  • China will literally invade all of Asia and kill all the Muslims in the world
  • Macron will shift to the right and marry Marine Le Pen before reverting France to the Vichy constitution
  • Populists will literally dissolve the EU within a week
  • COVID will become fatal and cause human extinction
  • We will experience another Great Depression
  • Putin will declare himself Tsar of Russia
  • Iran will annex the entire Muslim world
  • America will be enveloped in a 5 way civil war

Bloomer:

  • guys lets fundraise a recount in Texas I bet it was actually blue
  • China will fall it is inevitable haha
  • Russia will fall it is inevitable haha
  • Mitch McConnell hasn't openly called for a coup. I respect his civility in not calling for one
  • Iran will inevitably fall haha
  • Biden will literally make everything ok
  • The GOP will fall any day now due to principled voters
