I was just thinking that she is probably going to win. Will be pretty funny too see the Trump diehards go into a full meltdown. The conspiracies will be even more crazy. Who knows, maybe they try to overthrow the government without a sitting president

    nowhere near as entertaining as watching smug liberals with huge “HARRIS WALZ OBVIOUSLY” banners across their house eat shit

    EDIT: here’s my case— Jan 6 was funny, sure, but not as funny as election night 2016 when that snot-eating creep John Podesta had to come out and tell all the crestfallen liberals to go home

      This, honestly I’d like to see some Jan 6 but with pussy hats, “I’m With Her/I’m Speaking” slogans, and radlib shit this time around. Though whoever wins, humanity loses (or rather the empire goes as usual- thankfully to its grave, however it might get there varies).

      “if you’re still in line, STAY IN LINE” and “she can still win if you, VOTE”

      Are, on their own, better than anything from J6…aside from maybe that lady getting domed and being outed as a secret antifa super-soldier

    I think Harris will narrowly win, and then the election will be contested. After that? Things start to get really funny.

    Genuine: What tells you she is probably going to win?

    From all the polls I’ve seen, it doesn’t look good for her. Last time I checked Trump was even doing exceptionally well in early voting, which is one aspect Dems usually dominate.

    I also agree it’s funny to watch hogs meltdown, but I don’t think it would be/can be any worse than what they already do/have done.

    Many already think she forced out Biden and/or has been secretly running things and screech accordingly. Jan 6 wasn’t a failure because they were actually peaceful protesters or whatever they cope with, it was a failure because they are unorganized and unequipped for that level of action, so I don’t see another overthrow attempt either, though obviously I would love to be wrong about this.

    Assuming somehow rhe dems don’t either blow this or then concede an election they won for the sake of “moving forward as a country.”

    It will be fairly funny to watch Maga try to do another insurrection using the exact same playbook that failed last time when they tried the same thing.

    "Patriots need to go to Washington to make their voices heard. Now I know I said this last time and then you guys did that, we accomplished nothing and then we immediatly called you all antifa and let you all get arrested and sent to prison and I’ve repeatedly dissavowed you, but please do the exact same thing again. Also I wont be able to keep the national guard from showing up so there will be meaningful opposition.

    Also we dont have half a dozen people who might have some kind of authority to throw a wrench in the works this time around.

    Please. "

      They do that again in 2028 and 2032, and every election after that, so much that “The Running of the Capitol” becomes a tradition. It becomes a corporate sponsored event with vendors and live music.

        eventually, it becomes so much part of the inauguration ceremony of a new president that when they dont turn up to “take the capitol” one time, america doesnt accept the newly elected president. and that’s when their system falls apart entirely.

    Chuds will do beer hall putsches. Again.

    Sure it will be clownish, but people will also die, and some of those that die may not be clowns this time.

    The only consolation prize to seeing Harris win is just watching some of the smuggest grins in the country meltdown. At the very least, while Harris is a fascist, enough libs know Trump is one too.

    Maybe it will make the 4chan crowd look not-so-invincible after all? IDK, but regardless maybe Harris will buy me four more years for an exit strategy.

    Fascists don’t care about elections or democracy. If they win they are going to push the country to a crisis and seize power indefinitely until they collapse. When they lose they’re going to push the US to crisis then seize power and seize power indefinitely until they collapse.
