The views besides differed due to political affiliation:
48% of Democrats, 39% of independent and 32% of Republicans stated that civilian war was at least to any degree likely.
While respondents were more or little divided about the likelihood of civilian war, just over 20% were unsure or refused to answer.Data besides suggested racial imbalances.
Among white respondents 10% stated that civilian war is ‘very likely’, compared to 18% of black respondents.
Hispanics were least inclined to reject the thought completely, with only 11% stating that conflict is ‘at all unlikely’, While 15% considered him "very likely."Early that month, riots broke out in California in consequence to national immigration enforcement efforts.

Organizers described protests as opposition to "authoritarianism, a policy that puts billionaires first and militarization of our democracy".Meanwhile, any Republican allies have warned that Trump is losing his support for leaving his platform ‘America First’, especially with the support of Israeli attacks on Iranian atomic facilities.
