Could America ACTUALLY Collapse?

Farron Cousins explains why a second American civil war or violent revolution is unlikely, but also why the United States may be too politically, economically, and geographically divided to function as one truly cohesive nation forever.

We have a question that came in from Leto Danza who asks us, "Hi Farron, my question for you is this. I've been following US politics ever since Trump's first term and when Hadtie wanted me to subscribe and watched on in horror as your nation declines. The rest of the world is suffering as many ties as we can to prevent being dragged down with you. I fear for the future of the USA and I fear it may end in a revolution, civil war or separation of states into multiple different countries. Can any of these be prevented and how? But if not, which scenario would you reckon is likely to play out? [clears throat] I think a revolution is not not going to happen. Um, and I also think a civil war would not happen. With as strong as our military is, they're going to prevent any kind of revolution within a matter of minutes. You know, all of these hoarders out there who think I'm doomsday prepping and I got all my guns in case the government comes for me. The government's not going to send troops. Okay? Hey, all you militia types, they're not going to send troops out there to quell your uprising. They're going to send a drone, you know, 2,000 ft up in the air. Even your best bullets aren't going to be able to make it that high. And they're going to take you out from five miles away. Over, done. So, a revolution ain't going to happen. A civil war, I think, is also not likely to happen. um a little more likely obviously than a full-blown revolution, but there is still some cooperation between the states. You know, even the hardcore Republican states still do get along to a degree with the blue states. A lot of what you see is political posturing, right? Florida will be down here badmouthing New York. New York will be saying crap about Florida. That's actually all true, by the way. Um, but then at the end of the day, there is actually a lot of cooperation that takes place behind the scenes that nobody talks about. The media doesn't cover because it's not this, you know, horrible blow up and he said, she said, oh my god, they're at each other's throats.

Boring stuff doesn't make the news because it's boring. So, I don't see a civil war. And as a result of that, I also don't see a separation of the states into their own countries, even you know, blocks of countries or whatever. Um, I wouldn't be opposed to that though. The United States, and we're not the only country that is this way, by the way. The United States is too large and too diverse to be a single cohesive unit. And what I mean by diverse, I don't mean ah we've got too many different kinds of people. I mean just the environment. Okay, we have so many different types of landscapes. We have so many different areas of the country where different industries are dominant that we we have nothing in common with each other. You know, those of us down here in the touristri Florida don't have anything in common really uh with the folks out there in the Rocky Mountains. Okay. Just vastly different worlds and yet we're all governed by the same set of laws. And I guess yeah it makes sense but at the same time it also doesn't quite make sense because we have different needs. We have different wants and it's difficult for one centralized government to take care of so many different and diverse regions and it would be easier and everybody I think could get a better you know lot in life if we were a bunch of separate countries. Um, do I think that'll ever happen? Probably not. But I I really would not be opposed to it. Uh, I I I think that could actually work out to our benefit over
