Americans basically want to be left alone and live in peace w and prosper. We want the rule of law followed and enforced equally.

Yep, leave us alone and it all goes away, but they can’t do that!

The commie dems and their republican allies will not allow Trump to have a second term.

Please re-read that and understand what it means.

When that happens what will you do?

Are you ready?

How much of a loss are you willing to sacrifice?

Columbia U must be a real communist snake pit. From what I’ve seen of people associated with it, I’d never seen a decent human being in the bunch.

He said a civil war like fracture or fissure, as I recall...evidently Columbia U grads are deficient in reading comprehension and listening skills.

It sure as hell isn’t Trump advocating for civil war. That would be you and your CNN acolytes committing a coup against the President.

Those kinds of things are known to inflame war talk you CNN idiot.

whether he is dog-whistling to violent groups who promote white supremacy or is just being sloppy

The are a host of other possibilities, such as, unlike our hateful cringing spineless collussionist sell-out backstabbing feckless RINOs, the man fights.

Well, when we see that the swamp is turning the might of government against the arguably most powerful man in the world, those of us who do not have even an iota of that power rightly are concerned about those same forces being turned against us. And if the swamp will not desist and leave us alone to live our lives peacefully, we might not comply peacefully with their desire to impose absolute control on us. So if we end up in a civil war, it is entirely the controlling left’s doing.

Has Trump ever called for an independent militarized force equal to the military?

******

On July 2, 2008, then presidential candidate, Barack Obama said, "We cannot rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We gotta have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded."

Gotta end the gene pool of these people...total war.

Tweeting about a civil war scares CNN, but them perpetrating one doesn’t?
~~~
Exactly.
~~~

They are also perfectly happy to use and abuse the fear of non-conservative violence and civil chaos as a fear tool against policy. I’ve heard them (or their ilk) actually say that it would be a very bad idea to do ________ because there could be a reaction in the streets.

But no, this discussion is moot, because Trump WILL NOT be removed from office. Even if he were, I think you’d be surprised how comparatively different, organized, and civilly active (even mostly civilly responsible) conservative reaction would be if he was... and I think that would scare CNN more than any kind of rioting or violence TBH.

But again... doesn’t matter. Trump will be president until 2024, and then it’s Jim Jordan’s turn.

"a quote from Fox News contributor Robert Jeffress, an evangelical pastor from Texas, who warned that if Trump were successfully removed from office, civil war would follow."

Once again we have leftists and their major media outlet friends who either can't read or understand spoken English or who are intentionally lying about what somebody said. Pastor Jeffress did not say their would be a civil war, rather he said:

"If the Democrats are successful in removing the President from office (which they will never be), it will cause a Civil War like fracture in this Nation from which our Country will never heal.”

Pastor Jeffress is a well spoken, educated man who picked his words carefully. After all public speaking is his profession. A "Civil War like fracture" is not a civil war. He is describing the profound set of feelings which were caused by the Civil War, and the politics leading up to it, not the war itself. If Pastor Jeffress wanted to say there would be a civil war he would have said so. Nobody that can read or speak English thinks a "fracture" is a synonym for a "war".

The left is just making up fake quotes, and attributing statements to people that they just didn't make.

Wake up! The "Deep State" has been at war with the American People for years! They almost staged a coup d'état and have not given up on their objective!

There’s ALREADY a ‘civil-war like fracture’ in this country.

“If we were inherently violent, you’d have heard about it by now.”

We’d be roaming the streets in armed bands like the Freie Korps groups in Germany after WWI, beating up political opponents and waving banners.

Antifa claims that violent role, now.

Instead, we hunker down in our homes with our guns and no organization at all to rally around, other than the heartening phenomenon of a Trump rally, where tens of thousands of patriots need not feel alone in their love of America and its enduring values.

Because Trump tweeted it and CNN thinks he’s scary.

I think until the CW2 actually starts, being decentralized, and relying on the rule of law is the way to go... for now.

Remember, those who will be ordered by the tyrants to take our freedoms, law enforcement and military, are sworn to uphold and defend the constitution, and they may be very likely on our side.
