at the risk of spoiling the surprise, so what will this year's pre-election shock be?
assuming the geriatric candidates survive that long

According to the ft
the plan is to fix the Super Bowl for Travis’s team so that, in the moment of victory, the pair can embrace Joe Biden, immediately changing the minds of millions of MAGA voters who like Trump but are even more devoted to Midnights. (In the UK, the liberal elite Blob is planning something similar at the Euros, where Gareth Southgate and Dua Lipa are expected to reveal their secret romance as a prelude to endorsing Keir Starmer.)

a European coalition built on further funding Ukrainian military capabilities to be given an umbrella tag when Trump finally returns, eg European Defence Initiative, or giving out berets and berettas at supermarkets as every male becomes a *reservist

*smokers welcome!

US? No idea. Fringe movement of survivalists, preppers, militias, Christian nationalists and MAGA/Qanon merging more fully into an actual insurgency if Trump loses but Trump won’t lose so add these to red states at more extreme policy level - Christian citadel cities as cited by Andrew Torba becoming normalised in said states, abortion, trans exclusion, anti gay propaganda and baiting Pride events wherever possible

In the culture wars policy has almost been forgotten. We’ve lost the notion of being proactive - nearly everything is a reactive measure to ignorance instead of forward thinking any structuring of policy around actual societal requirements/needs
