Is the scorched GOP Office just the beginning?

Trump foreshadowed this theme in early August. Mentioned that if he lost, we could all be certain the election had been rigged.

"And I'm telling you, November 8, we'd better be careful, because that election is going to be rigged," the New York billionaire told Fox News host Sean Hannity. "And I hope the Republicans are watching closely or it's going to be taken away from us."

Rather an odd foresight at the time, particularly for a man who believed the attendees of his rallies were so plentiful that he could never lose the race.

But here we are. Trump is trailing significantly and knows he's toast.

And suddenly, there is a crescendo of Trump sycophants echoing their compromised leader's dubious words.

And a firebombing in North Carolina.

Is this how they intend to wreck the election, like the GOP tried to shut down the government, like Republicans always do when the will of the people transgresses their infantile "principles"?

Do they consider anarchy a viable counterpoint to the progressive movement?

If that's all they've got....not only are they sick....they're traitors to America and all the Founding Fathers ever stood for.

"Death to Capitalism" was painted on a building in the same night as the attack.
