    I predict more violence and lots more fake news, and a very high turnout of exceptionally polarized voters.

    Said nothing about a revolution, what I said was people take matters in their own hands, this happens before any revolution.

    I have been to enough countries to understand what a revolution is and all the wars I have studied prior to any action civilians started moving, thinking, planning.

    A preemptive determination, taking sides, ignoring laws.

    It's rather silly to claim that any given political movement will end up in the trash bin of history. Certain events can slightly change one's political leanings, and certain candidates can gander widespread popularity, but ultimately people rarely drastically change their political leanings after 25.

    Certain issues may indeed become more or less important, and messaging may change, but that's it.

    Russian efforts will focus very much on "anti-leftist" propaganda going into this election. It is going to look very much like 2016, but focusing more on "leftists" than on a particular candidate (Clinton). The agitprop is bound to be very similar, because it works so well on stupid conservatives.

    Odds are democrats will take the House, and republicans will keep the senate... just given that races that are happening. Even at an advantage there just aren't many seats available for democrats to pick up in the senate and they have many to defend. Of course things could change if either side gets complacent. If the economy gets significantly worse before election day, republicans may lose the senate. I think it's very likely republicans will lose the house.

    They have a chance to win the House. I think they will come up 3 short. Repubs to gain 2 or 3 in the Senate. Still not enough for a Supermajority.

    The Economy is still improving going into the Mid Term that's not good for them. Of course running on we will raise your taxes and impeach Trump isn't much of a platform.

    Could P. M. Justin Trudeau manage to destroy the USA Democratic Party for 2018?

    The Republicans may feel compelled to stop rubber-stamping Trump's whims and wishes at this piont.

    Doesn't look like it. McConnell just got 2 more of his DC Judges confirmed.
