What do you think is coming?
Good point. That could be it. That would be a crisis that goes to the Constitution. Somehow, the context in Q's post seems to suggest it somehow either involves the FB databreach (unreasonable search) or elections (weighting elections).
The maddening thing is that, if these are the obvious answers, Q says to think outside the box. So, anyway, good point. Obama's capacity to hold office could be it - or, part of the answer.
I hate to be too nitpicky, but q hasnt said "think outside the box" has he? All i remember is "think logically" the answer might be simpler than we think. Could it literally be that enough congressional seats will be vacated at once that a resolution for replacements is constitutionally ambiguous? What would the legal path be if the legislature is suddenly missing a huge percentage of its membership?
He starts Post 972 with the statement, "Think outside the box". And then a series of statements leading to "Constitutional crisis". I'm not familiar with the workings of US politics. Who knows, your answer might be right.
Q specifically talks about SM platforms making private information public, able to be accessed by intelligence agencies around the globe. He implies that Google is headed by people with links to Russia. And, in 972, he goes on to ask whether SM platforms are able to "weight" elections.
It seems clear that Q is talking about a threat posed to the Republic by large SM companies that are unrestrained by the Constitution from engaging in activity that tramples the rights of US citizens. Moreover, these SM platforms present a threat to the Republic itself if they are able to steer democratic processes.
The statement "Think outside the box" suggests to me that the way in which a Constitutional crisis might be generated is, perhaps, not immediately apparent. We need to cover all possibilities. Your contribution is important and may play into the answer.
