So we've had a very hectic period ever since the end of the Cold War that has just been building and building at an accelerated pace and just when it looked like everything was about to explode COVID-19 came into the picture.  In some regards that has slowed everything down on the surface but in reality all it has been was a lid to cover the boiling pot.

So what happens next?  What big piece is about to be moved OR what major crisis is about to explode and dump crap everywhere?  There are plenty of contenders.  Economic ruin and worldwide depression, real violence on the streets of the US, rampant inflation, stagflation, actual real military skirmishing with China, shutdown of the EMB, wide spread famine, Mad Max random violence, Russian territorial expansion, etc etc etc

OR do we just see things slowly simmer down and start down a long path toward normalcy with a new old white dude who likes to sniff female hair as POTUS?

A great deal hinges on what happens in the election, or if Trump tries to cancel the election. The country is a powder keg. My father said this is as bad if not worse than it ever got in the 60's. I'm inclined to believe him.

Can we just stop with the wild left wing conspiracies of trump cancelling the election. He doesn’t have the fing power to do that and he will not. Just like if he loses he won’t have the military prevent him from leaving the White House either.

I agree.  He'll almost certainly go limp in the middle of the Oval Office and they'll have to carry him out though.

It's funny that you act like he hasn't floated outrageous ideas like this before.   I won't be surprised at all if he "floats it out there". Just like he's floated out there running for a 3rd term. You guys will cheer him for trolling the libs and say we shouldn't take what he says so seriously.

Government printing more and more money they don’t have to give to people that don’t need it and plummeting the value of the dollar causing bread to cost $20 a loaf in the morning and $80 in the evening. Think Germany pre WW2.

Not sure who "you guys cheering” is. Just because I think you’re a mental midget acting as if trump has the power to cancel an entire election without getting an agreement from the other 2 branches doesn’t make me cheering for trump, it makes me a realist. He’s floated out a lot of stupid crap because he’s a moron. But just quit with the whole trumps going to put the country on lock down with military force to prevent an election and him getting out of the White House and create a dictatorship. 
 

just like if Hillary loses she will lose with grace and class but if trump loses there will be riots and protest and what happened.

proof will come out that we never landed on the moon, 9/11 was an inside job orchestrated by dan quayle and the world is flat.

 

IE4 will be completely vindicated and all of our heads will simultaneously explode.

I'll throw out a guess of turmoil in Iran. There always seems to be a rift over there but after Soleimani, new increased sanctions, relatively high deaths rate (including at least one higher up) from COVID, and the subsequent government/religious leaders trying to brush it under the rug they seem like a tinderbox right now. 

Not expecting US troops on the ground or anything but fighting with Saudi Arabia, uprisings, and/or regime changes would not shock me, and that would be a very tenuous situation for any POTUS to handle.

Lol so does the left think Trump is going to cancel the election?

Funny seeing it on the other side. The right didn't think Obama was going to leave office if Trump won

People thought Obama would try to serve a third term without being elected?

But Trump did suggest that the 2016 election would be rigged and he’s also mentioned on twitter serving more than 2 terms.  Obama did neither of those things.

China. 

There's going to be a massive backlash when China gets blamed (rightly) for COVID-19 and they'll probably respond by invading Taiwan or something

No. I think it will cross his mind. If it crosses his mind he might float it out there. He has a bad habit of saying whatever flashes through his dementia riddled brain. If he floats it out there, there will be a reaction.

I never said the election would be cancelled nor do I think he would succeed. I said he might try. If you think he won’t ever mention it, you have more faith in his self control than I do. 

Reading is fundamental.

I know, and that's why I ordered a three-year supply of freeze-dried food.

I’d bet money there’s a Trump tweet screaming about how Obama’s not going to leave the White House.

Reading is fundamental? Maybe you should re-read my post before you throw that out.

I never said that you said the election would be canceled. Hell I wasn't even talking about you. I specifically said "the left" and you claim you're not a liberal so why even think I was talking about you? I only quoted you because of the comment about canceling the election and that each side has idiots thinking the sitting president will cancel an upcoming election.

Now was it really necessary to be an a-hole?:rolleyes:
