If enough Americans come away from the 2020 election having lost confidence in the election system itself, the American experiment is over.
There is a very real possibility that no matter who wins, the other side is going to call foul and full out rebel. I'm not talking riots. I'm talking bombings, assassinations, raids, ambushes and eventually full on civil war.
All that's needed is for one third of the people to rise up against one third of the people while the last one third does nothing. I will not be a part of the one third who does nothing.

There will not be a civil war because civil wars require competing establishments. All the power centers in the country, including the Pentagon at this point, are on the same side.

So which third will you be in if Trump loses, and what do you plan on doing yourself, exactly?
The point being made in this thread is not about who wins; it's about the American voter's perception of the integrity of the election.
Plans are tactical. There are no circumstances for which to employ tactics. Goals and strategy are altogether different from plans and tactics.
But I can tell you this much, tactically, you should start by taking off that enormous covid mask and that ridiculous hat if you want to attack, defend or just not get noticed.
You said you’re not going to be in the third that does nothing. So which third will you be in, and what will you do?
If a predicted 50 million people get evicted, with the moratorium running out, on top of saying Trump winning, we might see anarchy, riots, and increasing civil unrest but nothing organized in the way of revolution, insurrection, or civil war.

If I frame a context, to suit a pretext, I can also hide a subtext. Indeed, I did it in my OP.
Are you suggesting the todays 'sides' are more lopsided than were the two sides in our revolution?
By far. The American colonies had been effectively self-governing for around a century. We had a ruling class and governing structure distinct from that of Britain. The same was basically true of the South in the Civil War. The Founding Fathers also benefited from an enemy that lacked confidence in the rightness of its own cause (the Confederates didn't have this advantage).
Today by contrast, we have one establishment, and they're all on the same side. Even the Pentagon demurred at the prospect of using force against left-wing mobs. There's simply no organizational structure in this country capable of directing a right-wing rebellion (and the left has no need for armed rebellion).

The problem that i have with the public, as to the private, and why I want to minimize it, is that the public is vested with the legal use of force.

As soon as the government decided that they can do a thing, regardless of their enumerated powers, and the citizens went along with it, it was pretty much over at that point. Now it is just a matter of choosing who your rulers will be. Neither side considers freedom in any piece of legislation they pass.
1. This must be a nightmare we are all living through.
2. Maybe I am in denial, but the idea of a violent upheaval is too horrible to even contemplate.
3. Throughout American history (except in the South during the Civil War), Americans have never experienced the hell of war on American soil. (E.g., just think of the hell that people in Russia went through when Germany invaded or the misery caused by Japan when it attacked weak China.)
4. Where in blazes are the adults in the American political room?
a. Both Democrats and Republicans have to get together and lower the temperature. Both President Trump and Speaker Pelosi have to shut their big mouths. The adults have to stop the crazies in the BLM & ANTIFA. The woke media have to stop the incitement to violence.
Unfortunately, that's the least likely thing that might happen. Do you have a plan-B if plan-A doesn't work out?
Is President Trump and Speaker Pelosi shutting their big mouths our only hope in you estimation?

When is Adam Schiff going to provide his proof that he claimed he had seen of Russian Collusion? Talk about people spreading bull.
