(The Center Square) – Political tensions have ramped up year after year, and now nearly half the country thinks a civil war could happen in the U.S. in the next decade.
Newly released polling data from YouGov and The Economist show that “two in five Americans believe a civil war is at least somewhat likely in the next decade.”
Only 35% of those surveyed said it was not likely or not “very likely.”
“What is the likelihood that political violence will culminate in a civil war in the U.S.? While only 14% of Americans say a civil war is very likely in the next decade, 43% say it is at least somewhat likely,” YouGov said. “About one in three – 35% – say it is not very or at all likely, and 22% are unsure. People who say they are ‘strong Republicans’ are the political group most likely to anticipate a civil war: 21% say it’s very likely, compared to less than 15% of each of the other four political groups studied.”
According to the poll, Americans don’t expect the situation to improve.
“Two-thirds of Americans (66%) believe that political divisions in this country have gotten worse since the beginning of 2021, compared to only 8% who say the country has grown less divided,” YouGov said. “Few see things improving in the coming years: 62% expect an increase in political divisions.”
They also expect an increase in political violence.
“A similar share (63%) to the proportion who say political divisions have worsened (66%) say political violence has increased since the start of 2021,” YouGov said. “Three in five Americans (60%) anticipate an increase in political violence in the next few years and only 9% expect political violence to decline.”
The FBI raid of former president Donald Trump is the latest incident to weaken confidence in national institutions.
Rasmussen Reports released polling data earlier this month that reported that 44% of surveyed Americans say the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago made them trust the FBI less.
“Last week’s raid by the Federal Bureau of Investigation on former President Donald Trump’s home has damaged the FBI’s standing with Republican and independent voters,” Rasmussen said, as The Center Square previously reported. “A new national telephone and online survey by Rasmussen Reports finds that 44% of Likely U.S. voters say the FBI raid on Trump’s Florida home made them trust the FBI less, compared to 29% who say it made them trust the bureau more. Twenty-three percent (23%) say the Trump raid did not make much difference in their trust of the FBI.”
If We the People DO NOT destroy treasonous, destructive, unethical, dishonest, socialist Democrat Party, We the People will be serving this treasonous, destructive, unethical, dishonest, socialist Democrat Party as servants, slaves, subjects and wards very shortly.
Look at the evidence – treasonous, destructive, unethical, dishonest, socialist Democrat Party has turned the FBI into their own corrupt political police gestapo, they are hiring 87,000 more deadly IRS agents, The want to hire 100,000 police officers, calling on Congress to appropriate $10.77 billion in funding over five years for the COPS Hiring Program. Thus giving the Federal Government more control over local policies and police. The Democrat Party has turned the justice department into their own political agenda enforcement department to destroy all who do not bow down to them.
The “Socialist Democrat Party State” political officers, Gestapo, Woke and Cancel Culture are just getting started.
You will obey, be loyal and support the policies of the “Socialist Democrat Party State” or you will be classified as “Enemies of the State” and “Domestic Terrorists”.
24 Aug. 2020 – Monday on MSNBC’s “Live,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)
referred to President Donald Trump and his Republican supporters as
“domestic enemies” and “enemies of the State”.
Biden said “That MAGA symbol has come to represent something. It is the new Nazi symbol.” … “It’s a dime-store front for a terrorist movement.” … “There are elements of the GOP that are starting to look like the jihadists.” … “They’re a white nationalist movement. They’re a fascist threat to our nation.”
And it doesn’t help matters that President Biden, who ran on a unity message, sneers when he describes Trump supporters as “ultra-MAGA” and “semi-fascist.”
A house divided against itself, cannot stand.”
I believe this government cannot endure permanently half slave and half free.
I do not expect the Union to be dissolved — I do not expect the house to fall — but I do expect it will cease to be divided.
It will become all one thing or all the other.” – Abe Lincoln
Just substitute “Cannot endure permanently Half secular Socialist and Half American Republican” and you have the current state of affairs in this country. There is no way the weak people of social dependency and redistribution of American wealth can honestly prevail over the strong productive people with the ability of SELF-governing, without some bold betrayal at the highest levels of elections and government or media subversion that seeks to sustain the socialism in lies. The longer the people of peace and prosperity sit on their hands while the people of confrontation and division are allowed free reign to reign over us, the greater will be the coming bloodshed in the coming American rebellion. Time for peaceful Constitutional solutions is running short, because of the rapid deterioration of our very Constitutional protections that used to keep us safe from all harm. Another bold attempt to dishonestly steal the fall elections either through media misleading’s or violent street demonstrations will lead to a larger violent confrontation that will lead us to the downfall of one or the other. Nature usually picks the strong.
AND ITS all because of the actions THE LEFT HAS TAKEN over the past decade and a half…
Brandon has exceeded Jug Ears in hate and divisiveness… not an easy accomplishment.
The biggest question of all is, Who is the puppet master of Jug Ears? We already know that J.E. is the puppet master of Brandon ! If you have been paying attention.
JUG ears is probably the one CONTROLING biden.
Civil War, because of the systematic destruction of our society, by the communist Democrats. The total toxic filth of communism. I would rather be dead than live in a communist society. Our freedoms are evaporating at warp speed. How sad!
IT sounds heartless as hell, but if we DO have to do a 2nd civil war. WE MUST NOT WIMP OUT and pardon a single leftist that survives it.
All this thanks to the Hater in Chief who can’t keep his foot out of his mouth! Donald Trump was disliked because he was a threat to the powers that feel they have the right to rule the country, he beat them on ideas and went after the media because they were the agents of hate for the Democrats and neverTrumpers. They were also the stooges of the entrenched bureaucracy. With the FBI and IRS armed like mafioso acting as a Stalinist era secret police force, read ‘The Gulag Archepeligo’, one should be concerned about WHO IS NEXT!
After Charlottesville, Trump said there was good people on both sides. Trump was trying his best not to divide the country. But Biden is just the Opposite. He even looked and his speech sounded like hitler.
