    Calm down there man. I am not a right winger, and apparently I mistakenly took your comment out of context. The overwhelmingly majority of the time online that I see someone saying the military is one sided, they are referring to it being for the right. The structure of your sentence makes it sound like a caution or possibly a threat that the military will back the right. Based on the downvotes you’re getting, I apparently am not the only taking it this way.

    I absolutely agree a civil war would be devastating, but I don’t see it happening. My take is once Trump is convicted the media will finally feel they have the freedom to make their separation they’ve been saying they wanted to do in private for years, but have been too scared to make.

    I am a gun owning liberal who is against the NRA.

      All good, sorry for the hostility, anytime I try and speak logic in political threads I end up getting called a Nazi or right wing or something. I don’t see trump getting convicted. As much as the dem elites hate him, he’s still part of the elite club and they can’t be prosecuting their own.
