So something I’ve picked up on lately listening to people online and around my town. People are genuinely beginning to consider the prospect of civil war after Trump mentioned it the other. What’s odd is that on the surface everyone acts like it won’t ever happened, but interestingly, in private people are contemplating it. I’d say this is honestly the closest since 1865, maybe 1960, that the country is at danger of splitting apart (which I’d be fine with low key). As I keep saying every week, there are only interesting times ahead here in America. We’re just about 1 year out from elections, and this will not be a year forgotten by American history, that is the only certainty.

There isn't gonna be a civil war. At least not because of Trump and his fans. 

I don’t think there will be one, but it is strange that many people seem okay to have one :mumble:. As I said the next year will be a defining moment in my countries history.

Next defense step for Trump's America is to learn the alligators to climb the electrified fence and meet the invaders at half-way! :banana:

 

Can they make a movie out of this?

They already did, I believe a bio-pic called “Dumb and Dumber” was about Trump’s presidency :p

    • Someone please tell me every single athlete who didn't qualify for the big air final has at least one more event to go? The chance of athletes' Olympics being done before the opening ceremony would be utterly ridiculous...
    • Don't know what they were saying to each other, but one thing on time management is that there is never any debate in : they just instantly agree with what the other is planning to do.
