I highly doubt the left will do anything uncivil. How can they win back the country? Is it too late?

    I fear that the next election will be more ceremony than democracy once they have finished rigging it. At this point, I expect a third term for Trump - if he lives that long.

      He won’t. The goal was to get Vance in all along. He’s a docile pet for Thiel and co to implement their fascist agenda.

      Your fear of a 3rd term makes it all the more important to vote in your future elections. As the two term limit is imposed through a constitutional amendment, they’d need to create another constitutional amendment to reverse it. They need 2/3rds of both the house and the senate to agree to even get the ball rolling, as such, it is vital that you do what you can to prevent them from acquiring those numbers to avoid that situation.

      If it did happen, I wonder if the democrats would run Obama again.

        If Republicans remove term limits, it would be amazing to see Obama instantly get reelected for a third term in 2028.

        That being said, the USA may not get another legitimate election (help us).

        If it did happen, I wonder if the democrats would run Obama again.

        I don’t think they need a constitutional amendment, just Scotus ruling that it only applies to consecutive terms, for example.
