I don’t believe that will happen. Americans have become almost totally passive. They will only awake to vote for Trump. And if it is a stolen election or goes to Clinton because of this new ex-pat voter registration, they will shrug their shoulders and do nothing till the next failed election. Very few people questioned when Romney lost all the swing states about the same time election night by about the same amount and our Republican legislators and even conservative pundits told people to stop talking about “conspiracy theories” or they just said nothing.

We’re in this mess precisely because of passivity.

This past primary season has revealed that even ‘activists’ on FR haven’t taken a regular part in party politics for years and had no idea how candidates are selected. They regard themselves as heroes for spending a few minutes in voting booths a few times a decade, and can’t understand why their will is not obeyed.

In fact, anyone with a history of participating in party politics is denounced as a political hack.
