    If Biden wins, what do you expect to happen with all the MAGAs? How would you prevent another Jan 6th? What if it succeeded this time? How will you keep Biden accountable? Will you keep avoiding a fascist dictatorship every 4 years until the end of time?

    Trump will die soon. And as much as we worry about MAGA, they are largely the Cult of Trump. He’s silenced any other possible inheritors. We need democracy to outlast Trump.

    In the long term, the solutions are better public education and fairer media, but we haven’t even begun to work on that because of the immediate crisis.

    And if Trump wins? Will you give up without a fight? Will you let them turn the US into a fascist theocracy?

    It’s why I’m so glad I live in California. We tend to not stand for that bullshit. I can absolutely see a secession or even a civil war if they try to use federal troops to enforce Trumpian fascism.
