That deterrent is a big part if why I think not so many will turn out for the next phase of the rebellion. But in the somewhat longer view, I'm not relaxed at all. The country is fractured, without a unifying vision. This will lead to further trouble I fear.

So do your friends and family see Trump as an aberration and not representative of rational Americans?

Of course we know that he is not representative. But by far most of us do not understand why this perverted person got, all in all (2016/2020) - around 150000000 votes. Maybe I have some idea about this phenomenon. It has much to do with the history of the United States, with the two party system, with the existence of the so called "Bible Belt" and the so called "Rust Belt" and so on and on. Many things together, including the Social Media, made this mad monster possible.
I wish the inauguration was already over.

The blue wall of authoritarian entitlement has been known to flare in Atlanta, but I expect them to do their duty without the cover of sympathetic weak oversight of the usual suspects.

This person got that many votes because a significant section of the population's concerns re globalization and immigration were dismissed/ignored by important Elders of both parties.
Of course, a subset of such a section is racist.

Our four-year-long national nightmare will be over in less than 24 hours.
