Polling currently indicates many seats flipping to Dems. Assume for now that this happens and both houses of congress are majority Democrat.

What are the odds that Trump triggers some sequence of events that lead to large-scale domestic backlash? Some theoretical options

  • Refuse to accept results of election
  • Significantly escalate foreign wars
  • False-flag operation of some form. Bombing, orchestrated AI take over, infrastructure collapse
  • Orchestrate large scale rioting with agitators

What are the odds something like this occurs leading to a significant enough impact to negatively affect most people?

I think this is a pretty valid question especially for those outside the USA who don’t have context of what’s going on the ground. I have been wondering this too.

For me though it’s not so much of an oddly question more of a what are the likely outcomes? as TBH given the last two years clear decorum and rationality has disappeared.
