    The whole narrative that our country will collapse into chaos and violence and disorder if Trump isn't re-elected is going to be far more effective than many people realize. You can joke about the convention speakers sounding crazy, but I'd take the narrative seriously.

        Can confirm from Brexit UK that stirring fear and prejudice works. Sadly. 😒

        People are enabled to feel they are somehow not responsible for their behavior by all the chaos. There is a work for this in Indonesian - amok.

        It's always about the midwest and the swing states. Republicans are good at scaring white people into voting for them.

        I get it but I have to wonder if the set people they're scaring the shit out of with their rhetoric isn't the exact same set of people they'e ALWAYS scared the shit out of with the exact same kind of rhetoric.

        Likely correct. If more voters were objective enough to realize how it's the people/policies they voted for which got the USA in its current mess then it wouldn't be a concern. But rather than admitting the error many just double-down on it.

        Seems like a commitment to law and order as well as a promise to address long standing issues with policing could fill the gap, instead of ignoring it completely. It's not hard to come down on the sensible side of this. People are tired of their communities falling into chaos.

        Putting forth policy ideas like the breathe act, are a non starter. Where is the sensible policy?
