At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.

Not everyone who supports/supported Trump is a domestic terrorist. The Capitol storming was totally an insurrection, though.

None of the above. The largest threat to the USA and it's allies, is the USA itself. We've seen this happening during the past administration more than enough.

How many? The criminals who stormed the Capitol cannot represent all Trump supporters and ex-Trump supporters.

No but they are going to likely be our largest source of actual domestic terrorism in these coming years.

The Vatican, but since that's not on the poll I spun a wheel and it landed on Iran and I have to agree that it was also my instinct when I saw the poll. Russia has their own problems or now, China has never been aggressive 2ward foreign powers outside their quad and I don't buy it that they will soon, it makes me laugh that people here pretend to feel threatened by Israel so it's the second most popular option. #firstworldproblems

The Vatican? I am curious about your take on this.

I still think the CCP is a huge threat, but I agree with you that Israel is not a problem.

5 internal threats.

1.Right-wing populism.
2.Decreasing acceptance of pluralism.
3.Income inequality.
4.Nihilism with political institutions.
5.Incompetent government.

5 external threats.

1.China
2.Russia
3.Iran
4.North Korea.
5. I can't think of one, America has it too good geographically.

Corrupt Government Officials, continued 'free' trade with China, and a subverted corporate apparatus.

When over half of registered Republican Party voters claim they supported the attempted coup, I think they very well do.
