Remember that the Trump administration still has large support from the people! If you want a civil war, you need people inside the country who disagree. For some reason they don't (yet), and at the time they do who knows how much damage will have been done.
Please stop spreading propaganda. Most Americans don't support Trump. At best, a third of Americans voted for him in 2024, which means two-thirds didn't.
And he's rapidly losing support within his own base, from people who didn't expect him to go as far as he has, or didn't expect the ramifications to apply to them.
I don't feel like I'm spreading propaganda by saying that the US don't seem very close to a civil war. A majority of the voters elected this government and apparently won't change their mind unless they are impacted personally.
> And he's rapidly losing support within his own base
That depends a lot on what you mean by "rapidly". Relative to how quickly he has destroyed the image of the US abroad, and to the damage he is making inside the country, I wouldn't say that some people from his own base finding that he is going slightly too far counts as "rapidly losing support within his own base".
Sure, but you need quite a few people ready to fight. And if it is the case that Trump would still be elected today, it suggests that all the voters and most of the non-voters (who don't care enought to vote) and at least some of those who would now vote against the nazi-friendly government are not exactly ready to fight.
You need a lot of very unhappy people to get to civil war. And right now it doesn't seem like the US people is that unhappy. Right now the US is mostly hurting the rest of the West.
Friend, I didn't post propaganda or rhetoric, I posted math. Feel free to post sources to the contrary, or explain what you consider misleading. Simply claiming that everything is propaganda is neither constructive nor interesting conversation.
No, you posted copium. People not voting doesn't mean that they don't support Trump, it only menas they didn't bother to vote. The baseline assumption is that non-voters have the same distribution of opinions as voters. If you want to make a different argument you better back it up with more than "TRUMP BAD".
Are you familiar with relatively common phrase that originated from "Lies, damned lies, and statistics"[1]? I am curious. Not whether you do, but how you will respond.
It's more nuanced than it might appear at first glance. I recommend watching this video, as it demonstrates the subtle complexities involved: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_sVwib2rdE
One possibility is that at least some of his "supporters" do not as much as want trump specifically but instead simply vehemently do not want what the Democrats have been doing and are willing to risk some chaos to avoid that. If that's the case (and I think it is) then the best thing that trumps opponents can do is provide real alternatives for people. Or in other words: stop attacking a large part of the population (straight white males) at every opportunity, stop trying to force radical social change, stop trying to cancel everyone with an even slightly differing opinion.
Honestly, I'm not sure, I don't know how you can look at the actions Trump took in the last few days and not at least consider the possibility that he is russian asset.
