Did I miss something? Where is this happening?

Or if he uses military infrastructure funds and some base gets hit by terrorists. The funds that Trump can access are "unobligated" in that contracts have yet to be signed. Congress has, however, approved them for specific projects the military says it needs.

So Trump thinks he needs his wall more than the military needs security?

Do you honestly see traditional conservatives and far left types compromising? Do you see government working with these two groups controlling different parts of the government? If one side won power do you honestly see red state America submitting to socialism and PC? Do you see the blue states tolerating conservatives values and policies? We all know the answer to those questions. Civil war is highly possible and maybe inevitable. This is the reality of our seriously divided country.

There won’t be a civil war because the military will stop you in your tracks

Trump thinks and he ought not to do that ...

I heard though that they are talking about sensors ... that would play out, the wall ... doesn't play at all.

What makes you think the military that is made up of largely conservative people will fight for the leftists?

Any serious rebellion in this nation will be led by either a red state secession or a west coast led blue state secession.

The revolution was a colonial led secession from the British Empire.

The war of Northern Aggression (civil war) was led by state secession.

We are not Syria, a rival government made up of states would either fight for independence or for control of the entire country. Street riots are not our style, certainly us conservatives would never fight that way. Anything we do will be substantial and would have a strong chance of success.

Hypothetically speaking ...
If Every U.S. State Declared War Against the Others, Which Would Win?


Doesn't each state need a "well trained militia", just because? ...

The military fights for our country....period. Do you really want us to become a third world country with civil wars, killing our fellow Americans. How would that be a success
