Why Democrats Would Lose the Second Civil War, Too
It’s obvious that the central tenet of the Democrat Party platform is now hatred and contempt for Normal Americans. Taking their cue from the elites in Europe and Canada who are stripping dissenters of their free speech rights and religious freedoms, the leftist elite is moving to solidify its hold on power here with the eager assistance of tech companies and the moral support of the Fredocons who yearn to return to pseudo-relevance as the ruling class’s slobberingly loyal opposition.
Democrats, who think history began when Obama was elected, don’t understand the dangerous game they are playing when they talk about how they want to impose their brown shirt vision upon red America. The keyboard commandos of the left seek to hand wave away the massive strategic challenge of imposing control by force upon a well-armed, decentralized citizenry occupying the vast majority of the territory, so they babble about drones and tanks as counterinsurgency trump cards. But there are no trump cards in war. There are men, with rifles, standing on patches of dirt, killing the people trying to push them off. That’s the ugly reality of war. And multiply the usual brutality of war by ten when it’s a civil war.

I'll have to research the topic(hit up CNN, Buzzfiend, Vox) and get back to you.
But my kneejerk response is that the left is full of so much intelligence and physical strength that I find it hard to believe.

I see a Red October. There are enough disenfranchised people to put a real hurt on people.
Communist Bernie Sanders is trying for a Red November.

You have an extremely biased media that are on the ropes right now... they can either quadruple down on the narrative or at some point are going to have to move to the center.

It just isn't there yet.
The left won't go to war at all.

I agree they are on the ropes, but they are incapable of changing at this point. They are no longer journalists, but are activists first and foremost, and as such dont care about anything but agenda driven pseudo events. Until journalism schools start teaching the actual tenets of journalism again this is how it will be going forward with the media, unfortunately.

I think it depends whether they try to kill President Trump.
If they succeed, I think all bets are off and things will get hairy.
Hopefully we won't find out.
