You’ve basically hit the nail on the head. Furthermore I’d like to add to this we’ve already seen a Trump admin try to handle massive domestic unrest and it didn’t work in 2020, it just made people even more pissed off. Now that anger did get channeled back into electoral liberalism and then diffused because that’s something America does, but without that, and assuming the premise that 2026 riots would be more severe and involve actual starvation or something, I just can’t see it.
This admin barely has its shit together right now when there’s not a domestic insurrection. They’re slowly losing international support for the Zionist project and they keep trying and failing to invade Venezuela. I can’t really predict how Americans would respond to extraordinary amounts of state enforced violence (to the point it disrupts everyday commerce) because I can’t think of any precedent really. But I also can’t imagine this current admin would suddenly become competent enough to suppress extreme discontent. I can only imagine something like 1970s Ireland transplanted into now.
