What is the End Game?

 What is the End Game? 

Has anyone considered the end game of the upcoming election? No, I am not talking about Thanos snapping his fingers and removing half the country which disagreed with your candidate.

But seriously, are we prepared and has anyone thought about the path we are headed?

If the toddler-in-chief wins another electoral college victory (legitimately or not) or if it goes to the state legislatures the majority in the left will be very upset to say the least.  The right won’t care about what happens to the left, as all the seem to care about is owning the libs.

 CBS says they care more about this than lowering taxes, controlling covid, and healthcare reform

So, let’s assume that regardless of the partisan makeup of Congress, Trump will continue to drive his own agenda as agreed upon at the RNC and have little or no resistance from his party.  He will continue to push the bounds of ethics, to evade the law, as no one has held him accountable to his oath of office. He will continue to prop up fringe groups, promote conspiracy theories and do anything else to support those who show him the love. So essentially four more years of the same.  Now that is apparently what the right wants.

What do they expect the left to do?  I am sure they are not going to roll over and just accept this minority rule of law, and I am sure they will still try to push their agenda in the states they still control much to the chagrin of 75% of registered republican voters.  Okay, now you are owning the libs, you got what you want, do you expect to crush them under your foot?  Do you expect to deport 50-60% of the citizens since you believe the hate the country?  As the right has no agenda other than to prevent the democratic agenda, and have no desire to effectively govern as they simply want to blow up the existing

As the liar-in-chief refuses to compromise or negotiate with the left, we can expect the ACA to be repealed, we can expect greater tax breaks for corporations with little or no break for individuals, we can expect the military complex to continue to grow, we should expect Social Security and Medicare to go away, more sick and dead from the mismanaged pandemic, and more POC killed in the streets where unregulated militias wander the streets claiming to be patriots charged with restoring order.  If they retain the senate then we can also expect more unqualified judges to be put into lifetime appointments.  They are trying to build a utopia that never existing while ultimately killing the basis of our democracy that has stood for the past 244 years in order to achieve a vision that never existed

Now, let’s assume Biden wins, we already know that some of Trumps most rabid supporters and others are certainly going to call into question the validity of the outcome. I can see anywhere from 30-50% of the country stating Biden is not a legitimate victor and will refuse to accommodate or agree to be led by anyone from the left. I do think Biden will attempt to lead from the middle, and will try to speak for all Americans, but if a large percentage don’t accept this leadership, what is left?  If the Senate remains in Republican control, we can assuredly see another log jam of nothing happening, similar to what the turtle promised during Obama’s inauguration and certainly what we saw with the nomination of Merrick Garland.

So What is the End Game?

Do the rabid supporters want the country to be torn apart since they claim to hate the left?

Do they support minority rulers who can do as they please as long as the system in rigged in their favor, turning the US into an apartheid South Africa circa 1980? 

Is the left justified to attempt secession claiming states’ rights and majority rules (assuming 45 only wins the electoral college and not the popular vote) in order to fracture the union?  

Do we descend into mob rule in order to overthrow a duly elected government? (This can apply to either side)

How do we avoid this?

America more divided now, than at any time since Civil War
