FortuneCookie 01/17/21 10:36:38 PM #8:	That's crazy. In two week's time, we'll be back to business as usual. There won't be a Civil War. There won't be an insurrection. There won't be a coup. If Trump says he's not leaving the White House, we'll drag him out of it or Biden can run the country from another location. Even if it turns out that his "military escort" is actually his personal army, Trump's not going to maintain power. There are no paths, realistically, that will lead to the downfall of this nation as a whole. <cite>FortuneCookie posted [p:949625325] in 79% of Ame... [t:79245269]...</cite> <quote>That's crazy.

I don't live in the US, but my brother told me some family members are literally impossible to talk to now.

He said he had to tell some of them they aren't allowed to visit because they refused to wear masks and believed all kinds of conspiracy bullshit about the coronavirus.
