Minnesota Shows Why the Left Will Win America’s 2026 Civil War
American Thinker ^ | 26 Jan, 2026 | Vince Coyner

The saddest thing about this is that the Republicans will work with the left to ensure their victory.

The United States is facing an existential threat. My guess is this summer will be the most violent, damaging domestic summer since the Civil War. And I predict the left will win and come out victorious on the other side. They will, after winning this new civil war, seek to eliminate the last vestiges of republicans.

I use a small r because while some Republicans are true republicans, most are not. And when the left wins the war, those RINOs are going to “work with” Democrats to create the illusion that America is still a republic, but it won’t be. They will use every tool available to silence dissent, take control over virtually every sector of American life, and they will implement rules so that America becomes a one-party nation.

Now I say all of this with the great hope that I am wrong, but I don’t think I will be.

The cowardly Republicans are going to cave in every conceivable manner in order to try to forestall a civil war. At every level, they are going to give in to the left, they are going to “compromise” their principles, and they are going to betray their voters and our Founding Fathers.

And I mean that at every level in every branch. There is simply no universe where Republicans have the intestinal fortitude to do what’s right in the face of withering attacks from the left.

There is literally no better example of this than election integrity. Nothing animates GOP voters like election integrity. Not abortion. Not welfare fraud. Not guns. (A majority of Democrats support it as well!) Literally nothing gets rank-and-file Republicans more animated in 2026 than elections

"I predict the left will win"

Your prediction is boneheaded.

The leftist mob will awaken a Sleeping Giant and fill Him with a terrible resolve!

The technology survived.

It won't this time. The inter-dependencies of today's technology is much deeper and the knowledge base to keep it going is highly distributed. The knowledge itself is way more complex than that of the Roman era.

Just like it did in Russia, Cuba, China, Laos, Cambodia, and Thailand?

Ethno states will do just fine.

—China
—Japan
—India
—Israel
—Saudi Arabia
—Russia

It is the “melting pots” of the West that are facing dissolution and doom.

Congress could create a country called Trumpstan.

It would have one citizen who would be President of Trumpstan, its sole ‘voter’, and its sole judge. It would have no taxes or welfare.

‘Refugees’ could be sent to this country. Their security could be provided for by ICE under treaty.

Congress could provide by law that the President could deport aliens he believes to be undesirable to this new country.

That’s why the 19th amendment has to go while we still have a chance.

Seems to me that unless Democrats are planning a full out shooting war, what else will they do? It has been known now for some time & should be obvious to most anyone that they don’t have any kind of platform that an informed citizen would vote for. What does that leave?

Illinois is a complete Left Wing Manure Pile - but The Democrats are expected to win every State Wide office in 2026. Former Republican stronghold DuPage County is now Deep Blue - The Left has completely taken over The Land of Lincoln.

“....it just takes a majority vote.

Republicans in the Senate need to stop making excuses and just do it.”

I don’t believe Republicans have the needed program reform legislation written.

MTG could have sponsored it before bolting.

They will win only if all the veterans that swore to protect the US die an early death and are not around to oppose their takeover.

The inter-dependencies of today's technology is much deeper and the knowledge base to keep it going is highly distributed. The knowledge itself is way more complex than that of the Roman era.

and can be stored and transmitted anywhere. It's backed up in multiple locations.

We're reverting to where we'll have people "discovering" computer equipment in garbage dumps the way people find ancient coins in European gardens.

Like when painted natives on remote islands would see airplanes flying overhead, people living among ruins of cities connected by abandoned rail lines and unused roads will see satellites passing overhead at night, steadily blinking as a reminder that people in other parts of the world moved on.

They'll be kept intentionally ignorant through indoctrination, given government scripts to believe and plenty of soma to keep them from thinking.

It started a century ago.

There is going to be a fight. Let’s get it started and over with.

Folks,

We need to get used to that idea now and think about our role in the fight.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State.........................

It is the Militia, the people, that are necessary. There are many roles and tools. But we have to know clearly what we are fighting for.

IF I SHAKE YOU AWAKE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT AND ASK YOU WHAT YOU ARE FIGHTING FOR, AFTER YOU REACH FOR YOUR GUN, WHAT DO YOU TELL ME?

Trump has an answer to that, we should also.

This is a classic Color Revolution that is starting in Minneapolis. It is well financed and well coordinated including coordination in local and state government and LEO, but everyone is acting like it is a grassroots protest. I am all with you on fighting back. I am not going to be ruled by these people.

Is that a “giving up”, realistic statement, OR A CHALLENGE TO YOU?

I think the author intended the article as a wakeup call and a challenge.

I agree, it is a test. But many here don’t understand the test.
