Ban Fracking?  Of course she won't.  Big Oil loves Demodopes.  Lotta money in the campaign War Chest.  Only Green Fracking though, of course.  lol.

Oil, gas allies welcome Harris fracking stance — with an asterisk

The MSM hasn't called it yet, but right now  El Trumpo has 266 Electoral votes, just 4 shy of the necessary 270 while KaMama trails with a sad 216 or so.

So, probably no right-wing riots or Civil War, but what happens when he tries to fulfill his promises of Mass Deportations and how he is going to fund stuff like medicare and social security will be quite interesting.

Also interesting will be what happens with the various legal cases against him.  Will he immediately Pardon himself?  Will states with cases pending  against him continue trying to prosecute?

Generally speaking, I think we can expect a deeper descent from Fascism Light to a mere blatant and oppressive form of fascism.

I will say I don't think Life under KaMama would have been any better, just a different kind of political clusterfuck.

Collapse will continue and probably accelerate, so from that perspective it's going to give us plenty to talk about.

Trump again, the Democrats said goodbye to class struggle They said hello to global trickle down imperialism and goodbye to us.  It ended and we lost their love.  Now Stormy Daniels has to ranch in Russia.  Trump carries grudges.

Verrrrrry Interesting.

The entertainment value will undoubtedly be high.

Indeed. Good thing collapse has been taking its good ol' time so all us geriatrics can enjoy the show without much fear it'll ever get to us.
