I could see the US breaking up along political lines, but that’s going to go a lot worse for most Red states than they think it is. It’s still pretty unlikely.
What’s likely going to happen is just more bitching and moaning and gerrymandering.
Let it break up. Once the reds separate, it won’t be US territory, and we can bomb them out of existence and re-take the land without those traitorous bastages.
We won’t have to. Nearly all, if not fully all “red states” receive more in federal funding than they pay in taxes. If they were to secede their econonomies would crash in short order. It would be like Brexit times 10.
That’s why it will never happen. Their politicians know this full well. They aren’t that stupid. Them saying otherwise is for their base to eat up.
This is the party of trump mtg beobert and Palin after all I wouldn’t bet on that.
Texas barely makes enough to keep from being a Republican welfare state. It’s the only one to do so, IIRC.
Texas can’t keep their own lights on, they’d be begging to rejoin the union after their first winter. At least, the survivors would be.
As long as they eat one another, I’m okay with this.
And any Democrats in Alabama, which is about a third of the population, I suppose you consider to just be collateral damage whose deaths are just a necessary cost?
You think they’d stay?
Uprooting your whole life and everything you’ve ever known can be really difficult, complicated, and expensive.
Not trying to defend piece of shit conservatives, but you underestimate the amount of US military firepower that red states have locked up in their armories (because land is cheaper for the Federal Gov to pay to shitty flyover red state governments for storage).
You also underestimate the level of firepower hick-jock rednecks maintain in their own personal supply in said red states.
Your proposal sounds stupid and encourages people to think we are each other’s enemies here in this online forum, when the reality is its simple ignorance and inflammatory politics that needs to be fought against.
Lock that fat orange piece of shit up, give people their bodily autonomy and freedom of choice, keep religion far away from politics, let people own guns without limits to protect minority communities from racist/sexist/genderist cops, and execute the politicians who encourage violence or partisanship with no mercy.
That doesn’t matter when more than 2/3rds of the US Military dislike Trump ( higher among officers & and that was when he was in power, that number has plummeted since.)
I’ll never forget why Stars & Stripes was shuttered.
You think a Bird from Wisconsin is going to turn a military base over to southern traitors? Hell no they aren’t. The Insurrection Act will be set off & they are going to start collecting fash politicians & putting down insurrectionists.
Totally disagree. There is a minority, but not insubstantial, amount of white supremacists / christo-fascist that we need to eradicate, in addition to cleaning up our politicians and judges. Disagree with you over guns, do agree cops need to be re-designed from the ground up to be a help to the citizenry and not a problem.
Honestly that won’t happen. But even if it did. Most of the US agriculture comes from red states.
The cost of food will skyrocket with tariffs.
Actually California makes over 11% of US ag output and rather a lot of that gets exported.
