Trump's going to win and is going to try to do a lot of scary shit but this is a country that couldn't mail out paper masks in a pandemic. He'll manage to kill some people via spectacular violence and institute a geographically patchy reign of terror but he will neither produce a broad effective program nor will he have institutions capable of executing it
The country will of course be further destabilized (and who knows what that'll entail) but perhaps more importantly what Trump will do is grind the United States of America's inner workings to a halt and, God willing, asphyxiate it like an immobilized shark
