Absolutely hilarious if the difference were crazed Trumpists boycotting to punish the Republicans for insufficient fealty. Everyone in the party knew Trump would knife them sooner or later, yet they lacked the spine or principle to oppose him. And this is what happens.
If the US has a Dem controlled Senate, then I'm genuinely, I promise you, sincerely delighted at this horrible result. I am so happy at the rate of decline being very slightly slowed. It's the best possible news for my American friends and the world.
Better yet if the Republican Party does experience a genuine schism that has them more focused on attacking each other. Let them eat each other alive.
Ah, you mean the Democrat Method.
Yes, except I want a second right-wing party to emerge, similar to what happened in Canada in the 90s.

I was more referencing how democrats hate leftists more than republicans, but I agree it would be great to have them disunited.

Wait, that makes no sense. My understanding is that socialists control the Democratic Party and that Joe Biden is the most left-wing candidate ever.

"The European Union calls on the American authorities and leaders to prioritise the interests of the American people and to urgently come together to start a American-led transition process, in order to find a peaceful, inclusive and sustainable solution to the political crisis, through credible, inclusive and transparent presidential and legislative elections. The EU stands ready to support such a process and will continue to work with all relevant actors."

It would be a blood bath.

Also I have cnn on in the other room. One of the commentators just called the Trumpies "anarchists".

They should have shot dozens of them by now. This is why I have no trust in cops.

Looking at how these people are dressed and acting, it seems like a replay of the Days of Rage in '69.

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
