Civil war in the US: Trump "blows up" midterm elections – Taylor-Greene: President is "not of sound mind"

America finds itself on the brink of an unprecedented internal crisis with all the elements of a developing... "civil war," as President Donald Trump opens a new domestic front while the nation's armed forces carry out Operation "Epic Fury" in Iran. Beyond the Democrats, who are incensed by the American president's policies, a faction of Republicans—including formerly staunch supporters and advisors like Marjorie Taylor-Greene—are now openly questioning his logic and mental state.

Russian political analyst Georgiy Bovt warns that Trump's maneuvers resemble the beginning of a "small civil war." The catalyst for these remarks was Trump's recent intervention on the Truth Social platform, where he demanded immediate and radical reform of electoral legislation. Trump is pushing for the passage of the "SAVE America Act," a bill seeking to overturn the established norms of American elections.

The three points "setting fire" to the US

There are three specific points inflaming the political landscape ahead of the midterm elections on November 3.

• Mandatory proof of citizenship: Trump demands that all voters present a passport or birth certificate to register, a move analysts say could exclude millions of Americans who lack immediate access to such documents.

• Abolition of mail-in voting: The 47th president seeks a total ban on voting by mail (with minimal exceptions for military personnel and the disabled), claiming the system is "rigged and stolen."

• Mandatory Voter ID: The imposition of strict identification rules at a federal level, bypassing the specific procedures each state currently uses to conduct elections. "It seems 'old friend' Donald isn't satisfied with the war against Iran; he wants to start a small civil war at home too," Bovt commented, emphasizing that Trump is attempting to "blow up" state electoral processes.

Prayers and division

While Democrats and human rights organizations accuse Trump of attempting voter suppression ahead of the 2026 midterms, his base remains solidified. Notably, a group of pastors recently held a collective prayer for Trump, seeking "divine intervention" to protect the president and the country. The situation in the US is described as explosive, as military involvement in Iran—which already counts American casualties and thousands of Iranian dead—is coupled with an aggressive domestic agenda threatening to split the nation in two.

Former Trump advisors question his logic after Iran attack – Terror over "nothing to lose"

Nervousness within the American elite is rising rapidly, shattering the image of unity previously displayed by Republicans. In a move that caused shockwaves, Marjorie Taylor-Greene, known for her hitherto unwavering support for Donald Trump, publicly questioned whether the leader she fought for is of sound mind. While the official trigger for her statement was Trump's decision to attack Iran, the substance of her intervention touches on much deeper issues.

Taylor-Greene cited a recent statement by Trump himself, in which he reportedly admitted he "won't go to heaven," leading to a logical yet terrifying conclusion: If a man at the end of his life admits he has nothing to lose in eternity and no longer cares about his popularity in the here and now, what is to stop him from sending Americans into another catastrophic war?

The betrayal of promises and the silence of Vance

Essentially, Taylor-Greene publicly voiced what many are whispering behind the scenes: The Trump of 2025 is no longer the candidate who promised to extricate the United States from foreign adventures. His campaign pledges of "no more wars" and "no regime changes," which Vice President JD Vance also echoed, now appear to be blatant lies.

JD Vance, for his part, maintains a wall of silence, presumably because he is unsure which comment would be deemed appropriate. While Trump initially took fire only from Democratic opponents, it is now his formerly ardent supporters questioning his mental health. Trump's transformation from an isolationist to a war "hawk" has left his followers reeling and terrified by the absolute unpredictability of his actions. The issue here is not merely a medical concern for the president, but a raw fear of a leader acting without moral or political restraint.
