We're in a civil war. There's been leftist violence all summer. When the right fights back, remember who started it. The left.It's over. Trump is done. Can he lose gracefully?
Does he have it in him?
Or is he going to try to take the country down with him...
It's still too early to concede. However, Trump has no qualms about taking the country down with him. That's something that even the corrupt Nixon would never have down.
And why would Trump take the country down with him like an irrational man who's willing to burn down his own very valuable house in order to deal with a perceived problem with what is, in essence, a relatively minor problem with mice? The obvious answer is that Trump has embraced conflict and division since long before he took office. What greater conflict could there be than civil discord even to the extent of violence in the street (and even civil war)?
The more simple explanation is that Trump is irrational even to the point of insanity. I say that because no sane leader in a Western Democracy would intentionally lead his or her country to the brink of armed conflict only because he or she is interested in holding on to power against the will of the country's citizens.
