In the U.S., there is active discussion about the possibility of new mass protests or even attempts at revolutionary unrest should the Republicans lose control of the House of Representatives and the Senate. People there realize that Trump may not accept defeat in the election.

This was discussed on Channel 24 with Andriy Gorodnytskyi, a Ph.D. and political expert. Back in early 2021, Trump supporters had already stormed the Capitol following his defeat in the U.S. presidential election.

Could such a scenario happen again?

According to Gorodnytskyi, U.S. law enforcement agencies are aware that such a risk exists. They are preparing for various scenarios. And the response will clearly be better than it was during the events of 2021.

During Trump’s inauguration, law enforcement cordoned off vast neighborhoods. It seemed as though there were literally tens of thousands of police officers on the streets.

Hypothetically, Trump could call on his radical supporters to take action, suggesting a storming of the White House. This is entirely possible, but the odds aren’t very high. It would be very difficult to pull this off a second time,
– noted Gorodnytskyi.

We should add that political analyst Oleksandr Leonov emphasized that Trump’s policies are effectively leading the Republicans to disaster. Currently, according to forecasts, the Democrats could win a majority in both houses of Congress. Even in the traditionally Republican state of Texas, polls show the Democratic candidate in the lead.
