The thing about Black Swan events is that you can't predict them, but it's certainly fun to speculate. Personally I'm thinking of a civil war between the normies and the freaks, the latter of whom have managed to weasel their way into enough state power to enforce such absurdities as pregnant men and the evil miasma of Whiteness. These demand more money than there is in recompense for imagined offenses from people who are getting sick of the scam. That's the thing about scams: sooner or later the marks find out and it isn't pretty when that happens.

There is also the prospect of the Lovely Meteor Of Death and the astronomers who know about it clamming up because of professional courtesy. Watch the astronomers. If they start buying time-shares on Mars, you'll know something is up.

The water temp in the hot spring rising above 200C is our warning. Regardless of what any “experts” say we’ll be out of here.

If we’re wrong we’ll come back after a nice vacation adventure.

If we’re right then we’ll be alive. I expect a fair number of experts won’t be able to say the same.

Yellowstone eruption

I don't think the Dutton Ranch has volcanoes.

Give free phones and internet service to all Americans and keep the citizenry pacified.

The Yellowstone caldera >>> IS <<< a volcano. If it ever goes off there won’t be a Dutton Ranch...not even the fictional one.

There won’t be a civil war. Who fights who over what?

Hah! You think they’ll let ANY Republican be elected? They’ll cheat whether it’s Trump or Birdbrain, or Joe Doakes. Pray, because only God can overcome their evil.

My prediction:

The Georgia case will be dismissed, either directly or on appeal.

That's the only case in which he would not be able to pardon himself once he takes office.

Trump will win the election and between the Nov. 6th and inauguration the Deep State will take him out....either by jailing him, or.......

Personally, I think Biden et al, are trying to decide if WWIII would hurt him or help him. This foot dragging they’re doing over the three troops killed is because they can’t decide which “what ifs” would benefit them. I’m sure they’re thinking about starting a war, then trying to cancel elections, or using the old, “now, in this time of crises, is NOT the time to change leadership”.

Yup—Places like Georgia and Arizona could have Civil Wars all by themselves.

Lol.

I think you misunderstand me. Of course "they" will not let any Republican win. They no longer even need a stooge, like GW Bush.

But, whoever this "they" is does not want to face Trump (again). 2020 outright theft, and Plugs Biden is enough to beat Trump. If Trump is gone, then "they" can come out from the shadows and win with less obvious theft. Biden is probably an unreliable stooge, at best.

I believe that Trump’s departure would guarantee the replacement of Biden. Trump is the only candidate requiring the cheat to overcome. If Trump can be forced out, then a more “normal” election is possible and whoever is hiding behind the figurehead of Biden no longer needs him.

I disagree the dimmies have discovered how easy it is to cheat and they love power, more than anything except money. The republicans don't have the stones to cry foul.
