Of all the reasons to start a civil war, preserving slavery is the worst. But keeping President Trump in power is pretty high up on the list.
On Sunday, Trump tweeted the following statement by evangelical pastor Robert Jeffress: "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."
Jeffress isn't the only one predicting civil strife. Rudy Giuliani warned that impeaching Trump would risk "domestic tranquillity [sic]." Franklin Graham said that impeachment "could lead to conflict that nobody wants." "This is war," actor Jon Voight proclaimed.
The same people who mocked Hillary Clinton's voters for grieving after the 2016 election now say they will start a civil war if Trump is impeached in accordance with the Constitution.
Their premonitions are a sign of weakness. If you cannot argue your case with logic and evidence, you can appeal to faith or resort to threats of violence. Trump has done both. Prior to the 2018 midterms, Trump told a group of Christian leaders, "This November 6 election is very much a referendum on not only me. It's a referendum on your religion. It's a referendum on free speech and the First Amendment. It's a referendum on so much. It's not a question of like or dislike. It's a question that they will overturn everything that we've done, and they will do it quickly and violently."

It’s not about keeping Trump in power, it’s about keeping the deep state from getting entrenched even deeper.
Damn these people have balls. This is just what they have done to Trump and us for nearly four years.
“Of all the reasons to start a civil war, preserving slavery is the worst. “
It wasn’t the reason.
IIRC the Democrats refused to accept the results of the 1860 election.
They need to know that this is not really about Trump.
If there is war, it’s about them.
Them.
It’s a big list.
We swallowed the Kenyanesian Usurpation.
They think we will swallow anything.
They always lie....but, you know that.
What the Left has done to our history is criminal.
Best get about it!
Trump will not succumb to an illegitimate impeachment.
He also will not lose in 2020 due to shenanigans and massive fraud.
This may sound over-the-top but I can’t see Trump stepping down under such circumstances.
He would move extra-judicially if the Judiciary is corrupt. He will call upon the military if need be.
He would do it for us, but he would CERTAINLY do it for his wife and children...if he were forced out his family would be crucified and eventually jailed on false charges..
Trump don’t play that.
If it comes down to that, they will have drawn first blood.
Then what was in your opinion?
Exactly!
It was the Democrats that started the Civil War.
It was the Republicans that stomped the Democrats on the battlefield and won the Civil War.

If that was the reason how come the northern states didn’t ban slavery until after the civil war was over?
Keeping Trump in “power” is not the point. Author is an imbecile.
This from the people who say they are the “resistance”, and who have been making veiled threats of assassination.
