The polarization of opinions exhibited in the United States against the backdrop of the presidential elections, according to American media, might lead to civil war.
“When democracy, the pinnacle of freedoms that Americans hold dear, is at stake, it may be a signal of widespread conflict,” the authors of the research wrote.
Although conflicts between presidential candidates are usual, the conflict between former President Donald Trump and current Vice President Joe Biden is producing unprecedented tension in the United States. According to reports, following a string of criminal charges brought against the former president, he is publicly threatening his major competitor Biden, with whom he is deadlocked in the polls.
Thus, the website “19FortyFive” highlights in its report that the violent conflict between Republicans and Democrats, as represented by Trump and Biden, has driven the United States to the brink of civil war.
