<p>If Trump's base manages to bully their way into putting him back
in office, I think we will be experiencing precisely the canonical
"tyranny of the majority over the minority" in the worst way,
which of course, is what many of those insurrection-supporting
folks are feeling (righteously or not) about the current scene.
<br>
</p>
<p>In 2000 I wasn't happy to see Bush-II take the reins (or have
them handed over by the Supreme court over hanging chad nuances?)
but I felt it was an inevitable swing of the political pendulum
and besides "how bad could it be?", then came 9/11
(encouraged/forced by the hyper-hawk agendas of the right-wing
"mandate"?) and the Rummy/Wolfey/Cheney thuggery (with Bush as
their puppet front man?). </p>
<p>I was fed up with Clinton for more reasons than his mis-handling
of his young intern (my own daughters roughly the same age) and
felt Gore had some of his cooties by association. I still voted
for him (first vote since I helped Reagan knock Carter out of the
park against my ultimate best interests) but my morbid fascination
watching all of Florida and the rest of the country watching the
coin-toss land on-edge and blowing it as hard as they could to
knock it over (right or left) to their preference.</p>
<p>I was not happy with the way it turned out in the Supreme Court
but by that time might not have been that happy if the coin had
blown over the other way... However come the 9/11 response, Iraq
Invasion, I was embarrassed by my complacency/fatalism. Today
feels vaguely similar.<br>

This is exactly why Trump needs to stay on the ballot(s) and be defeated by a "normal" election. Every cry of Martyr is more fuel for the much smarter younger traitors waiting in the wings. Or, if he is elected again, those of us in a position to bolster whatever Rule of Law we have left will need support.
