Nope. No way.

Civil Wars happen in places where there are large numbers of unemployed young men. You need demographics where men aged about 16-25 outnumber men over 35 and you need unemployment overall well over 15%.

If and when the US slides towards 25% unemployment, that’s the time to worry.

Sounds about right - but I'd add that those men aged 16-25 also would also be unsuccessfully seeking employment - i.e., want a job and unable to find one - and not living with their parents or welfare dependent girlfriend.

EXACTLY. We're no where close to a shooting conflict. Never have a group of humans lived with such a high quality of life as we have in the US today. It is very easy to give away liberty when you're well fed, have outstanding medical care, and a tremendous amount of perceived freedom.

We, as the overtaxed class are too small to revolt on that alone, despite carrying the load of so many freeloaders.

There is zero chance of a shooting civil war anytime in the near future. Even door to door gun confiscation virtually zero chance of any meaningful armed response... although I also don't think we're anywhere close to that...

If the Dems impeach and remove, you won't even have much in the way of peaceful protest by his supporters. Maybe a few here and there, but nothing meaningful. We're 150 years into a slow surrender of most fundamental liberties, and there aren't many left that could trigger a shooting conflict.
