    Simple:

    1968 - The sitting president, embattled over poor performance, steps aside leaving a vacancy at the convention in Chicago, which, absent a primary process, devolves into chaos involving protests and police:

      FFS What vacancy? The “sitting president” doesn’t even consider this as big of an issue as you. Is this more of you injecting a story that doesn’t exist? Kamala has enough votes for the nomination and is polling well so your point is more Hillary style nonsense?

      So is the narrative that this isnt democratic and people will revolt? Or is it just a Chicago thing? Or is it just you?

        It’s called “remembering history.”

          How many times are needed to “remind” you?

          Your attempt at “Remembering” history doesn’t mean you’re preventing it. Shit you are the one PREDICTING history! Again what was your point?

          Remember berries from a self-proclaimed prophecy?

            I would say, every time there’s an event that (so far) is 80% the same as an historical one, and the remaining 20% is in the very near future.

              Sounds sure, and sounds foolish.

              Are we talking about an “event” like a meteor shower or a full moon?

              Does it coincide with the fall or a human sacrifice? Should the village be concerned?

                When the alternative to failing to heed history is political violence, it always makes sense to be aware of precedent.

                The alternative is standing around after the fact moaning “But how could this happen??!??”

                Well, you see, in 1968… you know the last time this happened…
