Republican President Donald Trump said on Sunday he was not joking about seeking a third presidential term, which is barred by the U.S. Constitution, but that it was too early to think about doing so.
Trump, who took office on January 20 for his second, non-consecutive White House term, has made vague allusions to seeking a third one but addressed it directly on Sunday in a telephone interview with NBC News.
“No, I’m not joking. I’m not joking,” Trump said, but “it is far too early to think about it.”
“There are, there are methods which you could do it, as you know,” he said. He declined to elaborate on any specific methods.
Didn’t need any foreign wars to trigger the first civil war.
The Civil war is not the historical comparison to make. This is significantly more similar to Italy under Mussolini or Germany under Hitler. There is no clear state divide and geographical boundary set like that today. There is absolutely no chance of a Civil War.
Look at the leaders of every blue state trying to find their position in the new fascist state we have. Gavin Newsom being the most obvious example.
They will allow the purge of what the fascist consider “undesirables” from their state as long as they keep their position in the ruling class safe.
There will be no civil war. The only war to be fought within America is a class war.
