Sure, so many are overly rabid Democrats or Republicans but even those people are smart enough not to send their cherished nation down the road to Civil War II, where they would have the "enjoyable" experience of watching their loved ones slaughtered by the other side: nothing quite like bringing Americans together, come hell or high water, by thinking about the distinct possibility of other Americans suddenly killing their family members. And make no mistake, in a bona fide civil war, each side goes for the other's men, women and children. Innocents pay the ultimate price in any such conflict.
The present presidential incumbent doesn't have the brains to change his rhetoric -- in fact, does he really give a damn if his actions lead to Civil War II, particularly given the fact that the sore loser has already said that he will cowardly leave the United States, with all his marbles, if he loses this election, which quite clearly he has. Trump is a big-lie propagator. He knows how well that tactic worked for Hitler, Stalin, Mao, etc. So, Trump is all about himself, safely nested far away from the fray should he provoke civil war in his supposedly beloved country.
But almost all Americans are both smarter and better than that. They're true and life-long patriots. They saw in 2000 Gore concede and then take it back -- only to accept the end result after the SCOTUS ruled on the vote in Florida. And everyone, pissed off or otherwise accepted it. You didn't see Clinton threatening not to leave the White House.
In short, Americans won't do what it takes to ignite the civil war fuse. They are too decent, principled and honorable for that. Too bad this president is nothing more than all about himself and his perks. Remember, that no American president has ever, ever, done what Trump is doing now.
Trump: it's the big-lie, right into the history books. He simply isn't capable of doing what's right, not for his supposed party, not for his country and not even for his God.
