For there to be a civil war, both sides need an army. The US president will have the US army, and the other side might as well have nerf guns. The civil war would last an afternoon.

If there's going to be anything, it's an increase in domestic terrorism.

Plus, who really wants to abandon modern living to die in some urban street combat?
