First and formost the military is about to be bankrupted and defunded by the same arrogant elitists trying to take our freedom.
Secondly, and most importantly, the hostile nations salivating at the demise of the USA.
The unknown factor of outside influence is what will tip the scales one way or another.
Many in the pentagon will sacrifice Dear leader for their families safety when the threat from without grows.
“First and formost the military is about to be bankrupted and defunded by the same arrogant elitists trying to take our freedom.”
Yes and this happened in Germany (1918), Russia (1917) and France (1788) and if you know history that did not bode well for elitists. It is tipping that way.
“Secondly, and most importantly, the hostile nations salivating at the demise of the USA.”
In all liklihood, foreign powers would stay out (with troops and substantial support to one side) as they did in CW1; it’s always better to wait for the outcome before intervening in a civil war.
However, I would not rule out covert support for the rebels. If China wants to invade Taiwan and expand its influence in the Pacific, a US CW2 is great. China could further destabilize the US by demanding payment on our bonds. Russia may seek to expand in the artic and may actually to fund the independent Alaska independence movement with arms and supplies.
Once these things are seen by the military, a coup become a distinct possiblity. What happens after that is anyone’s guess. But, that being said I would certainly take my chances on a military dictator over 0bama. 0bama has an evil streak as evidenced by the fact that he has no problems with the death of US diplomats and border agents if it serves his purposes. So, IMO, 0bama does have the personality charcteristic needed to carry out the murder of Americans.
Most every nation on the planet has an interest in reducing America's influence if they can't control it, so much of the likely foreign interference will be duplicitous.
Officially they will strongly support Obama and the most strident gun controllers. Behind the scenes, they will smuggle all the support and weapons possible to the targeted gun owning population. The longer and more difficult (for the nation) the rebellion is, the weaker America becomes in influence everywhere in the world.
And that is the point, as the world's only superpower military that most other nations cannot control, the safest thing for them is a much weaker America, one where the military doesn't get along with itself, the people, or the politicians, a divided nation AND military.
Likewise, wise foreigners don't want a clean Obama success, putting that overwhelming US Military in the unchecked hands of a petulant Marxist child, so they will see this conflict become as destructive to America , and last as long, as possible.
