Here’s What Happens If Hillary Wins…

[Peter Lemkin]

Dark times ahead whichever way you look at it. Truly a tragic moment for humanity.

I'll second that notion. The most powerful [and aggressive] nation will soon be led by someone dangerous and only interested in power for themselves and/or those who helped them get above the 'fray' of the lumpen proletariat. While I believe the course things would take will be very different [in most ways, not all] between one or the other 'major party candidate', either one will lead to very many bad things. One has to hope we can somehow avoid disaster in four years and get rid of them. It is my belief that if Trump looses, he won't concede and will contest for a long while - some of his gun toting faithful might make things very frightening indeed. If he looses, I also see the Republican Party slitting into two parties - a good thing. I wish the Democratic Party would do the same thing. More and smaller parties - and eventually getting rid of the Electoral College and having some kind of proportional representation is the only way to save the US in something like its current form...but I don't think that kind of change is really possible. So, the collapse will go on - as will more wars externally and more repression on and spying upon the citizenry. I know I won't be cheering no matter what happens tonight. The only thing that could life my spirits would be a high vote for Jill Stein and some of the state ballot initiatives for sane improvements. Neither winner will have it easy from the men behind the curtains, as they both have enemies and supporters there - so that internecine war, along with a dysfunctional Congress will lead to very bad things out of their control. The raping of the citizenry of their money, jobs, homes, civil liberties, health, freedoms and lives will continue apace under either neocon. The Empire in its dying days [years or a few decades, in fact] will seek to extend itself further until it implodes - but I don't think the endgame will be a pretty one internally nor externally. Averting a total Global environmental and nuclear disaster will not be easy. Yes, we are exceptional......
