Scorched Earth policy?
Who thinks trump is going to go on a full-out Scorched Earth policy in the next few months?
He's been steadily destroying this country over 4 years. Now, with the threat of Federal and State prison, plus the calling in of hundreds of millions of dollars in debt, and the simple fact that he lost, who thinks he'll just start going on an Executive Order rampage, trying to create as much chaos as possible.
I think his "plan" will be to cause so much damage that Biden will have no way of cleaning up even half of it. Then, trump can tweet from his potty and say how terrible Biden is.
He's already done that with his current "tax plan". Yes, a bunch of people got some money back from his tax rebate, but if people actually read the entire thing, they would see that it's built into the plan that taxes go up significantly every year... at least for middle and lower class people. He tried to buy everyone's votes on the Country credit card, and now we have to all pay for it with huge interest. And the GOP will blame Biden for the increase, even though he won't have any control over it in 2021.

Scorched Earth policy?
I think Trump is going to try to go on an executive order rampage but it won't succeed. He will be stopped. I also believe he will not stay until January and will step down. This election was not republican against democrat, it was trump against democrat. The republicans actually did really well this election and it is time to distancing ourselves from the crazy.

Republicans did better than I expected, but with just a few exceptions it's mostly 2018 flips that flipped back.
This is just anecdotal at the moment, but I wonder and hope that decent people who consider themselves Republicans voted for Biden for obvious reason but switched down ballot.

For decades my town was Republican only. Until 2016 there was no Democratic Party here. Republicans ran unopposed. Until Hillary every national election was for a Republican. While the 8000 registered republicans voted local down ballot only 4000 of them voted for Trump. 2800 voted for Biden and the rest only voted down ballot and no one for President. Biden received nearly 7000 votes in my town. That is an enormous victory and says yes, some decent Republicans realized what was going on was terrible.

4000 for Trump
2800 for Biden
1200 none for either

Thank you. Confusing post but I can see that she didn’t add that in.
