Who would fight said war? We have an aged population. It's going to take a great deal of resources caring for the boomers as the years go on. Millennials are far too soft to fight a real war. Maybe a civil war would strengthen all those noodle arms? Unlikely. It would be all the illegals doing the dirty work, for low wages, as usual. Most of them would be heading back to their home country to escape such insanity.
Americans are just going to have to learn to get along, as we always did. It's a big, dangerous world, and we are in it together. If we choose to fight ourselves, we will only succeed in making America an easier target for enemies abroad who want to see this nation fall.
Be glad I am not in charge. A wall will be built, welfare would end and the UN defunded. Bet that balances the budget.
If you believe that “building a wall, ending welfare and defunding the UN balances the budget” you’ve never looked at the federal budget and probably flunked math in high school.
Scattered civil conflict just might take off. Left and right squaring off and duking it out with the government trying to maintain order. But that is not a war. Civil unrest but hardly real civil war. When these civil war threads come up I just don't think that all the permutations are being taken into account as to what actual war entails in modern times.
Very well-said.
I think people get too caught up in the fantasy. I know I did, and I still do. But you still have to wake up to reality, whether you like it or not.
No, there will be no Civil War anytime soon. The Left are just talkers, except small factions like BLM, and ANTIFA do use violence, and rioting. The Right is too busy working, living their lives, and paying taxes.
The Right is armed. The Left are wets themselves at the talk of guns, except for the criminal element which are all Leftists, but again a minority.

Producing a welfare class, not having a wall, and being part of the UN is what got us to the point of having such a massive deficit spending problem.
Dems only answer is more taxes/wealth transfer/wealth confiscation and socialism. Things that have all been tried, and all lead to the same pathetic results.

But nothing ever does.
Trump won't be president forever. Republicans won't be in power forever. So remember your words when you are on the other side. And you will be.
As fun as it is to bash liberals, in the long-run, it won't benefit you at all. Quite the contrary.
