When the full extent of your venality, moral turpitude, and political corruption becomes known, you will take your rightful place as a disgraced demagogue in the dustbin of history. You may scapegoat Andy McCabe, but you will not destroy America...America will triumph over you.

Barry R McCaffrey @mccaffreyr3
Reluctantly I have concluded that President Trump is a serious threat to US national security. He is refusing to protect vital US interests from active Russian attacks. It is apparent that he is for some unknown reason under the sway of Mr Putin.

Hour Two
Friday 23 March 2018 / Hour 2, Block A: Michael E Vlahos, Johns Hopkins, in re: Barry McCaffrey, retired four-star Army general, astoundingly tweeted: “Reluctantly I have concluded that President Trump is a serious threat to US national security. He is refusing to protect vital US interests from active Russian attacks.” See: Seven Days in May film. This is part of the coup by what’s darkly styled as the deep state – elites interested above all in their own power — which Trump does, indeed, threaten. Driven not by ideology but by the threat that populism can represent to the elite. Coups d’etat fail more often than succeed.

Exceptional vituperation. Hostile Congress; [upper ranks of] military filled with Obama supporters; and the president is disconnected from DC power brokers, so doesn't hear relevant data and rumors. A restive and profoundly unhappy population. Hostile adversaries eager to do theatrical gunplay. Springtime. And we have a volunteer as coup leader: John Brennan.

The Spanish civil war, the bloodiest in the Twentieth Century, was preceded by four or five coup attempts.

Friday 23 March 2018 / Hour 2, Block B: Michael E Vlahos, Johns Hopkins, in re: Seven Days in May novel. In 2018, Brennan and McCaffrey suggest there’s a crisis at hand that can be solved by removing the president. Richard Haas: “Trump is not now set for war on three fronts – Mueller (legal), Peter Navarro (economic), and Bolton (military).” . . . There’s a large faction who believe that the case is ironclad against Trump, allowing them to do extraordinary interventions, Puzzle: How to do this in a Constitutional way?

How can you overthrow a regime without precipitating a civil war? Trump opponents haven't thought of this. However, such a coup would much embolden our adversaries, who will be glad to step in to create mass chaos and [destroy the nation].

McCaffrey is an idiot, he was one while he was on active duty as well and obviously nothing has changed.

This recent segment and the two civil war segments linked in the OP are very good at describing the problems we are facing. As another poster on the other thread commented, they are short on solutions.
Sometimes describing and understanding a problem is vital before seeking a solution.
