It's getting closer. [View all]
Years ago, when what’s his name was in the Oval Office, there was talk of civil unrest. The bombastic comments from Republicans caused consternation among sanely minded people. As time went on, the realization of the GOP radicalizing our government became more apparent, with some on the right actually calling for execution of Democrats. We all read in disbelief during his first term.
Now, today, if you go down the list of the latest DU posts, you will see at least two posts about “going to war” and “cutting tethers to Trump supporters” - the thrust of which implied rough times ahead.
More and more we are now reading (in denial) that “war” with Republicans is a possibility - actual civil war. When Trump was first elected, I had predicted many things to my wife, most of which have been born out. I fear the days ahead as I see less and less middle ground. I pray (using the term as a generality) that the two sides can come to resolution, but it’s doubtful. Life as we have known it may change significantly in the days ahead, as the rhetoric is increasing, not diminishing. Acrimony from our side is now bubbling up. Our kid gloves are slowly being removed. The question is, how does society, in the manner we are accustomed to living, prepare for civil war?
