Pretty much nil without a deep economic crisis or military humiliation, either of which is unlikely in the next decade.

the next CW won’t be about money or pride; it will be about principle. IMO

How about a deep constitutional crisis , like evidence of widespread democrat vote fraud overturning the people's will?

As of today, that certainly seems to be going on to steal several elections. Should the rest of us just accept them stealing power and do nothing but whine to politicians that will do nothing?

Both of these pretty much happened in 2016, to the democrats. They lost an election they feel was owed to them, which was very humiliating. Then President Trump undid all of their economic policies, which sent the economy soaring. This, along with places like Venezuela collapsing, is a direct challenge to their economic beliefs.

Agreed, open Civil War is a non starter... You may have your harper’s ferry type of situation here and there, but flat out open conflict on a large scale? Not going to happen, at least anytime soon.

I agree to some extent, it should take something like this to trigger a civil war. However, the ongoing violence by the left may trigger it. It all depends on how much the right is willing to put up with at the hands of the violent left.

The left has rioted, intimidated, attacked and assaulted with impunity in most of the big cities without much a response by their leftist governments. When they finally encounter a city government that is not willing to tolerate their lawless behavior and responds in kind things will get interesting very quickly.

Twenty years ago in my small town the kkk goons decided to show up and march, they no support that I could tell in the community and a counter march was planned. The small city police department and state police kept the two sides apart and the kkk told the chief they would be back next month. The chief said fine, but we will not be here to protect you. Needless to say they didn’t return.

However, during their initial march I know many small business owners and citizens had armed themselves heavily and were not prepared to tolerate violence from either side. I know in my Dad’s case he had a riot shotgun, M1 carbine and several pistols at his business ready to go. To quote him I don’t care what your color is or your politics, you are not going to loot and burn my business down. Many owners took that same attitude.
