I highly doubt the left will do anything uncivil. How can they win back the country? Is it too late?

    Wait 2 years, and hopefully put people who will mitigate the damage into the positions listed on your ballot. All you can do now as a law abiding citizen is wait.

      I fear that the next election will be more ceremony than democracy once they have finished rigging it. At this point, I expect a third term for Trump - if he lives that long.

        He won’t. The goal was to get Vance in all along. He’s a docile pet for Thiel and co to implement their fascist agenda.

        Your fear of a 3rd term makes it all the more important to vote in your future elections. As the two term limit is imposed through a constitutional amendment, they’d need to create another constitutional amendment to reverse it. They need 2/3rds of both the house and the senate to agree to even get the ball rolling, as such, it is vital that you do what you can to prevent them from acquiring those numbers to avoid that situation.

        If it did happen, I wonder if the democrats would run Obama again.

          I don’t think they need a constitutional amendment, just Scotus ruling that it only applies to consecutive terms, for example.

            I know the supreme Court is heavily biased at the moment, but what possible logic could they use to get out of the 22nd amendment saying “no person shall be elected to the office of the president more than twice”? They can’t just add words there, and it isn’t ambiguous at all

            That’s the plot of the Civil War movie from this year. Nick Offerman and his nameless party started a 3rd presidential term.

          If Republicans remove term limits, it would be amazing to see Obama instantly get reelected for a third term in 2028.

          That being said, the USA may not get another legitimate election (help us).

          If it did happen, I wonder if the democrats would run Obama again.

        Fat fuck will die inside of 4 years. So, it’ll get worse.
