Serious post here, what are your predictions? Do the US sign on for a subscription to Hitler or Hitler+? What makes you believe this?

My take: Harris eeks out a victory, based on the vibes I get. She may flip NC too. I think that second part because the overall trend of polling has had her slowly increasing on average there. AZ is flipping back to Trump this go around.

Second possibility I see is that the electoral college shenanigans the GOP is angling for in NE actually results in the first ever tie. Supreme court gives it to Trump even though he loses the popular vote. Libs say "ah well, never the less".

Either way, I think there's going to be hog riots in MI, PA, and NC if it flips.

It's gonna be Hitler+ and it's going to come down to Georgia, which just got some fucked voting rules installed. Election officials have to hand count everything before a certification date, and no one knows what happens if they exceed that date.

Oh good heavens, we counted all the MAGA counties first and we're out of time! the-republican

Yeah, I think Brooks Brothers Riot 2: Georgian Boogaloo is way more likely than libs think

I think Republicans got the lesson from 2020 that they have to look more buttoned down and legally institutional to steal an election and go through official channels and not rile the hogs up too much

More mission-accomplished than frothingfash barbarian

It's gonna be Hitler+

Which one?

I'm just glad Florida got shitty enough that nobody is expecting anything from it so it won't personally ruin a third election in my lifetime.

Plain vanilla Hitler doesn't need GA though.
