Actually, the answer is quite simple: America is in the midst of a civil war.

At present, it’s a cold war but it’s still a civil war.

It was begun by the Soviet Union in the 1930s with a "long march through the institutions." And it has, indeed, been a Long March: they are just now coming to their endgame.
