    Violent chaos in the US. One of three things will happen:

    • The Supreme Court sides with the states that want to remove Trump from the ballot. Trump’s minions cry foul and lose their minds.
    • Trump gets on the ballot but he loses to Biden again. Trump’s minions cry foul and lose their minds.
    • Trump gets on the ballot and wins. Trump and the GOP take that as a mandate to govern with impunity, and run roughshod over the country.

      Sure, violent chaos, but very localized. Even most right-wingers aren’t devoted to that tool.

      The ones that are… they’ll be trouble, as you say.

      Yes and it would very much fit the pattern:

      2020: pandemic millions die

      2021: january 6th

      2022: Ukraine is invaded by Russia

      2023: Gaza

      2024: ???
