40% of GOP Voters Think Civil War Likely

 CBS News Eye on Trends: The latest from the Election & Survey Unit
 June 12, 2020

With race-driven anti-police protests nationwide, one-in-three voters continue to believe America is on the brink of another civil war. Blacks are the least optimistic that the protests will lead to positive change but the most supportive of removing Confederate symbols from public display.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 34% of Likely U.S. Voters think the United States will experience a second civil war sometime in the next five years, but that includes only nine percent (9%) who say it’s Very Likely. This compares to 31% and 11% respectively two years ago. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

  1. Margin of error 12 pts? That's like saying they are just making stuff up.

  2. Depends on sample size.

    I, alas, am of the YES I WILL HAPPEN camp.

    I don't want it to happen. I am perfectly willing to live with people who disagree with me. But that's the issue - they're not willing to do the same.

    When "coexist" and "unity" and other bilge mean I have to agree to gay marriage, and transgender children, and welfare, and and and, NO, I refuse.

  3. Supposedly, there are 800,000 signed-up to attend his upcoming
    rally whom the commies are trying to stop.
    You can't keep a good man down. Social distancing has nothing
    to do with the rally - hypocrites.

  4. Like Tucker stated on C-Span:

    System Media is notoriously de-radicalizing. Yet, despite this, conservative talking head Tucker Carlson says, “I don’t worship Capitalism I worship God like whatever I’m a Christian but, leaving this aside this is not a religion…but, if your system is making it impossible for my children to get married then I am totally happy to set your system on fire, and blow it up.”

    The most popular conservative talking head on System Media talking about destroying Capitalism if it harms his children. Americans have stepped over the specter of Capitalism. No one but the 1% want it anymore.
    He said when the upper middle class can't afford rent there is
    a problem. I hope Trump can reinstate the middle class who
    was always the backbone of the country.

      I'm not sure exactly what he is referring to...? The Obama era change where you get to keep more money if you're single v married?

    2. The outsourcing of jobs. The importation of immigrants to drive down wages. Stagnant wages while inflation runs rampant. A man used to be told "Be loyal to the company and the company will be loyal to you." Now he is told "Fxxx you, that's why" There are generations that will not have a better standard of living than their parents. Globalism and diversity are working to kill the American dream. We are borrowing money our kids and grandkids will have to pay back so we can police the world and ship billions in welfare to Israel. The guy working at Wal Mart, who used to have a decent factory job before the factory was shipped to China, is being taxed to support the Navy to "Keep the sea lanes open" so the Chinese can ship cheap goods to the US. I am 50 years old and this is not the same country I grew up in. It has slid down hill since the regime of Pappy Bush.

    3. @Chris:

      Agree totally… almost. ;)

      As a Zionist Jew I belive firmly that Israel needs to get off the American teat. Your comment is one reason why. Although Israel is required to spend most of that aid money IN AMERICA (so does it REALLY leave America?), I believe firmly that Israel - for its own interests, let alone ceasing to be a client state of America, needs to be weaned.

      But more broadly, you are correct. We are borrowing from our future and printing money like insanity to fund overseas wars and foreign governments that don't like us in general. Insane.

  5. Tucker also said the most violent Whites were exported out of
    the country to war zones. Is that by design to leave the
    passive ones behind. The short video where he says blowing it
    up:

    Have to go to C-Span for the much longer version.

    1. I assume he means that the most patriotic source of enlistees are Southerners who are known for their fighting ability.
