    Imagine starting or rallying towards a civil war

    … for some dumb, stupid, meaningless, ignorant, arrogant and self serving politician like Donald Trump.

      He’s not even a politician

      He’s a game show host who was informed his only chance of staying out of prison was to be elected president

      But then he committed more crimes, so even having been president will no longer cut it

        He’s not even a game show host. He’s a failed real estate mogul who inherited his wealth and then squandered it, bankrupting multiple businesses along the way.

          Not to mention a professional debtor who has probably borrowed more money than he’s ever made for himself.

            That is not fair he made that money…out of thin air by fraudulently misrepresenting the value of his buildings used as collateral for those loans.

      Counterpoint: it’s more like they are trying to use support for him as the excuse to start the civil war? But if not him, they would find some other “cause” for it.

      With arson, it is not enough simply to put out the immediate fire.
