No matter who wins the election, it's going to be a shitshow. We've known this. It is merely a question of to what degree.
Things are looking much better now than they were a couple weeks ago, but I didn't believe for a second this wild ride just stops after a Harris victory. If anything it will embolden them. They will go from "weird" to "outright treasonous on a massive scale" with even greater fervor this time around, I fear.
On the other hand, this time around, they have lost the element of surprise that January 6th had. We can expect this shit now, and that means the capitol police will likely be better prepared for shit to hit the fan.
