1. I think they are trying to evade prison

Hope they have a good exit strategy 'cause the Trump regime in collapsing in on itself.

Civil war? In their dreams.

6. yes,

prezidents bannon and miller especially, with advice from david duke and alec jones. Boy-potus is front man of the terrible triumvirate of he, bannon and miller. They are all white racists with a virulent hatred and FEAR of all people black and brown and other than white, male-female, KKKristians.

This chance probably has them all orgasmic in their opportunity, at this time in ameriKKKan history, to turn their hateful fantasies into reality by putting those independent women back into the kitchen, black and brown americans "back in their place" and all 'fureners' back to their countries. And ryan and mcconnell and most of the RW teahadists and racists, interchangeable, want the same things they want, they are just a little more sophisticated enough not to be so open about it. They hate also.

The 2nd Civil War HAS already started Nov 8, 2017. The first shots of the 2nd Fort Sumpter, 21st century. What is clear to me is ameriKKKa has never evolved from its slavery past, and with the millions of racists that voted for this 2nd Civil War administration, are trying to win this time.

I am truly sick of the hate, but will respond in kind. Fuck a republiKKKan, the new Confederates. Blue vs Red this time.

7. It doesn't seem likely.

As rotten as those two may be, they both seem more self-interested than anything. Civil War is too high-risk and unpredictable for them. Their side might lose, in which case things would go very, very badly for them. Given the disruption and damage that would do to the domestic and global economies, they couldn't be sure that they would come out ahead, even if their side did win.

Bannon may want war, with someone. China? The Middle East? Maybe. But here at home, where he lives, where he relies on a stable(-ish) economy to keep funneling Seinfeld profits into his accounts? Seems unlikely. He's not a self-destructive nihilist. He wants to tear down and disrupt in order to improve his own power, wealth, and status. Disaster Capitalism stuff, not a desire to actually destroy the world.

Trump doesn't seem to have any real, consistent worldview, aside from self-glorification. He does want to promote himself. He doesn't want to destroy himself, his fortune, his reputation, his children's futures. I don't think he wants history to associate the Trump name unambiguously with the destruction of the United States. He wants to be remembered as accomplishing big things and impressing the world.

So I guess I think they're both to sane to go in for this sort of thing.

8. Bannon, probably; Trump, probably not.

A civil war is bad for business, and Trump is all about the money.

9. Sadly, I don't see how we avoid it at this point. n/t

10. The right wing loons have been trying to do that for decades.

If you look around, we're the most divided we've been since the Civil War. The ultra far right wants us gone, dead because that's what the fearmongers who own AM hate radio have told them what to think. They utterly despise us. If doesn't happen now, it's a powder keg waiting to go off.
