    Lol, that’s is basically true-ish, but the counties, cultures, and infrastructure still got oblivioned … also the conflicts ran for so long … also2 domestically it would still count as a war & the president needs wartime excuses anyway.

      Oh, it would be devastating… But if Ho Chi Minh could do it, I think a nation with ~1.2 firearms per person could end up on top…

      Also, the military are still US citizens and many would refuse to turn their weapons on fellow citizens.

        Where would the fighting take place?

        Private homes? City blocks?
        You can just torch those.

        And can these people leave their homes/jobs without starving (and no foreign aid)?

        ICE and the police are also citizens and don’t seem to have much problem with it.
