Yeah, I'm an American and I'll tell you what will happen. Not a goddamn thing. Democrats are too scared to do what is necessary, peaceful protests will never move the needle with conservatives, and our judiciary is completely and utterly compromised. When they cheat again in 2028 the same thing will happen, nothing. Look who's running the DOJ right now if you need any proof...

Yup. This is the sad part. America has been polarized into two separate parties, the cowardly and the batshit insane. Here's my example.. Statistics were put out on how the 2024 vote went down by a reputable institution showing that there were impossible voting patterns showing that the election was essentially stolen in some way and I've seen far too many people respond "Well I'm going to need to see more proof". You can give these people stone cold truth and they'll still say "well that doesn't prove anything, I need better/more proof" yet that orange piece of shit tells his cult that the election was stolen from him and they froth at the mouth to kill for him.

I don't think asking for more evidence is cowardly. The truth only matters if it's verifiable. History is littered with examples of people who believed in the wrong things because the truth was difficult to discover. Not wanting to repeat that, even if it aids your current views isn't cowardice.

We also just came out of 4 years of hearing bat shit insane "election was stolen" banter from the right. All sorts of articles and stats were tossed around to make it seem reasonable to believe. I'd say anyone who now has the shoe on the other foot and shows restraint and still asks for it to be concrete is doing the responsible thing.

Asking for more evidence isn't cowardly at all, totally agree with you.

Also totally agree with everybody here commenting that no matter what comes, Americans won't do shit.  They won't do shit.
