    I honestly don’t think it’s likely, seeing as there’s also no real viable candidates for a breakaway army. Militia types and boogaloo boys don’t really equate to a well-formed, competent army in and of themselves, and there’s a distinct lack of crucial infrastructure one’d need to maintain a fighting force capable of going toe-to-toe with the US army within the country. I assume they wouldn’t just get to walk off with a bunch of military assets and equipment, either.

    On that note, we also haven’t seen any smaller regional conflicts that’d be a prelude to something happening at a national scale. (E.g. Bleeding Kansas)
