Are we going to see an ugly break-up tomorrow?

If the Republicans lose those two Senate seats in GA, and thus, lose majority control of the Senate, they are going to blame Trump and his band of Trumpteers. You're going to be seeing Republican Senators watching a surreal event unfolding in D.C., with MAGAs outside angrily protesting to pressure Pence to hand the election to Trump, at the same time that they see their majority control slip through their fingers.

Don't you suppose that this will be just too much for some of the more intelligent among them?

About some of the more religiously insane YouTube channels I've been watching where everyone is convinced that God is on their side, and that Trump will prevail. It's hard to get through that mindset as there's always an out for the religious shysters - God is testing us. God's ways our not ours. Not, "I'm a scam artist who pretends that God talks to him."

It's going to be interesting.
