A couple of concerning points to note. People don't generally have specific targets to fight against when democracy breaks down, so taking to the streets is the means of showing discontent. Trump may not have military support, but he has a lot of support from police across the country and has already been doing the groundwork to label protesters as anarchists and justify violent police crackdowns.
Do people who support Biden end up at war with the police in their cities? What about the national guard and DHS?
What do local government administrators end up in this? Which pressures are they most influenced by?
