A hot civil war wouldn't last long... they'd be chewed up fairly quickly. Hell, we wouldn't even need to use any kind of kinetic items. Just cut off the supply chains into their urban cesspits.
The major cities on the east a left coast have access to the world trade via sea ports. We can't cut them off that way.
