Does anyone here believe in the possibility of an amicable divorce?

I believe traditional God-fearing American Conservatives would be OK with it. Would the Left oppose it, and be willing to go to war over it?

Why would the Left want to continue co-existing with people they consider to be ideological enemies?

I’m down. Why force one group to live by the mores of another?

A divorce is not possible

How would you divide up a state like Texas?

It is highly unlikely but I would love to live in a country with no Democrats.

Considering how many states the Dems run the red states would find themselves pretty freaking hungry in little time.

Meanwhile the dem states would impose so many restrictions that they’d also starve.

China smiles at the prospects of a divorce.

There will be no divorce but there will be bloodshed. It's just a matter of time

We don't have an amicable divorce system.

Our divorce system is to kill the spouse. That's what happened in the 1860s.

You don't. Hell, you would have to divide a simple state like Louisiana into three parts. People wanting a divorce will be surprised at how it turns out.

America the balkanized!!!

It’s blue. The dems get it and all of the resources that come with it. There was a time when it was argued that the nation was red based on county/parish maps. Perhaps that could be looked at. But after last Tuesday the Dems might be solidly ahead there too. I haven’t bothered to look it up.

A true separation of the country would be next to impossible at this point, interstate commerce and defense and economies are too intertwined to untangle without destroying both sides

The more effective solution would be totally rolling back our government powers and functions to what the framers established and intended, and give the majority of power back to the states. No split would be required

its been coming

actually it came sooner than I thought which was 2030
After patrick and abbott and others retired, it's better that they got beat because it gives Republicans a chance to offer an alternative to them and still be conservative, and could win

I don’t think Texas is blue either. I won’t seriously consider that until 2028. That’s when we’ll find out if the change is permanent or not.

I’m looking at this topic like a game of Risk and if you have a blue governor that state goes to the Dems. The dems run it for now so they get Texas on the game board.

There’s no practical way to do it, and the more tech dependent we become, the more unlikely. Things like insurance, banking, investments, finance, etc make it impossible.

They won’t allow us to leave. We tired once before.

People could realize we are supposed to be a republic with limited federal government, and thus nobody should have the power to rule over each other in the first place.

Balkanization is the only way forward.

We tried that once. We should try it again.
