Those of our American friends, such as Louis Schmier, who are
already congratulating themselves at having avoided tanks and
blood in the streets over the election results may be a bit
premature in their assessment.

I understand that an American President still governs, and will
continue to for a number of weeks to come. Moreover, the two
Presidential candidates and their supporters have reason to hope
that when the dust settles, their candidate will prevail.

What happens when time runs out and the matter is still not
resolved?

I fear an attack on democracy will follow, not by tanks, but by
lawyers.
