When Donald loses, the alt-right will erupt in rage and hate because they

are being set up to believe that the election will be stolen, that Hillary rigged it, that she cheated in the debates etc. They may incite violence and chaos. I believe they are being set up for this rage and hate. No telling what they will do. I sure hope I'm wrong.

Lets call this what it is- alt-right=fascist. Yes the fascists are being set up, you are quite right. We need to get our heads around the fact that fascists never give up. We beat their asses twice in the last century, and anybody who believes we aren't going to have to do it again in this century is delusional.

To be more precise, alt-right = fascist trolls with internet connections who are such cowards that they're too scared to carry out their threats against the United States because the federalized National Guard would hand them their collective asses.

A bunch more will get gun permits to make them feel better about themselves when they go out in public.

First Obama and now a woman, it's a bit much for the white wing to handle. But it's sweet to watch them as the world changes for the better.

likely. Truthfully, most of them will be satisfied just being deplorable people, oiling their gunz and being obnoxious. But, there might be a few Timmy McVeigh nuts too.

Trumpanzees are cowardly terrorists, judging by the way they act. Real men confront their adversaries to their faces; they don't target noncombatants and then run and hide.

The only reasons cops don't call them terrorists are the color of their skin and their reproductive organs: they benefit from white male privilege.

Most of these losers are stuck at home in mom's basement and will rage away at their keyboards after the election, but it will generally amount to nothing.

the keyboard rage might continue for a while if Trump claims (like I think he will) that the election was rigged and that he is going to sue Obama, Clinton, the Secretaries of State and Governors of every swing state, and that he's going to get all the best investigators to look into each and every claim of voter fraud.

The problem is, though, it only takes one or two people out of millions to become the next Terry Nichols and Timothy McVeigh.

By the repub's and their voter purge lists. Removing voter's when the names don't even match, ss# don't match, etc. DOJ should look at the voter fraud the repub's try to pull each election.

So, don't moon them on November 9th. Don't give the guy with the Trump Sticker next to his NRA sticker the finger the day after the election. Be careful where you park your car if it's plastered with Clinton stickers or other progressive stickers. I'd avoid shit-kicker bars and places like that for parking. In fact, I'd avoid them altogether for a few weeks after the election.

Expect nastygrams on your social media feeds if you've been supporting Clinton, too. You may be busy unfriending unfriendlies.

Don't taunt them. We will have won. Let them shed their bitter tears in peace. Be safe.

There are as many armed democrats as Republicans. And more importantly, most republicans would be first in line to put down some kind of uprising. Which will never happen.

Most people just do not follow politics like we do here. Which is why Hillary is going to trounce him. Most folks are starting to pay attention right when Trump is coming unglued.
