I got a lot of grief on a liberal site back in the middle of the Obama years for suggesting we may be on the verge of civil war. Since then, I realized we’ve been in a cold civil war for over a decade and it WILL get hot. It’s not about if. It is about when. It just needs a catalyst
It could be anything from Republicans sweeping the mid-terms to Trump’s re-election. But I have little doubt the left will, when they come to grips with their utter lack of political power, act out violently. Worse than 1968 Chicago. And we will meet them.

I’m older that a lot of you and can remember the 1968 Dem Convention very well. That was when there were real “conservative Dems.” Scoop Jackson was a patriotic Dem senator who opposed the Lib tide that was already beginning to fight to take over the Dem party.
Anyway, the riots that took place were just scattered, even the race riots. Most of the country had no violence and was disgusted by it. This is what brought Nixon to power. I am afraid that the violence will be most more widespread if Trump wins a second term.
