    It is this or bloody revolution and that would lead to the US being invaded by multiple other countries and shit getting worse and worse.

    No other nations are going to be invading the US, let alone multiple of them. They don’t have the logistics for it.

      Other nations wouldn’t invade. But in the event of a civil war, you can be certain they would be sending in plenty of heavy weaponry.

        The US has more military equipment and munitions than the next 5 ranked countries put together - why on earth would there be a need to send weapons ?

        Secondly who would be sending weapons ? Russia needs to finish their own war before they could send help to Trump (who will probably have the bulk of the reserves initially), China is unlikely to want to side with either faction, although I’m sure they’d be happy to sell “consumer” Mavic drones to both sides (a la Ukraine).

        The remaining western democracies have barely enough capacity to keep Ukraine afloat, although they would side with a pro-democracy anti-Trump faction if it garnered enough support to have a chance but with the massive stockpiles in the US being 100x what the rest of the west has it would be like pissing in the ocean.

        In the event of a civil war pro-democracy Americans need to bring military commanders on side so they can utilise existing US stocks - you have the biggest ammo and weapons dumps in the world.
