The more I think about it, the more I realize that it’s possible that if — God forbid — there is a Second American Civil War, it won’t be about secession, but rather who the president is. I’m thinking in the context of, say, Trump somehow stealing the election outright and Blue states getting really upset about that in a way that causes him to send in the troops.
Or something like that.
But, I must admit, given the context, that if it’s Reds who refuse to accept that Harris is president, I just can’t see states like Texas being placated by “fighting from within.” Maybe the crisis would start off as a “recognition” crisis, but it would ultimately slide into a secession crisis.
