Sarah Palin’s Fiery Warning
Former Vice-Presidential nominee Sarah Palin has ruffled feathers by predicting a potential civil war in the U.S. in light of former President Donald Trump’s recent arrest in Georgia.
Firestorm on Newsmax
Palin, a strong supporter of Trump and once the Governor of Alaska, did not mince her words during a fiery exchange on Newsmax Thursday night.
Trump’s Arrest
The arrest marks the fourth time this year Trump has been indicted.
Trump’s Ongoing Legal Battles
This particular charge stems from allegations of felony racketeering related to his alleged attempts to overturn Georgia’s 2020 presidential election results.
Newsmax Host’s Concern
Eric Bolling, the Newsmax host, posed the question many Americans were pondering, “When you see the former president being fingerprinted, having to show up, turn himself in, you see the mugshots of the other seven or eight who’ve turned themselves already, do you have concern for the country as I do?”
Palin’s Fiery Reaction to Trump’s Arrest
Palin’s response was nothing short of explosive: “Absolutely, I mean – I think those who are conducting this travesty and creating this two-tiered system of justice, and I want to ask them, ‘What the heck? Do you want us to be in Civil War?’ because that’s what’s going to happen. We’re not going to keep putting up with this.”
Palin’s Call for Action
She commended Bolling for suggesting that Americans ought to get angry, emphasizing that it’s time for citizens to “rise up and take our country back.”
RNC Under Fire
Her indictment wasn’t solely against the prosecution of Trump. She targeted the Republican National Committee (RNC), saying, “I would say the RNC though, that’s what’s lacking when it comes to collective anger that can be healthy and it can be useful.”
Palin’s Accusations Against the GOP Establishment
She added, “They hold the funds that could be helping out in this situation, they have the platform, and yet they’re too timid.” She went on to label them as RINOs – “Republicans in Name Only.”
Deepening Political Divide
This outburst from Palin comes at a time when America’s political divide is evident and deepening.
It Mirrors the Sentiments of Many Trump Loyalists
Her warning mirrors the sentiments of many Trump loyalists who view the constant legal challenges faced by the former president as an orchestrated witch hunt.
Echoes of Civil War
Palin isn’t the first right-wing figure to float the idea of a civil war this week.

Trump Reminisced About the January 6 Riot
Rather than directly addressing the question, Trump reminisced about the January 6 riot.
“Tremendous Passion and Love”
Referring to the participants, he mentioned the “tremendous passion and love” they had, contrasting it with their “hatred for what’s been done to our country.”
Stirring the Pot
Trump’s response, while not direct, was heavy with implications, underscoring the deep-rooted anger and disillusionment among a significant portion of the American populace.
The Implications of Palin’s Predictions
While it remains uncertain how the nation will process or react to such high-tension commentary from influential figures, in a country that’s already politically polarized, such comments from prominent political figures have the potential to fan the flames of division.
Palin’s Vision Highlights a Volatile Reality
