There was the plot to kidnap the governor, and the head of elections there had armed “protestors” show up at night, outside her house, yelling obscenities at her in front of her 4-year-old. > > “This business will get out of control.

Asking this again here since it got no response in the other thread: > [@Election Day \[Week\]\[Month\[s\]\] \[Year\] 2020 follow-along thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/election-day-week-month-s-year-2020-follow-along-thread/924618/7660): > > - What do you all make of Trump’s apparent signal to retreat to Mar-a-lago to never ever return to the WH?

I think it’s notable that the brunt of death threats are being made by republican constituents to REPUBLICAN OFFICIALS. I think the fact no one has fired a shot/died so far bodes well…their outrage seems to continue to fizzle, and as noted upthread, the “Kraken” et al will continuously re-file and kick the “but Trump shoulda won” can down the road so far that people will eventually lose interest.
