Either way there’ll be rioting.

Rioters will be more emboldened with Biden/Harris at the helm. They will get everything they want including reparations. All of this capitulation will make Neville Chamberlain look like a hard-nose.

The Washington Compost won’t allow links so the Editorial by Georgetown professor Rosa Brooks was reframed as “Parody” by The Babylon Bee.
In the actual editorial Rosa Brooks analyzed the four “Scenarios” her “Experts” considered most likely.
A Biden popular vote and electoral landslide
A narrow Biden win
Trump loses the popular vote with a narrow electoral win
An uncertain election as in the 2000 Broward County Florida endless hanging chad recounts.
In her scenarios she had Biden calling for peaceful demonstrations (I would assume she meant the “Mostly Peaceful kind), and Trump agitating and fomenting violence and doing all kinds of nasty evil things only the author can imagine.
Her experts gave no consideration of the possibility of a “Trump Landslide”. I assume her carefully chosen “experts” would consider this outcome impossible and proof positive the Russians helped Trump cheat.
Biden would then have no choice but to call for extreme “mostly peaceful” protests.

I wonder how professors like this will react if these “peaceful protests” start targeting universities?

Peaceful protests are generally good for Democrats - but violent ones drive people toward a law and order candidate.

Omar Wasow of Princeton University wanted to measure the impact of the violent protests following King’s death on white voting patterns in the 1968 election.
He found a remarkable swing of up to 8% among white voters against Nixon’s Democratic rival, Hubert Humphrey, where there had been violence.

Will protests help Donald Trump as they did Richard Nixon in 1968?
History suggests that Republicans benefit from street violence, whereas Democrats gain from peaceful protests
