As joyful and reinvigorated as many people were by the turn of events in the election season and the public opinion poll margin that the Harris – Walz ticket is developing, I have realized with despair that it only increases the likelihood of a post-election coup that will make trump’s January 6, 2021 actions look like a walk in the park.

Rumor has it at the Democrats are assembling an unprecedented legal team to fight the steal but, for all my obsessive reading about the issue, I was not seeing much that was encouraging about the ability to prevent trump’s insurrection. People without scruples always have those who respect the rule of law over a barrel. It begins not to matter who wins the popular vote, the battleground states, or crosses the electoral college threshold.

Now, the first sign that the Democrats will be proactive instead of merely reactive and paralyzed. ( Schouten & Sneed via CNN )
