How about this law. If the president elect and his VP are assassinated before they have a chance to convene a cabinet the state governors from their party will meet to designate a replacement?

OK, write Cruz he is your senator and he's fired up about fixing the system. Obviously you don't trust that the lawfully elected person will become president. Let's make certain that scenario is covered.

I do not believe we are immune to it. I just believe we will survive this and the next four years will be better. I believe we will have investigations and people will be sent to prison. I believe that because the Dem has control for the next two years. You don't.

Not all their constituents. That's like saying America agreed with Trump because he was elected. Cruz was on the ropes against Beto two years ago. There was a lot of ground support and I believe we can defeat him in two years. I'll be back on the phones and working hard to make that happen.

I agree, but I don't see it happening. Hopefully the voters in their states respond when they run. Cruz was on the ropes two years ago. This isn't helping him with the more moderate areas of the state.

So you believe that the person elected could have the election taken from him in this manner? So you don't have trust in our system. I do. So you might want to write Cruz and let him know you agree that Americans don't trust our system.

Again. I believe we will survive this. Folks will be in jail who participated. An impeachment will begin, and possibly finish, and hopefully Cruz and company will be censored.

And I do not believe our military or the American people are fragile unlike people here who believe we're close to failure.

I agree 100%. I wasn't vague. I believe anyone who entered the capital should receive long jail sentences. That Trump should be impeached and that Cruz and company should be censored at the minimum.

And Trump lost every court case he filed. Do you really believe if those papers were destroyed we wouldn't look back to each state and their records to decide? Do you really see the courts saying, well I guess Trump is president for life? Our government isn't that fragile. If that could happen you must then agree with Cruz that we need a full investigation of our election systems to restore faith in our process.

Where have you seen anyone defend him that wasn't far right? I live in the state that inflicted Ted Cruz on the country and folks here are saying good riddance to Trump.

He was also in fear of the right. He is basically in fear of both extremes. Which honestly I believe there are reasons to fear extremists no matter what their views.

I agree. But it seems most people here don't believe there will be anyone jailed or any investigations. That would lead to us surviving this which apparently isn't going to happen.

No it won't it won't disappear. Not in a hundred years or a thousand years. It also didn't start four years ago. It's been around forever. It was a problem when those same kind of folks were lynching people of color it's a CRISIS and could DESTROY our country when they attack the congress and senators. I believe there will be action which is part of surviving this. Some folks here see Trump and Cruz leading the Bugaboo Boys followed by the military down Pennsylvania Avenue to retake the White House in a couple months. I don't see it happening. Biden, our oldest elected President, health permitting, will be president for four years and, if all indicators are accurate, will not run for reelection. There will be a peaceful transfer of power and life will go on with all those same threats in place plus some new ones. Cruz will likely run for President with the promise to make America Great Again. He'll be fighting with the idiot from Missouri to split the hate vote but this time hate won't get out of the primary. We saw the enemy and it was us. We'll learn from this. I have faith in my fellow Americans. I believe I have history on my side. We have weathered every threat for over 200 years. We'll weather it not by ignoring it, that's a stupid path, but by dealing with it head on. When something as horrific as what happened in our nation's capital occurs we don't cower in fear and run, we stand and fight. We're Americans. During the next decade maybe some current threats won't be as bad, some may get worse. Although I can't see the Alt Right getting much worse without their cult leader in office, but perhaps. We'll deal with that threat as well. I trust our FBI to handle it just fine. I trust our military leaders to protect us from all threats, foreign and domestic. America will get better. But, if you really think we're doomed, I'd suggest getting out now or at least moving to an area where you can buy yourself some protection if you believe the military will be on the side of fascists and wanna be dictators. Greg has been predicting this for months, it's too bad he hasn't been around to see how many people who called him crazy then are now agreeing with him.

I believe this is one of the worst threats to our democracy since the Civil War. But I am confident we will survive this. I don't see our military and 328,000,000 Americans going along with a violent over throw of our government to keep seated an unpopular President. We're stronger than that. With that, you all can argue why we won't and how close Trump is to a violent take over of the country.

So what are you doing?

Do I believe our military will participate in over throwing our government? No I do not. Were they on Obama's side? No., Did they overthrow him? No. Were they on Clinton's side? No. Did they over throw him? No. Are they on Biden's side? No. Will they over throw him? No.

I believe America will be better off in two years under a Biden administration. Do you?

I believe we will survive this. Do you?

I believe we will survive this. Do you?

I do not believe the military will stand by or support it. If you believe they would they could do it any time they want. They could just install a general directly. Y'all think we're close to a revolution, I think we're close to a Biden revival. Mainstream folks se what happens and do not want that.

I think the military moves in, arrests Trump, and crushes the uprising. Are you suggesting that any president who wants could take over the government?

OK, Trump was thisclose to being president for life. We're doomed. Fascists are taking over America. Biden will have a horrible presidency. Now, what chance do we have from heavily armed terrorists lynching and installing their government?

I do not believe a few thousand people can over throw our government. You apparently do. I am confident that we will survive this. I am confident that Biden will return America to where we were and improve upon it.

OK, I'll bite. We're on the brink of disaster. Whose fearing Trump and Cruz recruiting an Army and over throwing the government? In two years how do they over throw our government? How are the right wing fascists taking over? How many Americans will be behind them in their revolution? And for the record, at the minimum long federal prison sentences for anyone who entered the Capital. Impeachment for Trump. Censure for Cruz and Hawley. Any fundraising they did while this was happening gets turned over to the families of the police members that were killed or injured.
