The real downside for the rest of the world is without a doubt a second US civil war will result in minimum a few hundred nuclear weapons being detonated. Civil wars are one of the most brutal and nasty forms of warfare where some of the worst crimes against humanity regularly are played out.
Due to the nature of the US nuclear triad all sides of a second US civil war will end up with hundreds of nuclear warheads. Washington state has the US Navy nuclear weapons for the Pacific and Virginia state has the nuclear weapons for the Atlantic. States in the middle of the nation like Montana and the Dakotas have the ICBM nuclear weapons. California and Nebraska have large numbers of US Air Force nuclear weapons with the rest of the Air Force nuclear weapons being kept at dozens of US Air Force bases around the globe. All of the officially inactive but still functional nuclear warheads, numbering in the thousands, are stored in underground vaults at the PanTex facility in Texas.
hmm, it depends who takes D.C. honestly as iirc that's the only place you can launch america's supply
surely a nuclear bomb is a nuclear bomb, i cant imagine that it's completely impossible to make an alternate way to detonate them. i mean, they can be built in the first place, it's gotta be much easier to detonate them than to build them
I kind of hope, perhaps naively, that because the US military generally does take self-preservation and safety somewhat seriously, especially in terms of the big stuff like nuclear, that the actual steps to targeting US territory and then actually launching the nuke on US territory, would have several "I'm not launching the first nuke on US citizens" types to stand in the way. There's even already a historical precedent for refusing to launch nukes on US citizens. I'd like to think, in the case of internal political instability, most launch sites and non-national guard bases will focus on keeping civilians away and telling dumbass governors to fuck off.
