Assuming somehow rhe dems don't either blow this or then concede an election they won for the sake of "moving forward as a country."
It will be fairly funny to watch Maga try to do another insurrection using the exact same playbook that failed last time when they tried the same thing.
"Patriots need to go to Washington to make their voices heard. Now I know I said this last time and then you guys did that, we accomplished nothing and then we immediatly called you all antifa and let you all get arrested and sent to prison and I've repeatedly dissavowed you, but please do the exact same thing again. Also I wont be able to keep the national guard from showing up so there will be meaningful opposition.
Also we dont have half a dozen people who might have some kind of authority to throw a wrench in the works this time around.
Please. "
They do that again in 2028 and 2032, and every election after that, so much that "The Running of the Capitol" becomes a tradition. It becomes a corporate sponsored event with vendors and live music.
Step away from the lathe.
eventually, it becomes so much part of the inauguration ceremony of a new president that when they dont turn up to "take the capitol" one time, america doesnt accept the newly elected president. and that's when their system falls apart entirely.
