@inlightadorned407 they are not cooling as the democrats in office are going to start doing some overreach making our economy worse. Along with that, now the left is ridiculing those on the right even more. Look at how no one considers what caused these people to storm capitol hill? What angers them? Or why they supported Trump to begin with? No on on the left. Instead they call them dangerous, misguided, stupid, etc. and tell them to submit to the left.
You say if a war starts it will be in the hands of the right when you are not considering what is angering them to begin with. That is where I am saying things are going to get worse if the left does not stop what they are doing. You say the left has their guy in office. Yeah, after impeachment attempts, calling Trump supporters racist and white supremacists, having people like Don Lemon say get rid of your conservative friends, months of rioting by BLM and antifa, and destroying people's by shutting down businesses and offering them no help. Along with that you had constant lies by the media. So sure, the left won by dirty tactics.
How is American democracy not functional? Compared to previous years. To give an example, look up the town hall discussion of 1994 between Clinton and Herman Cain discussing healthcare. When they did they both gave facts and data and their opinion. Now, these days, it is just people calling each names with the media giving deceptive stories. So based on the past, in the 90s of great times, it is not functional.
Trump coming back or not is irrelevant, he started something. He bullied back and now politicians on the right are going to start doing that. And it isn't about insults, it is that the right being silenced where their concerns are not heard for years. Some felt scared of losing their careers.
I don't want a civil war, but how can the republican party be rebuilt when they are constantly being ridiculed and dismissed by many institutions in this nation with a lot of power? Rebuild to what? Submitting to a group of people that, after years of calling them racists, bigots, anti immigrants, etc., now saying they want to unite?
Until the left starts to trying to understand their opponents and gain some sanity it is going to get worse.

@NeonNights80 via the media, academics, the entertainment industry, etc. The state houses you talk about are the fly over states that many hardly know exist. Consider how many people do not know there is a Kansas City, MO despite it having two major sport franchises.
The power lies in the spread of information. You have the media basically going as far as ridiculing those on the right. You have academics and members of entertainment shoving left wing ideas, mainly social ones, in people's faces while mocking those that oppose them. The issue is that those on the right and moderates have no platform to express their concerns, and when someone tries they get ridiculed and call names. You saw that with Trump. He said a lot of what is on people's minds and he was called a racist, bigot, white supremacist, etc.

@phxcppdvlazi if you want to call them left or liberals that is fine, they are still a group of bullies.
Here is a quote on Trump condemning white supremacy
On August 14
"As I said on Saturday, we condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry, and violence. It has no place in America.
And as I have said many times before: No matter the color of our skin, we all live under the same laws, we all salute the same great flag, and we are all made by the same almighty God. We must love each other, show affection for each other, and unite together in condemnation of hatred, bigotry, and violence. We must rediscover the bonds of love and loyalty that bring us together as Americans.
Racism is evil. And those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including the KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans."
And on August 15
"Reporter, Aug. 15, 2017: You said there was hatred, there was violence on both sides …
Trump: Well, I do think there’s blame – yes, I think there’s blame on both sides. You look at, you look at both sides. I think there’s blame on both sides, and I have no doubt about it, and you don’t have any doubt about it either. And, and, and, and if you reported it accurately, you would say.
Reporter: The neo-Nazis started this thing. They showed up in Charlottesville. …
Trump: Excuse me, they didn’t put themselves down as neo — and you had some very bad people in that group. But you also had people that were very fine people on both sides. You had people in that group – excuse me, excuse me. I saw the same pictures as you did. You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down, of to them, a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name. …
It’s fine, you’re changing history, you’re changing culture, and you had people – and I’m not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists, because they should be condemned totally – but you had many people in that group other than neo-Nazis and white nationalists, okay? And the press has treated them absolutely unfairly. Now, in the other group also, you had some fine people, but you also had troublemakers and you see them come with the black outfits and with the helmets and with the baseball bats – you had a lot of bad people in the other group too."
At this point I feel it will take Trump literally killing white supremacists himself to prove he condemns them, but then you guys will call him a law breaker and murderer.
There is no winning with you guys.

Cee Wil and that is where you are wrong. If you watch the whole speech he condemned white supremacy. He said this
"As I said on Saturday, we condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry, and violence. It has no place in America.
And as I have said many times before: No matter the color of our skin, we all live under the same laws, we all salute the same great flag, and we are all made by the same almighty God.

Racism is evil. And those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including the KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans."
In August 14. On August 15 he said
"Well, I do think there’s blame – yes, I think there’s blame on both sides. You look at, you look at both sides. I think there’s blame on both sides, and I have no doubt about it, and you don’t have any doubt about it either. And, and, and, and if you reported it accurately, you would say."
and
"Excuse me, they didn’t put themselves down as neo — and you had some very bad people in that group. But you also had people that were very fine people on both sides. You had people in that group – excuse me, excuse me. I saw the same pictures as you did.

He condemned white supremacy. His said there were fine people on both sides as there were people there who wanted to take down the statues that were good people who did not want to commit violence, and there were people who were there that wanted to keep the statues up that did not want to commit violence.
The ironic thing is that him saying that is a unifying statement. He is saying that a difference of opinion does not mean someone is bad. Meanwhile, you have Biden claiming that if BLM were to storm Capitol Hill they would have been treated worse which is a divisive statement in itself.
The Pentagon cannot remove the statues as it is a state issue.
You need to accept reality.

@nonenone6704 " The establishment, socially left but economically libertarian Democrats are buddy buddy with the tech companies, the banks, the media, and the government bureaucracies. They want to make as much profit and rob the America people as much as possible. Even if they are willing to ignore BLM riots, wave rainbow flags, and call for more diversity... as long as it does not threaten corporate power. While Bernie Sanders and the Juctice Democrats, right or wrong, keep pushing for leftwing economic polices, but keep getting shut down."
You are proving my point. You listed institutions controlled by the left. And you bring up Bernie and JD, they bent the knee to the establishments. So how are they any better?
I agree the republican party is not all great which is why Trump gained a following. The republican party was the party of Romney, Mr. Polite Guy that let people walk all over him. Trump came in with spine. He started by attacking republicans in the primaries, and then the whole system.
If there is another civil war I feel Trump supporters will win. They have more will power and others see them as a joke. .
