August 2025:
*Trump Gets a Laugh from Zelenskyy After Joking That ‘if We Happen to Be in a War’ in 2028, ‘No More Elections*.
This is what Trump wants – Civil War so he can declare himself as president for life.
Corrupt SC justices are willing collaborators of Trump’s evil plan.

News flash: we still held elections even through the civil war, WWI, WW2, etc. War, civil or otherwise, has never been a reason not to hold elections. In fact, there is no precedent for the president (or anyone else) cancelling elections in US history. None. And the president doesn’t have the authority to cancel elections even – none. Zero. Nada.

See, in order to have a proper civil war both sides would have to be willing to fight. I see very little of that in any of the “opposition” leaders. Most of them would probably support the regime rather than take a stand on anything

Any GOP senators out there, you know your job won’t exist if we lose the Constitution? Why are you silent? Your job and freedom goes down the same toilet as the rest of the country.

Why is Minnesota the epicenter of ICE operations?
The states with the most illegal immigrants are 1. California has over 2 million, has a crime problem, is a sanctuary state and the administration has little political capital to lose in the state. Next is 2. Texas with slightly less that Cali but still over 2 million, followed by FL, NY NJ, IL, NC, GA, WA, and AZ. Minnesota doesn’t crack the top 10. In terms of density, the states with the highest percentage of illegal immigrants are FL, NV, NJ, MD, CA, CT, and TX.
Why is Minnesota ground zero?

I’ll put it this way … we’re stuck in an abusive relationship. We can’t stand them and they can’t stand us (Left vs Right). But we are too stubborn to accept a divorce (breaking of our country into separate nations as secession is not an option). So here’s where we are as a nation. We’re in an abusive and bad marriage.
“I hate you. You hate me. But if you try to leave me I’ll kill you.”
That’s where we’re at now as a country.

This headline makes it sound like Minnesota is rebelling and the administration is just acting normally. So tired of these sanewashing headlines.
None of this was happening until trump took the reins. This is all on his administration.

We’re already in a cold civil war. I live in Portland and thankfully we’re not too polarized here, we’re mostly on the same side but I have friends in eastern Oregon that are definitely living in towns that are split 50/50 but it’s eastern Oregon. Everyone has guns.

We have to vote and make sure those votes are counted and validated, but that is not civil war.

Fears? What fears? They’ve been wanting this and wanting a national divorce for quite some time. I say we honor their wishes. Have fun welfare queens! Plus, I’m sure a pandemic, or measles or some other vaccinated disease will take them out in short order, so this will be over rather quick.

Just a thought. Maybe if we didn’t have gangs of masked, heavily armed thugs roaming our streets abducting people, tear gassing, pepper spraying, and violating our First, Second, Fourth, and Fifth amendment rights… Then maybe, just maybe, we might be talking about who’s going to win the Superbowl instead of a civil war.

This article gave language to a lot of my thoughts lately. I thought there would be a clear knowing when we crossed the rubicon (civil war, democracy, etc). Instead it feels like the lid is about to blow and a lot of us don’t know we’re in the cooker.
I’ve been curious about historical parallels – besides what’s been part of mainstream discussion (Russia/Putin and Germany/Hitler). Please share if you’re knowledgeable on the topic.

There won’t be a civil war because Trump is looking for any excuse to invoke the insurrection act and enact martial law. There won’t be a civil war. There will be an occupation of America by Trump and his fascist pedophile gestapo, and an insurgency in response.
Remember, Trump will stop at nothing to distract you from the fact that he and his friends raped children.
NewWindow7980 on
There is a fantasy in the rightwing that a civil war would involve their “side” getting to crush the “other side” which will not be able to fight back. They severely lack the reality connection that would tell them that a violent civil war would cause real suffering on all sides. Trump’s ICE mostrosity is allowing them to live that fantasy vicariously, at least for now.
The president of Heritage Foundation, Kevin Roberts, said in 2024 *”We are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be.”* The idea that the so-called left or anyone else would just roll over and “allow it” shows how out of touch they are with the fire they are gleefully paying with.

Ask yourselves if the republicans and democrats can come back to the table and talk like civilized adults? The gap between the two sides seems irreparable. With no strong voices of rationality on both sides the pressure has to be alleviated one way or other.

At this point, the federal government is openly, actively antagonistic toward the people of the United States. They were already fucking us for years, but, now? This is nakedly adversarial, daring the people to do something as the state thinks (and so far, mostly has) it will get away with it.
Kind of ironic that the republican party will ultimately be directly responsible for the open Civil War 2.0.

If a true American Civil War were to happen in this era, 2026…Republicans and red states would be swiftly and quickly crushed.
As one commenter said…red states are exceptionally mismanaged and under-resourced state to state, as compared to blue states. Red states are basically the leeches of America, and blue states are the hosts.
Republicans are the most ignorant, arrogant human beings. They live in a grand delusion of the future they envision for themselves, akin to a Handsmaid’s Tale. In reality, their future would be closer to Mad Max’s universe.
But in reality, if another American Civil War would truly happen again…assuming no foreign intervention…Blue States would absolutely crush Red States, much more harshly than the original Civil War, and rightfully so.
We weren’t harsh enough to the Confederacy after the Civil War, and this is the result, 175 years later. We didn’t extinguish the idea of racism and superiority harshly enough.
Should America regain lawfulness and justice again, I surely hope that Republican and conservatism ideology is crushed to oblivion. This ideology will forever be regressive to our civilization as a whole.
