You Say You Want A Revolution

 I’m concerned about any post-election violence. But to be honest, I’m concerned about Covid-19 more. Besides: rebellion? From the same guys who plotted to kidnap a governor and never got past the talking stage?

Sure, some cranks might hit the streets somewhere in America , but “rebellion”? How many people poured into the streets this year after George Floyd’s death? Was that a rebellion? No, because few of them were armed, right? What about Charlottesville? Rebellion? Nah. Handfuls of cranks with guns demanding one state or another re-open? Was that even dangerous?

Yes, Trump’s white male supporters will be upset their dreams of hegemony have been dashed, but they’ll stay as dangerous as they have ever been. Besides, they’ll be busy:

No, I’m not kidding. How’re they gonna riot when Trump is telling them to come worship him? I honestly think his narcissism could, this time, be a good thing.
