Unlikely, but worst outcome would be..

Biden wins, passes away shortly after and we get Kamala. During 2016, Kamala could not get out of single digit approval ratings, she was PKd after Tulsi wrecked her for race baiting.

Not sure how the country would handle that


I sort of like the idea of how low can an approval rating get. I might root for this scenario

Covid money was largely spent under Trump. There was a colossal amount of waste and outright fraud, so we can't just hand-wave it away as saving lives.

Biden has spent far too much (trillions too much), and whether it's the Orwellian "Inflation Reduction Act", student loan debt, or Ukrainian aid we know that none of those help. Benefiting select companies by spending money you don't have is inflationary. People are upset about inflation. But what's really sinking Biden is that he's completely unaware of how mad people are.


covid money is all we hear about for inflation, when in reality covid caused the most widespread shortage crisis on ALL good for the entire world economy of our lifetimes. all goods from all sectors in all nations had shortages. in a shortage price goes up, and that's where inflation comes from. inflation hit nations and still does that didnt give the population even a single penny of covid relief funds.

global inflation hit 8.8% in the pandemic.

That's one of my pet peeves. I frequently saw people blaming a single $1200 check to people in need, but PPP "loans" that had basically 0 requirements cost us $800 Billion with like 95% of them being forgiven. It was common occurrence to see people bragging about fraudulently buying luxury items with these during those times too.

I wish it was realistic for her to get booted out of VP. Seems like she ran just to pad her resume and get a diversity checkmark on the books. That and the laughing at people being incarcerated for marijuana charges under her watch was so tone deaf

Trump wins. Drilling goes haywire in the Permian basin and my property’s value skyrockets. I sell and go back to south Texas where there are trees and water, animals besides snakes and rabbits.

They (the Fed, Biden administration, and others) expected that though. That's why we heard "transitory" for years and years until it finally proved to be anything but. Supply chain issues gradually resolved, but when you're running annual deficits in the trillions in doesn't really matter. We like to harken back to the Bush/Obama deficits, or even the Trump deficits, which were all egregious in their own way, but over the past 2-3 years (2020-2021 excluded) we've completely gone off the deep end. You can't keep buying up trillions in goods and services forever and not expect that the price for those products won't increase.

Assuming Trump doesn't get jailed beforehand but JB wins, Trump of course calls fraud but doesn't have as much pull as in 2020 so it fizzles out over a couple weeks. Might be some violent protests in certain cities but hopefully nothing like Jan 6th


Trump has already claimed that the 2024 election is fraudulent. He is getting ahead of the ball for when he loses and can say, "see! I told you!"

Otherwise, if he wins, it will be legit. No fraud.

All options are wrong

Likely trump wins, trump sworn in, no chaos
