I think we all agree on this list that the defeat of Trump was a source for rejoicing. However I am being driven mad on twitter by those people who think that Biden will do something for the Irish and others that he will help the English because Johnson was close to Trump. 

It reminds me of people who see the face of Jesus in tea cups or in lichen or in clouds.

Not happening.

But the real purpose of this post is to contribute to the discussion - what will Trump do now?  I have already commented elsewhere on the psycho babble that his niece is putting out about how Trump will bring us all down with him. That is self-serving rubbish.

The real question is whether Trump will call for an armed mobilization of his followers. The English media personality and former Leftist @paulmasonnews has asked this very question.

I think myself that there is no way that Trump will try a Beer Hall type putsch or a Mussolini style march on Washington. Hitler's 1923 putsch failed because he had not secured the support of capital. He got that in 1932. Mussolini  had the support of the monarchy, the military and big business. There is no evidence that Trump can marshal any support of that kind.

So he has a handful of militias and I think in military terms they are worthless. They can commit murder and do dastardly deeds but they cannot seize state power IMO. As well I think there would be an oppositional surge from the youth that would smash any fascist putsch.

But we will see
