(Non-Sports) Denninger made his predictions. Here are mine.

This is in the same vein as the previous post, an enemy of mine's predictions on the year 2022.

This will be the non-sports version of that, and it's going to start with the same list, going down, of his -- removing more than a few of the technical points.

• Inflation?  If it's only simply that!  We are headed, I fear, for it spiraling out of control and the concept of the top of the power in this country basically in position to even want to stop it:  On one side, because they will lose power permanently and want to leave what is left as a smoldering crater.  On the other, as a mechanism to kill off the more liberal side.
• Midterms:  55-45 R in the Senate, 250-180 or so in the House.  If Biden is still President by this point, this will probably end it full-stop.  I think that, at some point in 2022...
• The Republicans will get the Congress anyway -- BEFORE the midterms.  Look, I get that Joe Manchin has a lot of power now, and he probably likes it.  The fact is, he's losing that power in a year, and, between the "unspeakable things" he claimed Biden said and the open-faced desire to be in with the "correct side" of the power flip, the fact is Manchin should flip the Senate at first opportunity in 2022.  The House is a bit trickier -- they need five votes as things currently stand.  There has been a long-standing belief among the CPAC types that the Congressional Black Caucus would flip, given the chance.  If Biden continues to deteriorate much further, I can't see how some of these people wait any longer.  More on him in a bit.
• Roe's gone, and so is much of the 14th Amendment with it.  For 50 years, the Republican party and it's evangelical wing have wanted to outlaw abortion.  They now have mechanism to do it.  And especially after the Texas law stood, it's clear that part of it is done, in all 50 states.  However, I believe the Court has much more work to do -- the complete elimination of most rights for some people and the complete elimination of them for others.  That's why I openly see a 5-3 decision (Roberts will concur in part and dissent in part, largely akin to Denninger's prediction that this will get a "split the baby" decision no one will like) which will state that a woman's legitimate purpose is to be barefoot and pregnant AND that any acting outside their legitimate purpose or have those who have none at all have no rights either.
• The supply chain is gone...  By design, I believe certain parties have decided to blow the entire supply chain to shreds.
• ... and we go All-Stop Condition on at least one city or area at some point after the scheduled date of the Super Bowl.  OK, maybe a small dabble into sports because of the societal nature of Super Bowl Sunday, but I would have to think we are now at the point where we get that All-Stop that I believe a lot of people on both sides have been begging for.
• In the vein of the "blue hives" being in particular trouble:  I will predict there will finally be a successful White Right move to seize the government violently, at minimum in at least one understood-liberal city or state.  "City" candidates probably are anything from the usual West Coast suspects to Chicago, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York.  I think the two main "State" candidates are California and Michigan.  Much of the fact that things are as they are is, at least partially, due to the White Right's cowardice.  A lot of them do not see us getting to 2024 -- and more than a few do not see us getting to the midterms.  At some point, someone is either going to have to move or the hope is everything collapses -- but of what value is it to claim Planet X in the name of the Earth if Planet X is now a small hunk of matter because the rest got blown to smithereens?
• The only question about Biden is what finally forces him out.  There is ZERO CHANCE he sees the end of 2022, and probably very little chance he sees the end of the year alive.  In fact...
• I will predict there will be at least three Presidents in 2022.  Harris is so unpopular, I cannot see her lasting more than a few days at best.  Pelosi isn't much better in that regard -- and, with Pat Leahy retiring from the Senate at the end of the term, does he have ANY desire to succeed to the Presidency for what would be two-plus years?  Antony Blinken is a non-zero chance.  Donald Trump is a much larger one.
• The entire education system is on abjectly thin ice, and will collapse -- doing so in 2022 is a question.  Part of it is, especially given where we are probably headed as a country, we are mis-educating our children, and being very disingenuous on top of it.  Then you add COVID considerations, then you add the ridiculous cost of college, then you add the very concept that the social structure of schools is inherently violent (esp. sexual against women)...
• Donald Trump is not finished.  Not by a long shot!  The only problem Donald Trump has right now is the concept of the 30% which consist his base demanding the kill-off starts.  If Trump won't do it, he'll go with 'em when it does.  As I said in the other post, Trump's viability is going to come down to the concept of whether he actually is willing to turn this country into a national reality show (on a quite literal, not just figurative, basis) or not.  If he decides to basically talk a big game and do nothing, he'll be offed.  Hell, I could see it done by his son, after some of what was said at a recent Conservative conference about what Don Jr. believes about the teachings of God.

Now, I'm going to add a few more that either aren't on this list or tangentially are:

• We will have a major grid-down -- and the associated "chimp-out" -- somewhere on some level.
• The White Right Revenge Purge will begin in 2022, even if on an isolated local level.
• Certain parties, even on the Conservative side, can start counting their life expectancies in a matter of months or weeks.
• The next long-term President of the United States is either going to Don, Don Jr. or someone akin to President Bracken in The Purge series.  In short, Conservative America wants this country to run red, and elected Trump to do it. I'm not sure DeSantis, even in his freedom kick to let COVID run wild, is actually willing to let all that go down.
• And, lastly, conditional on the concept that my message and belief system actually get across to Conservatives, you won't see me doing this again in one year's time.
