More than 40% of Americans believe a civil war is LIKELY within the next 10 years

More than two-fifths of Americans believe civil war is at least somewhat likely in the next 10 years, according to a new survey – a figure that increases to more than half among self-identified “strong Republicans”.

Most experts believe a full-scale armed conflict, like the American civil war of 1861-65, remains unlikely.
