There might be a bit of violence, but if you think that Americans are going to all out war instead of just accepting the election results and whining about it on twitter then you're mistaken.

    Civil war would militarily weaken the USA, making the USA itself and its foreign interests vulnerable to outside aggression.
    This is something neoliberals, neocons, and the bourgeois especially would oppose.
    It seems plausible to me that heightened cold war anti-China and anti-Russia propaganda are intended for maintaining internal unity, and thus reduce chances of any revolution occurring.

      I still maintain the most plausible soon to occur revolution in the USA could be a bloodless secession of the West Coast; where the military becomes analogous to the hypothetical EU army.
      Conservatives would hate this. Some bourgeois might even be persuaded, in that it would drive right-wing states into even more extreme and exploitable pro-capitalist positions.
      It could create in the West Coast a new and comfortable imperial core; moving quickly towards protectionism and the Nordic model.
