It would be all guerrilla warfare, not this open field-style kind of thing,

Fallacy. It would be huge organised armies fighting each other. This "guerrilla" warfare meme is designed to scare us into being sheeple.

Yes, the usual MSM lies and propaganda.

The SCV is a heritage organization. It’s meetings are more like book club meetings where members discuss what good books/articles have come out lately, sometimes have a guest speaker, etc. It is not a political organization. Of course since they don’t go along with PC Revisionist dogma, rooters and others in the MSM try to portray them as political, racist, scary, etc. standard Leftist tactics.

This is what's going to happen:

Trump's going to muddle through the Democrats' nullify-the-2016-Presidential-Election tantrum like he muddled through the Republican Primaries and the 2016 election--and come out a winner.

Trump will be re-elected in 2020 by a landslide.

The Democrats will screech, panic, and run for cover.

Trump will lead an investigation to expose the truth about political corruption. The corrupt politicians will be removed from power. Some will be thrown in jail.

There will be random acts of violence, but most Americans will awaken to the reality that Donald Trump is the hero America needs and the Greatest President in US History.

Trump will succeed in making America greater than ever.

Trump will grace Mt. Rushmore.

“There is no civil war. Yet. There is a ballot box nect November.Any “civil war’ would be when the leftist radicals of the Dem party refuse to accept the results of the upcoming Presidential election. Then all bets are off.”

You’re late to the dance, friend. The Dems refused to accept the results of the presidential election 3 years ago.

Actually, it would be both. It was ever thus.

The model for this civil war would be Russia circa 1917.

Yes, and France, 1789 - 1794. Even Spain in the 1930s could be a model. Most civil wars are hybrids. Our dust-up of 1861 - 1865 was an anomaly because it was NOT, in the truest sense, a civil war. Hell, our “Revolutionary War” was more of a civil war than 1861 - 1865.

I liked the story in the Washington Post that used “barn’ and “barnyard” seven times talking about a Trump rally. The Rooters crapweasels are human filth. We can shoot back with our confederate cannon keyboards.

You’re late to the dance, friend. The Dems refused to accept the results of the presidential election 3 years ago.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Then why, according to the surveys conducted at Trump rallies by Pascale, the Presidents campaign manager, reveal that 26% to 30% of rally attendees are registered Democrats?

It is the radical left wing of the Democrat Party that did not accept the election result 3 years ago, I call them the Alinsky cadre, but they were oraganized by the community organizer president of dirty name..It is this crowd that foments the potential social disorder and a possible civil war when President Trump wins the election in 2020.

Its not quite as simple as you say.

Yes let’s not rock the boat because there is no wining a war because it will be chaos and there will be no winners. That is how the status quo stays in place.

I think that because the reds and blues are mingled we'll not see a traditional battle. I believe it will be a battle of guerrilla warfare and attrition of the enemy.

I don't see why that would intimidate anyone.

That will not be the case in the vast majority of the country,

Yes in the interior that is where there will be no infighting. Whole areas and states will secede.
