This is from a report put out by the Transitional Integrity Project, a "bipartisan group of over 100 current and former senior government and campaign leaders, academics, journalists, polling experts and former federal and state government."

In actuality, the project is all Democrats or "Never Trump" Republicans, including:

  • John Podesta, former White House Chief of Staff
  • Donna Brazile, former Democratic National Committee Acting Chair
  • Michael Steele, former chair of the Republican National Committee
  • Max Boot, journalist
  • David Frum, journalist

This is not a joke. Liberal media has been covering this story and linking to this article [1] [2] [3] But they only mention the parts about Trump refusing to concede.

Right-wing media is talking about this angle, where Biden refuses to concede. Workers must have a full understanding of what is going on, so we can prepare & respond to the coming months.

I know some people here will be like, "oh that can't be right, aren't Democratic and Republicans on the same team." No, they are not. They both want to crush any working class power, but there are serious contradictions within the bourgeois class.

One faction of the bourgeoisie wanted to slowly contain China & Russia through building exclusionary trade agreements (TPP) and maintaining relationships with Europe. This would build towards world war at a slower pace. They see war with China & Russia right now as suicide for their class.

Another faction want to crush China & Russia immediately because they recognize the rate at which these two nations are building their productive base. They see a war later down the line as harder to win.

As the contradiction of capitalism heightens, and the American Empire fumbles under Trump, the former faction is under more and more pressure to act. Their "Russian collusion" plan and impeachment failed tremendously.

Now we are in a position where neither faction will recognize the election results, which will likely be the end of "liberal democracy" in the US.

    how do they escalate to succession immediately?

    What do you mean escalate?

    1. We're entering the fifth month of sustained street fights in major cities.
    2. The Democratic Party has impeached the president and accused him of being a Russian kompromat.
    3. The main political consciousness in the Republican Party is QAnon.
    4. The FBI just exposed a plot to overthrow the Michigan government after the president called on his supports to "liberate" the state.

    I think you have just normalized the very clear descent we're seeing in the US.

    is anyone actually willing to die for the democratic party?

    Right now, no. Once enough people get murdered, which will happen in response to the election, yeah. That's generally how these things progress.
