It’s better than letting the commies take over by hook and crook via cheating.
Who would secede, and how does it work?
For example, would a conservative state such as Wyoming secede? Or would a liberal state such as Vermont secede? Would states secede individually, or group together when a big group secede, as happened when the Confederacy was formed? As i recall, those states seceded one by one, and then formed the Confederacy.
But is there a clean liberal/conservative split among states that is realistic? For example, Illinois is a conservative state when you get outside the Chicago area. Michigan is conservative when you get outside Detroit. Much of upstate New York is quite conservative. New York City and environs is what makes New York a “blue” state.
So if a liberal state seceded, there would be huge numbers of conservatives in most of those states trapped behind enemy lines, so to speak.
