Any of his idiot base that think it's worthwhile to have a....checks notes....civil war over this stupid buffoon deserve the inevitable outcome.
Let's get on with it! I'm still waiting for the AR-15 waving morons on mobility scooters getting mowed down.
the AR-15 waving morons on mobility scooters
Oh, the Chairborne Rangers? Or is it Meal Team Six? Or the Gravy Seals? Of course, we also know the Talibangelicals, Walmartyrs, the Yeehawdists and the Oaf Keepers. But there are also the Q Cucks Clan, Cupcake Commandos, Vanilla Isis and Midlife Isis, but don't forget the Green Beignets, Waffle SS, 1st Chairborne, KFC-9, Special Farces and Snack Ops.
As you can see, they are a very diverse [all-white] group of [seriously hungry] patriots!
Shouldn't come as a surprise really. They have even set a date for April the 12th
There will be no "civil war" until republicans win again.
Cops are gonna cop either way (so do nothing other than find the nearest brown kid they can beat on until The Public gets mad enough that they have to act). Even a bunch of untrained gravy seals with ar-15s are going to leave the cops shitting themselves and crying while they play gacha games on their phones. It is the military (mostly National Guard) who are going to matter.
And Jan 6 already showed how that plays out. They are going to do whatever they are ordered to. So if the POTUS is actively trying to murder the VPOTUS and the president pro tem and so forth? Doesn't matter because the person they report to is telling them to not act or, after seeing Jan 6 "fail", to impose martial law to protect the country. Just.. not over there. We got some uppity negros what need putting down first.
If anyone who actually cares about the country is in power (so... Democrats and a very small subset of third parties)? We roll up on the gravy seals with a few drones that drop tear gas and we are done. If it is the republicans? It won't be a "civil war" so much as a series of lynchings.
The problem is that we're approaching politics like sports. We root for our team, and boo the other side relentlessly. Government, though, is not a zero-sum game. We don't automatically win when the other side loses, and sometimes we all lose.
The confusion with the Cannon case in this thread is apt, actually. Because we all do the same stuff. We just think we have facts in our side. I've openly wondered whether Cannon has a new RV in her driveway, after reading some of her rulings. All the shit that the MAGAs are saying about the other judges, we are saying about Cannon. We can't both be right.
This is the real civil war here. It won't be Sherman carving a path to the sea. But it will be two sides with such different ideas about what is true that "patriots" will take it upon themselves to conduct asymmetrical warfare. i think it will look more like Belfast in the 1970's than Atlanta in the 1860's.
One random guy on Twitter "there will be a civil war!"
Raw Story: "THE REPUBLICANS ARE THREATENING CIVIL WAR!"
I guess "random Twitter account spouts bullshit" isn't as compelling a headline.
Well, it wouldn't be too difficult to defeat a gullible and unstable army
Bring it on, fatties!
Sounds a lot like a threat to me.
Commenter Michale Darwin wrote, "Look at the judge's body language. Anyone can see that that judge hates Trump's guts. Or that judge has taken some sort of a bribe,"
They are so fucking delusional.
Cannon is one of the FLORIDA judges. Not GEORGIA.

Sure Jan
Cool bros, you'll lose.
