What does one do with folks when they represent some 20% of the country and they are dangerously delusional and threatening violence? What they are doing is a crime but I would not want to subject them to the Federal Penal System. Should we create Federal Reservations where they can be productive and in the company of their friends but not exposed to the violence of prison?

I think it's worse than that. They have utterly flipped about a dozen states into un-American enclaves.

The most blatant is California. Essentially California has been subject to ethnic cleansing. The white majority, which was a very conservative state that gave us President's Nixon and Reagan (ie: the Governor's office was the on-deck circle for Republican aspirants to the nations highest office) withing my adult lifetime has become a one party state. It's become a non-white majority state, with many non-citizen residents and an underlying (and not very far under) sense of racial hostility towards the dwindling white population.

It's become a poor state in the process.

It does not seem that the process can be reversed, but others think it can.

If it's not reversible then what we are really faced with is that the Dem claims to being close to a permanent majority are true. They only have to flip a few more States into perma-blue.

What States have gone from Blue to Red. Sure, a few Purple states fluxuate for a few elections.

Oregon and Washington were both proudly Purple states for decades. Oregon had a series of GOP Senators, so did Washington. Both are now pure-Blue, with nary a chance to elect GOPers.

Washington like California has replaced the party-primary system that we've had for 100 years with the jungle primary system that California has. It won't be long before we see elections just like the US Senate one in California where the only two names on the ballot are both Democrats.

I think a peaceful breakup, ala the dissolution of the USSR is the preferable outcome for the USA. This could possibly be done using the Constitutional Ammendment process.

By all means- and it shall be called Gitmo.
