    While I doubt it, I certainly hope so. Shattering the empire from within may be the only hope humanity has, for preventing WW3 and nuclear armageddon.

    And for those theorizing the MAGA crowd could start it- sure, I suppose anything’s possible. But I expect it’s the neocon, establishment crowd (which is immensely unpopular and has a considerable chance of losing, and seeing the candidate they conducted lawfare against- Trump- throw the book at their equally-and-moreso guilty asses, will likely do some incredibly desperate and destructive things, especially if their beloved project Ukraine starts falling through) which stands the most chance of setting the country aflame.

    They have everything to lose; so does Trump, but the MAGA crowd doesn’t exactly hold great power, not in any way comparable to the establishment “blob” of Washington DC. And they’re the ones- not quite Trump in comparison- who are actively seeking out WW3 and setting fires across the globe at an increasingly deranged rate (Trump was similarly disruptive, but the neocons are clearly far worse).

    At some point, I suspect it will be the neocons who will set the US aflame- whether it be a revolution, a military coup, or the MAGA fascists, or (most likely) all of the above and more taking on the government. By all appearances they seem hellbent on terrorizing the world, and robbing their country and citizenry of their very future to do it, and eventually something will have to give.
