Civil war, armed fighting: is this a real possibility, just fear mongering, or something in between?

Interesting question: would stealing an election necessarily make someone a dictator? . Let's say JFK stole the election from Nixon--did the US operate as a dictatorship thereafter? Let's say Biden stole it in 2020 (he didn't)--are we now living in a dictatorship?
Does Biden currently possess absolute power? He has to deal with different factions within his own party never mind the cynical, unscrupulous politicians on the other side of the aisle.

No. He is far from being a dictator functionally winning or losing an election.

The previous twerp on the other hand... with Russian help and a rabid following and enablers....

No. Stealing an election would not be enough. Stealing enough elections as to turn the Congress and eventually the courts into rubber stamps would be required to give rise to an actual dictatorship.

The key will be the enablers and the economic, social, cultural conditions in building the cadre of enablers. And it goes beyond the courts -- ala the election officials in Georgia. Or the military as the case in a few neighbouring countries here.

Canadian professor says the US will be under a 'right-wing dictator' by 2030 and his country 'needs to prepare' for the 'collapse of American democracy'

  • Professor warns of Trumpist threat to US democracy and impact on Canada
  • Thomas Homer-Dixon sets out his waning in the Globe and Mail newspaper
  • He says American democracy could collapse by 2025, ushering in a dictatorship
  • His analysis is based on the idea of Donald Trump running again in 2024 and Republican legislatures refusing to accept a Democratic victory
  • 'A terrible storm is coming from the south, and Canada is woefully unprepared'

I'll happily bet $10,000 that isn't going to happen. Who wants to take it?

Did you think that in 2017 that there would be some insurrection at the Capital a few years later? These think events rarely if not never happen in isolation. Its creeps.
If Trump wins the next election, do you think it will be the same crap or worse?

And yet not on person has been charged with inserrection. Its nothing more than a cnn buzzword to get viewers. Other than hardcore lefties nobody thinks thats what it was and it wasnt cause still no inserrrction charges. But whatever dems can stay obsessed.

"inserrection" isn't even a real word, much less a crime, so that might explain why no one has been charged with it.
 
At this point TINA: "should Trump be the nominee, and should he be reelected in 2024, the forces arrayed against him will suffer a nervous breakdown that will make the anti-Trump hysteria of 2016-2020 look like an Oxford Union debate.

This board would be beyond funny some would need to possibly be sent to a mental hospital. You know who you are.
I will be on a beach by then.

I agree with most of what you post and I certainly wouldn't bet 10k. But if Trump returns to power and the Taylor Greene's and Jim Jordans take over combined with Trump loyalists taking over at the state level, things could get weird.

You think Trump wouldn't be above saying he deserves a third term since he was robbed in his eyes? Would enough Republicans stand up to him?

Still hoping my guy Adam Kinzinger finds a way to catapult to the top at some point. Like his combination of military experience and integrity.

Whatever you need to do. Biden would not win but there is zero chance he will run again anyway imo. So I guess the best the dems got is Harris who people dislike ever more than Biden.
Just hating Trump is not going to work in 2024. If things continue as is people are not going to vote for a dem no matter how much they hate Trump.

It can now be safely said that President Biden received no Christmas/New Year "Feel good holiday bump" associated with presidents approval ratings. On the contrary, Biden is at all time high for Disapproval

RR has Biden's approval at 40% today. 5 points lower than Trump had at the same time during the Russia Hoax. https://rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/biden_administration/prez_track_jan11
 


I think the interviewer does a pretty good job of pushing back on what I found to be a disappointing analysis from the interviewee.
