I have been thinking about this myself, but didn't dare bring it up. What if something crazy happens, like Trump wins the popular vote, and Hillary wins the EC?

I get creepy chills thinking about it, because for so long, the Right has been ridiculed, mocked, demeaned, and marginalized by the Left, the MSM. Trump has become their voice. Thats what this is about, its not about idiology, its about a last ditch effort to preserve at least SOME of what they hold dear.

I am a calm, non-violent, and skeptical conservative. I roll my eyes at conspiracy theories, and cringe at some of what the Right says about things, especially cultural issues. That said, even _I_ totally understand the rage that has built up over the last 20 years or so. I get so pissed off at the Media culture, I have to Zen myself not to scream. I can imagine, that if _I_, former liberal and pacifist type, can feel this way, there surely are some that are positively SEETHING with resentment... and I bet most of those people are well armed.

All it takes is a couple of whackjobs to start something, then the Left over-react like they usually do with force... I can see something like the Bundy ranch situation starting, but there would be 1000x the support from defeated Conservatives. I can see so many scenarios where this could get ugly..
