While we don’t know precisely what a second Trump term will look like, it’ll surely be chaotic and bleak, and could mark the end of something we certainly don’t want to lose: democracy as we know it.
That last paragraph isn't new ground. It isn't a new sermon. It has been repeated ad nauseum by the media, and Kamala Harris is getting shriller repeating it. Do people like Jong-Fast really believe their nonsense? Some do, but I think the majority of talking heads are simply in the final stages of losing their bet. They put all their money on a losing horse, and they are getting very shrill about losing. Simply, they don’t want to lose with the shame of picking the wrong horse. That their predictions of doom will never come true is what bothers them the most. In four years, they fear being collectively reminded of their "Heaven’s Gate” prediction - and that it didn’t come to pass. They also know that if Trump isn't elected, they can avoid the mockery of "I told you so". //
Media and nutty influencers are scared of one thing, and it's not a Trump presidency. Sure, they don't want to see a "President Trump", but they are mostly terrified of being wrong. Deep down, media types know that Trump isn’t going to round them up. //
Mocked relentlessly for being massively wrong is their fear. They're terrified of preaching a false religion.
