The problem is the cities—everywhere.

The only split that makes sense would be to let them become a leftist archipelago.

The cities are filled with Takers who can outvote the Makers. That’s a fundamental flaw in our heretofore reasonably well functioning representative republic. We have now morphed into a dysfunctional kleptocracy and there’s no going back.

Cities in a new red state country will be a problem but not an insurmountable problem. Martial law for a few years then let them up slowly.

They might migrate away from the Central USA cities and go to coastal cities due to laws the Central USA passes like open carry for all. Right to work. No Unions. Drug testing for welfare people. Raising of edu standards. Mining, drilling and fracking allowed. Abortion outlawed. Two official genders. No gay marriage allowed. No freak trans in girl’s sports.
