The midterms are going to be a shit show. Fascists ain't gonna let America vote their way out of this. They know they're getting destroyed at the ballot box so they'll be doing everything possible. I have a deep pit in my stomach that it's going to be... very bad. I'll just say that.

    Wouldn’t be shocked if we were at war with Iran by then.

    Do you mean Venezuela? They're trying hard to provoke Maduro to respond militarily. If he doesn't, they'll just "Operation Northwoods" it to justify going to "war" so he can cancel elections "temporarily". Fuck this is such a dark timeline.

    I don't think the "don't change horse mid-stream" argument would help much with Trump. Pretty sure only his base believes he has a spine enough to lead through a significant conflict.
