The population of the whole nation was 31 million in 1860 and the war killed two percent of that, almost entirely young men.
This time it is the very government at war with itself, and so far the war is merely legalistic, the battles of lawyers - of which, one senses, we have far too many for our own good.
The Department of Justice in particular is at war with itself, one faction in it refusing to cooperate with the other, hiding documents, trafficking in political muck, kluging up the works with deceptions, and still at it in the yet-unresolved case of General Flynn, which should have been thrown out of court months ago based on obvious prosecutorial malice.
The New York Times, NBC News, and many other companies can't seem to give up on their mendacious retailing of obvious falsehoods, in league with rogue government agencies.
We know how John Brennan played it and how James Clapper and Jim Comey went along with it, and took it further and deeper, and where Rod Rosenstein and Andrew McCabe stepped in, and exactly how Mr. Mueller got roped in to front his operation - despite his mental incapacity.
We have heard very little from Mr. Obama in recent months, and only a few squawks out of Hillary.
A century and half from now, people in this land will say that coup against Mr. Trump was a valiant endeavor, just as people today will say that the Civil War of 1861 - 1865 was about some metaphysical truths above and beyond slavery.
