I also have my suspicions about Lin Wood, who has given money to Democrats on several occasions over the past 15 years. If Lin Wood is a Democrat pretending to be an insane Republican in order to help Democrats, that's some next level shit. I almost have to give him credit.
Remember, 10 years ago there was talk about the party imploding when the Tea Party became a big thing. Then Republicans lost 5 Senate seats they should have won due to terrible Tea Party candidates winning the primary, and that was the beginning of the end.
Now you don't even think of the Tea Party anymore. Some of that contingent converted into Trump followers, but it's not really the same thing.
In any case, I think the bigger civil war will be in the Democratic Party, between the AOC type progressives and the old school liberals. It's already stirring given the cabinet appointments which are mostly Obama-era entrenched government types.
Druff, you have been epically bad at predicting what Trump would do, as if he would magically stop being a malignant narcissist who has repeatedly abused his power as President to greatly enrich his family’s businesses, and is now facing a likely bankruptcy-inducing financial strain AND almost certain federal prosecutions for his many federal crimes if he leaves office without a valid blanket pardon.
So, regardless of whether Joe Biden is sworn in on January 20th, Trump has all of the incentives to keep up this stolen-election-conspiracy grift to (1) boost his chances of landing a lucrative media deal upon leaving office, and (2) so badly spoiling the public’s perception of his alleged unfair politicial persecution that it would be extremely difficult to seat unbiased juries in any criminal trials that may result from those prosecutions.
