Where are the riots and civil disorder?

That scared the hell out of me. But nothing yet. Are they waiting for the networks to call the election?

I thought there might be isolated pockets of mayhem (as there have been for much of the Trump admin) but talk of widespread riots always seemed rather unlikely.

I have heard this from several places, and on a call-in show. It make sense, Trump said "I won" so the cult believes it.

The Trump tantrums will happen. Be prepared.

When it becomes obvious that he isn't, and Biden is declared winner I think we're going to start seeing some trouble. Especially if Donnie won't concede and keeps stirring up the animals.
