No mention was made that a CWII was predicted or imminent.
What was asked concerned plausibility, not possibility.
Here’s a plausible scenario.
* Trump is either impeached or fails to be reelected (what Democrats think)
* Pence was involved in abuse of power regarding Ukraine and therefore must step down (stated by Schiff)
* Pelosi is sworn in as President
* Gun bans are expanded in regions surrounding DC
* 2A supporters and Trump avengers are declared as domestic terrorists
The question asked in the post to Publius is driven by a belief that wars benefit certain interests and the Democrats are part and parcel to those interests.
There is evidence that Democrats were secretly supporting war with NK and Iran.
There is plausibility that Governor Norham and his Democrat state legislature are setting the stage for Pelosi to ascend to the White House by securing areas having pockets of armed resistance giving her time to seize control of the US Army.
There is motive for Democrats to do the above. This is why such questions are asked, to get an idea of what Democrats are thinking to do. They know they are going to jail unless Trump and Pence are removed and they would think to have a force in place to put down reprisals.
It's the days immediately preceding the election and those immediately after that I worry about. Look up "Red Brigades" and "Tupemaros".
