the best thing that could happen for the country and all people living in it
would be if DJT had a massive stroke or heart attack before election day.

He is not going to act appropriately or even marginally sane because he is
incapable, and he has no desire to be.

People are going to get hurt, some may get killed, because of his sociopathic
disregard for other human beings, the law, rules, decency, civility, public safety,
etc. etc. You are right: His behavior during this "lame-duck fuck-you farewell
pity party" is going to be so horrifying that it would make Caligula blush.

He is completely unstable. . . and sincerely dangerous -- whether by the spreading
of COVID directly or by misinformation, by withholding relief for the economic
fallout of COVID, or by the bullets fired from the weapons of his "supporters".
