuilding. American fascism would be a long lasting fascism with civil war as the only hope for restoring democracy, as much as we have it now.

        Mexico, Canada, Brazil, Cuba ;)

        and last, but not least, we ourselves will. Those that survive that is.

      Wait wait wait. So your high falutin protest vote plan is a success if Trump gets in, we devolve into WWII Germany, get destroyed as a nation, and rebuilt from the ground up?

      Holy baby with the bathwater, Batman.
