This
idea of breaking up the country may seem a bit outlandish now, but you
won’t think so once real domestic unrest comes to your town.
Divorce is hard, but it’s easier than cutting the brake lines on your wife’s car. It is long past time for an amicable divorce of the United States of America. There is simply no common ground with the Left anymore. We are now the couple screaming at each other all night, every night as the kids hide in their room.

His map sucks. We would be better off with 6-7 nations instead of the two he proposes. This map gets it right.

Agreed and it looks like Tarboro would be in the Tidewater and Cape Carteret in the Deep South, so I need to make adjustments. :)
DeleteA lot of people voted for Trump in all the states!!--even NY and CA. And that is in spite of massive media attention in the opposite direction. My brother is in CA and he voted for Trump.
ReplyDeleteMy brother is in CA and he voted for Trump.
DeleteMy four daughters who live there also voted for him.
Ya, he doesn’t have it even close to correct. He is ceding Montana and Idaho, Ummm NO. Look at the counties that voted for Hillary, and there you have your Socialist Amerika. Everything else stays as Patriotic Constitutional America.

DeleteDon't know how you could do that if they aren't together...?
No. Not even close. With the exception of Louisville and Lexington, Kentucky is solid red. --Ray
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteThe problem is that our differences and blood feuds are political, not geographic. That's the point behind gerrymandering, making the two match. So there are no new national or state boundaries. the divisions look more like the county-level red-blue maps with all one side in the major cities.

DeleteYup.

ReplyDeleteBreak it up.
Lincoln was wrong : A house divided ... is just a duplex.

Well said.
DeleteIt is a naive idea that we could or would vote to split up the country. I doubt it is legal and if it were legal I doubt it could be done without bloodshed.
ReplyDeleteBut it doesn't matter. Do you really think it will change the opposition and they will somehow be happy with half of what they believe is rightfully theirs?
I doubt it could be done without bloodshed.
DeleteYes there would be, no ifs, ands or buts.

That would be their problem as I could care less.
I live in Michigan, half this state supports Trump. Let 'em have downtown Detroit and the other enclaves on the east side of the state that vote communist.
ReplyDeleteThe cities have passed the point of no return.
DeleteAs much as I love your site--this is one stupid notion that will bring the nation to a halt and encourage invasions of all descriptions.
ReplyDeleteHahaha. 30 million non-Americans now living in America isn't an invasion? They are not assimilating. They aren't becoming "American". They are changing America into a third world nation in front of our eyes. How could we possible encourage invasions more than what we already have?

Agree 'cept for the implied 'moral equivalency' here:
ReplyDelete"We are now the couple screaming at each other all night, every night as the kids hide in their room."
Don't see a lot of 'screaming' from the side that just wants to be left the heck alone.
Truth crushed to the earth is truth still and like a seed will rise again.
