If Trump's #CivilWar2 happens, we've got plenty of people offering to bring salads

Donald Trump apparently believes that his removal from office could hurt America as badly as the Civil War.

On Sunday night, the president tweeted a very long quote that Southern Baptist Pastor Robert Jeffress said during an interview with Fox and Friends.

“If the Democrats are successful in removing the President from office (which they will never be), it will cause a Civil War like fracture in this Nation from which our Country will never heal,” Trump tweeted, adding his own parenthetical to the direct quote.

By morning, #CivilWar2 was trending, and as more and more people woke up to discover that the president had compared his own potential impeachment to a violent war things felt pretty chaotic.

As always, though, a group of Twitter users decided to make light of the bizarrely unfunny situation by using the hashtag #CivilWarSignup to offer valuable war-related services — such as tweeting and potato salad-making.

Within hours, #CivilWarSignup began to trend, and now Trump has a bunch of volunteers should America be thrust into a Civil War Sequel-type scenario.

While dress code for the war remains unclear, we do know that there will be several side dishes and comfort animals present.

Now that we've fantasized about a lovely war-free picnic, just a reminder that the president tweeting about a hypothetical war is not good or normal.
