New York City is seems to think Trump is going to win (and is bracing for it)
From the NY Post:
Manhattan buildings for super rich hire armed guards for possible Election Day unrest
New York’s ultra rich are quietly preparing for civil unrest on Election Day — by hiring armed guards to stand watch over their luxury Manhattan buildings.
At the Time Warner Center on Columbus Circle, where the penthouse is going for $62.5 million, managers are deploying off duty cops with “submachine guns” to stand watch, while other wealthy city enclaves are also beefing up protection for residents.
“Everybody is worried about security,” an insider told the Post. “Every top building is adding security. It’s out of control. We hope it won’t be needed, but we will be ready.”
The building is working with the NYPD and Homeland Security, the insider said.
“There will be officers with submachine guns,” the source said. “We’ve always had immense security, but there will be more. We’ll have extra patrols. The entire building can be shut down with one button.”
The Time Warner building isn’t the only one. Buildings for the elite of the NY financial world such as 220 Central Park and South 432 Park Ave, as well as buildings full of celebrities such as Greenwich Lane have hired off-duty police and others who can legally carry guns to provide defense.
Aint that a fucking hoot. The average resident of New York City can barely get a gun legally to defend him or herself from rioters and looters but the millionaires and billionaires of the city can hire guards with actual machineguns.
This is exactly why burdensome gun laws are immoral. They lead to corruption where the riffraff cannot afford the fees, bribes, and palm-greasing to legally obtain the tools they need to defend themselves. While the rich and well connected can ensure their safety by opening their wallets to the right people.
But buildings full of cops and contractors are not the only preparations.
Businesses are boarding up their windows in preparation for mass social unrest, aka riots.

Now, why would they need to do that if Biden is going to win?
Because deep down in their hearts they suspect that he won’t and Antifa/BLM/the radical Left is going to absolutely lose their shit and riot to a degree that no American city as seen yet.
Portland, Seattle, previous riots in NYC, Chicago, and other cities have just been a dress rehearsal for the real #Resistancec if Trump wins.
People confident in Biden’s winning poll numbers wouldn’t be preparing for the city to come under siege.
The reality is that the wealthy elite and business owners are prepping like it’s the opening credits for The Purge.
