    They’re acting like trapped animals

    GOP has the majority of governors, state legislatures, and federal judges. Even if they get washed like in 2008 (and there’s no reason to predict that kind of Dem landslide without a charismatic figure like Obama on the ballot) they aren’t going anywhere.

      I didn’t say they were a trapped animal. I said they’re acting like one. You want some nightmare fuel? Trump loses, horribly, and tanks the down ballot races because he sucked up all the campaign money for his legal bills.

      Instead of accepting the Democratic trifecta, Republican Governors, legislatures, and Judges just decide Trump and all the other Republicans won and send his electors to D.C. Understandably, the deep blue cities in the Mid West and South East riot. This is used as a pretext for the Governors to suspend civil rights in those states and we’re now in a stand off between Biden and the red states.
