The first presidential debate is done and the aftermath has not been good for the incumbent, Joe Biden.

Some Democrat politicians and operatives reportedly texted CNN commentators with hopes that Mr Biden, 81, would step aside. Some floated the possibility of going to the White House and publicly stating concerns about him remaining as candidate.

But if Mr Biden were to drop out, it would be a free-for-all. There is no official mechanism for him or anyone else in the party to choose his successor, meaning Democrats would be left with an open (Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago from August 19-22.

    Tbh, I think that the US is done for, as a country, but it’ll take years for the destruction to progress through its different phases…

    Trump promised his followers they’ll never have to vote again…

    Quite the promise, isn’t it?

    Quite the threat, from the perspective of all who aren’t his followers…

    Canada, EU, Down Under, other Commonwealth countries, British Isles, etc…

    Get out before 2031, as by then it’ll be too-late, & everything-turning-to-hell will be going on…

    IF some anti-Trump appears on the world-stage, decide if you want to be with them, & find some way of moving there…

    The US Civil War Part2 should begin in 2032 or so ( it seems to be a 7-8y cycle for each stage? ), & it should run for 7-8y, until the US is completely-destroyed, roughly 2040.
