For years now, I have thought that Trump back in the White House was the scariest thing I could imagine. But I find that the idea of JD Vance as President is even scarier!

About this prediction: "If Trump loses, there’s gonna be chaos in the streets, riots in the Capitol and even the potential for a civil war." I know we're supposed to have fun with scary things on Halloween, but to get real for a second: the vast majority of people who support any political position complain on their phones or yell at the TV. We do have violent people, but they are the exception. I don't deny that there could be bad incidents, but they will be the exception, not the rule. If Trump loses, there will be attempts in courtrooms, election boards, and Congress to block a Harris win, but without a President spurring people on, I just don't think there will be an attack on the Capitol or extended "chaos in the streets", as opposed to random individuals yelling things. Of course I could be wrong, and law enforcement is undoubtedly going to be braced for the worst, but I think that it's lawyers and public officials who are going to be doing the "fighting."

Anyway, that's my 2 cents' worth. Which doesn't buy pretty much anything, but still ...
