    And that person will make Hilary their VP. Odds that they make it out alive?

    There's nothing I can think of that would surprise me at this point. The possibility of Hillary being appointed VP to a new President, filling in for the elected VP who just couldn't perform-who'd have thought? Sort of reminiscent of Hitler in early '30s.

    Hey, but then who'd have thought that just writing, "Maybe delay the election?" yesterday, could leave an opening for China to delay the Hong Kong elections citing that very tweet today? Who'd have thought that a President of US would leave such an opening?

    I really don't think there is any way Biden would ever resign. He might die, he might start wearing a drool-cup and get shoved out of office with the 25th amendment, but he would not resign. I take the point, though, that whoever Biden picks as his VP has very high chance of becoming President very quickly. That's what makes me nervous. Biden would be a bad enough President, but someone like Kamala Harris or Stacey Abrams as President would probably try making all kind of radical changes to our country and cause multiple disasters.

    I just switched gears last week. Inventoried my combat/survival gear. Some of it's pretty long in the tooth. Already started replaced outdated stuff and looking at cool "new" (to me) toys we could have only have dreamed of when I was on active duty.

    I just see no reason anymore to put on my "happy face" and pretend this sh*t ain't happening.

    I figure the DNC "plan" is the threat of more anarchy/violence. It worked in Spain a decade or so ago. The Dems have a LOT of options right now, using the same tactics and strategy they've been using, since no one has stopped them yet.

    The Republicans have "We're not them"
