25. Not sure I've seen much here about people foreseeing the mob

storming the Capitol. I've rather seen many speculations that the Congress somehow won't count the electoral votes for Biden and needless questions about what will happen if case x happens. The Repub's attempts to stop the inevitable clearly failed and never had any chance of success given the numbers in Congress.

That the Repubs would try every bs to play to their base was pretty much expected though.
