*"Besides," said Tasbrough, "this chewing the rag is all nonsense, anyway. As Crowley says, might be a good thing to have a strong man in the saddle, but—it just can't happen here in America."

Confidence is high that it will remain fictional. I think Kamala will win in a landslide. A version of this was first written during the first Biden campaign. It was updated for Biden campaign 2.0, and now, I truly believe it has lost relevance — IF people vote.
It looks like, so far, they are. In particular, it looks like women are voting in historic and unprecedented numbers. Thanks for the read and comment!

Tomorrow tells the tale. Are we facing a date which will live in infamy? Good writing, Charles. Terrible thoughts.
