    Trump gave the military its first real pay raise in years.
    Biden seeks to restrict the second Amendment.
    Trump clobbered ISIS.
    Biden armed the terrorist Taliban.
    Trump allowed terminal patients to use drugs not fully tested that might offer hope.
    Biden killed pipeline jobs and US energy independence.
    Trump got us back in space on US-made rockets.
    Biden got 13 US Soldiers killed at the Kabul airport.

    This is NOT an ELEMENTARY school PLAY GROUND! :eek:

    I RECOMMEND that you REFRAIN from PROJECTING your own ISSUES onto others IMMEDIATELY.

    If YOU persist YOU will be REPORTED for PF Rule VIOLATIONS.

    Either SUPPORT your own DEBUNKED bovine excrement allegations with CREDIBLE sources or DEAL with the FACT that it has ALREADY been DEBUNKED.

    Just POSTING bovine excrement allegations REPEATEDLY does NOT alter the FACT that they are extremist rightwing DISINFORMATION.

    FACTS matter, your OPINIONS do NOT alter the FACTS.

    REGURGITATION of DEBUNKED falsehoods is just a WASTE of TIME and BANDWIDTH.

    YOU offer NOTHING in the way of CREDIBLE bipartisan sources for that MASSIVE load of BOVINE EXCREMENT above.

    Sad!

    It depends on how you define a civil war. Since the far right and the far left are just about everywhere, and not really just in specific areas, it would be hard for one area to fight another area. It basically boils down to rural areas and suburbs are more right and large cities are more left. But, there really are no clear lines of territory as there was in the North fighting the South. For example, even the states of California and New York have probably more red counties than they have blue counties and in the deep red states, the large cities are actually pure blue. Your normal definition of a civil war would be hard to apply. A war would have to be fought with no boundaries involved, which is kind of what is happening already. Both sides fight for the democracy of winner takes all the spoils. Whatever side can muster up 50.1% to the other sides 49.9%, attempts to claim a mandate to cram their values down the 100%.

    As long as you refuse to list any SPECIFIC issues you have, refuse to discuss them, and refer, childishly, only to "bovine excrement".... you do not appear to want to engage in any adult conversation. Until you list what issues you have difficulty with and stop using immature phrases like "bovine excrement"... I'll simply wait for you to identify the issues you have a problem with.

    What documented facts do you have (please enclose SOURCES) that white supremacists rioted and looted in response to the death of a black man.

    WAR is an absolute term. CHAOS is possible in the USA. WAR is a lot less likely.

    BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAAA!

    Kindly REFRAIN from PROJECTING your OWN issues onto others.

    All you have done is DUMP a list of FALLACIES and "childishly" PRETEND that they have "merit" WITHOUT providing anything REMOTELY resembling CREDIBLE substantiation.

    The ONUS remains on YOU to PROVE each and every single ONE of your puerile BOGUS allegations because that is how ADULTS debate.

    When YOU make an allegation and YOU are subsequently CALLED UPON to SUBSTANTIATE your allegation then it is ENTIRELY up to YOU to do so.

    Your FAILURE to do so means that you FORFEIT your position.

    That is WHERE you stand at PRESENT.

    SAD!

    Have YOU already FORGOTTEN the CREDIBLE SOURCES that were PROVIDED directly to YOU in post #88 above?

    http://www.politicalforum.com/index...e-next-10-years.592980/page-4#post-1073020821

    UNLIKE you I provide CREDIBLE SUBSTANTIATION for my positions.

    SAD that YOU appear to be INCAPABLE of doing likewise however that is TYPICAL of supporters of YOUR lying biggest *LOSER*.

    ISIS was STILL fighting and KILLING US troops long AFTER YOUR biggest *LOSER* took ALL of the CREDIT for the Obama INITIATIVE against ISIS.

    https://theconversation.com/who-really-defeated-the-islamic-state-obama-or-trump-148066

    https://russiamatters.org/analysis/who-defeated-isis-analysis-us-and-russian-contributions

    So YOUR biggest *LOSER* was LYING and fallaciously CLAIMING credit for what Obama, Putin and other nations accomplished.

    FURTHERMORE just taking a capitol is MEANINGLESS when dealing with an ASYMETRIC opposing force.

    ISIS is STILL an ACTIVE fighting force in the Middle East.

    Strike ONE!

    Next!

    I hope this stays in the news. Under pressure, if the FBI is compelled to arrest their own agents, the silly 1/6 nonsense may go away. Not that I think they wouldn't throw their own agents under the bus, but they won't because those same agents would begin talking, to the press, etc. FBI has too many secrets to let that happen.

    In said Trump CLOBBERED ISIS. Anyone in their right might would agree that capturing an enemy's LARGEST CITY (Mosul) and CAPITOL CITY (RAQQA) is CLOBBERING THEM. Did he kill every single member of ISIS? NO. We clobbered Japan yet many Japanese STILL LIVE! We CLOBBERED Germany but many Germans STILL LIVE! So , yes Virginia, Trump CLOBBERED ISIS.

    Far from hurting ISIS, Obama CREATED ISIS: nationalreview.com/article/427388/obama-iraq-errors-made-isis-sunni-alliance

    YOUR biggest *LOSER* took CREDIT for what someone ELSE accomplished

    FURTHERMORE your Extremist Rightwing DISINFORMATION about Obama and ISIS is another load of bovine excrement.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_State

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_State#History

    So according to the FACTS ISIS gained STRENGTH thanks ENTIRELY to the WARMONGERING Bush/Cheney REGIME that PREDATED Obama.

    FACTS matter and as usual your content LACKS credible facts.

    You're right, Te... there won't be another civil war.

    The whole issue of freedom for citizens in their individual states, directly addressed in no uncertain terms in the 10th Amendment to the Constitution, was obliterated during the first civil war.

    Next, the whole issue of a self-supporting, self-responsible citizenry with the freedom to succeed or fail on the basis of MERIT in a free-market society was obliterated during the second civil war which began under the Obama regime. Now we are being propelled toward a "1984-esque" Neo-socialism under Pelosi, Schumer, Kamala-la-la Harris, Janet Yellen, and that decayed relic they prop up in the White House, Geriatric Joe Biden!

    Fun FACT Upon Reading This Thread:

    27 People (Claim) to actually believe that there is a chance (even a minuscule one) of Civil War within the next 10 years.

    How is that even possible?

    A Civil War (in the USA) within the next 10 years...
    ...is LESS LIKELY...

    Civil War is almost impossible. It takes a functioning society to keep Apaches and F-16's flying, armies supplied with sophisticated ammunition like Javelin and Tow, and communications systems up and running. It would be a "Civil War" waged on the level of the last one. What IS possible is total chaos. Think of the riots in Minneapolis and Kenosha. Now multiply that by hundreds of cities. Hunger, homelessness... no meaningful medical care because of a lack of power and maintenance. That CHAOS will create a wasteland out of which will appear something new. And whether its a totally disorganized Medieval Model, a regionally based warlord structure, a national socialist distatorship, or living under the heel of a foreign invader... whatever ensues... won't be pretty.
