USA Must Divide Into 2 Seperate Countries

There simply is no room at all in red state America for Democrats. There can be no compromise. We have had enough. Democrats have GOT TO GO, and the sooner the better. The US map must change, with red states being one country. Blue states being another. Then, no more friction. No more...

I'm sure there are politicians in every jurisdiction everywhere who'd like to secede simply for not getting their way, but 99.9% never go anywhere.

I guess the old saying of "Death to Lawyers" may be..... Well, I ain't going to say it because some fruitcake may decide that I am God and I told him to do it.

Didn't he call Republicans on 1/6 'insurrectionists' recently?

And didn't he flee to Cancun during the Texas snowstorm of 2021?

Shut the hell up Ted

Things are already hapless, could hopeless be far behind?

Has nothing to do with race, and many of us are ready.

Democrats started the division. They will not finish it though.

If we re elect Biden things are hopeless. If we elect Kamala, things are worse than hopeless.

And what then? Will Ted Cruz - the Canadian emperor from Mexico over Texas - continue his war against Germany and attack us during the next natural catastrophe in Texas?

Secession would be one hell of a lot better choice than an ongoing orgy of internecine violence. Only fools think they can depend on the American military to crush and enslave 100 million of their neighbors. Unfortunately, I think there's a growing number on the Left who believe precisely that.

So we're already seceding?

Let's do this. **** you other assholes, we out!!!

There won't be any Federal $ they depend on.

Cancun Ted has a lot of fence-mending to do with the rube base, so we can probably expect some pretty hairy shit from him going forward.

In Texas p1/3 of the state's revenue comes from the federal government. 1/5 of the Texas economy comes from all the US military bases in the state. Go ahead and secede, hope you like living in poverty. Your economy would be in for a big collapse. There would be a mass Exodus of people from the state.

I'm guessing (who can say, of course) that with the prohibitive secession requirements, what we'll more likely see is a situation in which the states are far more different in their individual laws and environments.

So for example, simply going from State A to State B, we'll want to know if that state is red, blue or purple. We'll want to be familiar with the political character of that state. Possibly even more pronounced than moving from country to country in Europe.

Obviously not what the Founders envisioned, but we've clearly failed them.
