    To be honest, WE probably want a civil war more than they do right now.

    I think very few people ACTUALLY want a civil war, Trump included. It’d be a whole lot easier for him if everyone just complied and let him do what he wants. He’s more than willing to deal with a civil war, but if it happens, it will be because he’s gone too far (as if he hasn’t already) and the first “act of war” is going to be from the left in retaliation.

    Again, not saying it wouldn’t be justified, but the White House would rather ease us into compliance than fight a war.

      I suspect civil trouble was their agenda to get more boots on the ground to start with (whilst they can keep fiddling around, as Rome burns).

      It also takes eyes off the Epstein files.
