During the latest episode of MSNBC’s “The Cross Connection,” leftist journalist Elie Mystal claimed there wouldn’t need to be a hot civil war in this country because the Supreme Court would have already allowed for the “MAGA side” to install their “authoritarian takeover” through legal means.

Mystal’s hyperbolic statements occurred during a discussion between host Tiffany Cross and MSNBC contributors Jason Johnson and Sarah Kendzior about the likelihood of civil war in the United States between Republicans and Democrats.

Cross asked, “How likely is a civil war in this country? Because in ten years, I just wonder if the United States will still be united, ‘cause it’s not looking so likely, and what should we be considering when we are thinking about the lead up to whatever is going to happen?”

Johnson responded by assuring readers that this civil war talk was not just the MSNBC panel and other Democrats “being hyperbolic.” He claimed that a civil war is “something that is possible in the United States.”

MSNBC contributor Elie Mystal claims that SCOTUS will hand authoritarian takeover of U.S. to the “MAGA side.”

He continued, stating, “In 10, 12 years, heck, in four years, if we have a legislature in Georgia, or Iowa, or Nebraska, or something else like that that says, ‘we no longer recognize the validity of the Joe Biden administration.’ That is sort of a precursor for civil war.”

“It’s not as far-fetched as people think,” Johnson added.

Kendzior provided a different point, claiming the “criminal elite” in this country want “a situation akin to what happened to Yugoslavia, to the fall of Yugoslavia and the Balkan wars of the 1990s. That is the kind of chaos and exploitation of that chaos that they crave. And so it’s very important that American stand united.”
