Make me seriously consider how close to a civil war we may be in the US?

"'Broken arrow' is arguably the most chilling and desperate order that an American military commander can issue. When faced with an enemy about to overrun a surrounded force, a commander uses it to call in an air or artillery strike on his own position.

This month, many on the American left are issuing their own “broken arrow” signals, including calling on globalist allies to hit the U.S. with sanctions and other measures. They are seeking to achieve through sanctions what they could not achieve through elections."

This just goes to show how utterly delusional and desperate the American political left has become. They have absolutely no solutions, just a bunch of hate and fear mongering.

The far left in the DNC keep misreading their constituents, who are telling them to give up ICE violence, MS13 and dudes in chick sports. 

 

They're calling for even more violence and insanity, thinking they're losing because they haven't been crazy enough.

 

 

They just might get a responce from lefty/socialist/globalist europe.

A typical response by the left, this has been the standard demand by ANTIFA in Germany for decades "Bomber Harris do it again".

 

Same old, same old.

 

The left would rather see death and destruction than lose.

Chat....tell me how many years old people, afraid they will miss out on good things, preach about gloom and doom as they FOMO on amazing decades.  Chat, tell me what years old people tell us every country is doomed, civil war will happen, housing prices will crash, markets will crash and the world will end.    Chat, list the years when old people are certain the universe is doomed and they predicted it during a period where they are no longer productive to society.   Chat, also include dates when we will see the End of Days, Apocalypse, complete and utter destruction, countries losing everything, leaders banished, and online gurus wise enough to see all of this; however, the gurus are always wrong.  Chat, list every year when 100% guru predictions are 100% wrong.

Current situation IMHO means it will only get worse as the courts and Congress continue to bow to the administration.  As the BBB takes root and begins to affect the poorest citizens, hard to imagine what might come about.  As an American with family and friends still within the states, I do worry about them but realize too that we common folks are all hamstrung right now!  I do wish only the best for our nation!

Let us not mince words. The United States has, in a remarkably short time, done serious if not terminal damage to itself. It has dismantled any pretence of social welfare or health care provision, it's bizarre trade policies, driven by one man's obsession with tariff driven protectionism and his total ignorance of trade matters is ruining swathes of its economies, his racially obsessed immigration policies are doing equal damage to agriculture and many cities. The rule of law simply does not operate in some areas, not due to criminality but due to the neofascist actions of its executive branch. It has abandoned the concept of three equal branches of government it's congress is neutered and its courts and existing laws ignored. The remaining (executive) branch is run by the extremely wealthy. The people simply don't matter anymore.

 

You are, as the vernacular might put It, Donald Ducked - and you have managed to do it by and to yourselves. "Liberal Europe" and "woke Canada" have had nothing to do with it. 

 

The USA is holed beneath the waterline, and I am not sure it can be saved. Not only driving full speed into the iceberg, but backing off and having another go!

Donald Ducked, love it  !

Totally agree. Plus America has now become the 'laughing stock' of the world.  In the next few years, if the USA becomes isolated from the the rest of the world, then this lunatic in power  will be to blame. How can American citizens can go along with this lunacy that is destroying the country.
