The US elections are going to be an absolute shit show. The fact is that regardless of who wins, things will only get worse in the US.

I think any sort of attack or 'terrorist' action in the US will help Trump because he's very, very good at preying on fear. In fact, that's his only game. Usually, such events favor the incumbent, but there is none now, and many will feel (whether they like him or not), having been president before, that Trump seems more presidential.

If Harris picks Mark Kelly as her VP, it will help her in this regard. He's more centrist, astronaut, and would lend a tough guy element to the ticket. In fact, he's a real tough guy in the general sense, unlike Trump who is a wannabe tough guy in a dictator, mob boss sense, which is why like he likes Xi and Putin so much, but he's really just a spoiled daddy's boy.

So it's a lose-lose situation. Both parties are bought and paid for by the corporatocracy, so aside from personalities of those on the tickets, we're screwed.
