The next Civil War

[Spongebob]

Nothing has changed. The people at the head of the MAGA movement absolutely, positively do NOT want a civil war.

Could local MAGA ‘militias’ (they aren’t that, not really) create some low-level violence, blow up a few buildings? Probably. But the sort of wide-spread anarchy you seem to be getting in a twist over? Nah. Why? Because these Beer Belly Brigade type armed with great-grandpappy’s squirrel gun are no match for an actual militia.

Who do you consider to be at the "head" of maga?  To me that's Trump and Trump wants any sort of anarchy that seems to glorify him.  No sitting elected GOP member currently would thwart him under any circumstances.  The few who opposed him are gone.

Those beer belly types are armed with a lot more than squirrel guns.  If Jan. 6 was any indication, a second wave of maga terrorism could be far worse.  The biggest failure of the Jan. 6 insurrection was its poor organization.  What I don't know much about is the state of the military leaders and service people.  There are some generals who have spoken out about the possibility of a military coup in Jan. 2025 and I wouldn't take that threat lightly.

Am I being paranoid?  Maybe.  But after everything I've seen in the last eight years, I'm not ruling anything out.  This country has gone to shit.
