If the US were to fall to civil war, what would we be fighting over?

I see a lot of older folks saying one is coming, but I don't see any differences worth killing each other over. Tribalism between Democrats and Republicans is getting rather extreme, but I don't imagine them seeking to kill each other en masse over it.

When you break it down, it’s hard to pinpoint:
1) Immigration ? Most Trump supporters are immigrants’ descendants; some are actually immigrants themselves who came here legally, but don’t yet understand that Trumps’ concern is more [b]who[/b] than [b]how[/b].
2) Religion ? Most Christians and Trump at best see each other as a means to an end—there is nothing in Trump’s history to indicate he’s followed any particular religious creed in his dealings with people.
3) Abortion ? Trump has never really indicated that [b]that’s[/b] a hill he’s particularly willing to die on, either. At most, he’s commented on making it a “state’s rights” issue. Making abortion illegal again [b]won’t[/b] stop abortions—it’ll only stop safe ones. Women and girls may start dying again, and perhaps that’s acceptable “collateral damage” for the so-called “pro-life”.
