Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene renewed calls for a “national divorce” between red and blue states, arguing that Americans who move to conservative states from California and New York should have a “cooling off” period before being allowed to vote.
...“All possible in a National Divorce scenario,” Greene wrote. “After Democrat voters and big donors ruin a state like California, you would think it wise to stop them from doing it to another great state like Florida. Brainwashed people that move from CA and NY really need a cooling off period.”

And people dare call her extreme.
I feel this is less extreme than some of the solutions I consider.
Maybe parts of the inner city but grater Dallas and Houston are nowhere near that liberal
And I suspect the black and hispanic vote will be getting redder over the next few cycles
Only good thing in 78 was Pablo Cruise.
There should be no "national divorce." Demonicrat politicians need to be tried, convicted, and sentenced for murder, crimes against humanity, and treason.
Two years of state taxes requirement.
Its happening in GA. They move down here then vote Democrat.
Technically, however if all support was stopped, after a decade or so of being an absolute hellhole they might figure out a way. Some other red states like WY are in a similar position where if the FED money faucet turns off they are somewhat farked.
Texas, southwestern New Mexico, OK, and LA would probably make a pretty prosperous country pretty fast.
True, and the Sacramento Valley is just as red as Appalachia.
I know. Some would spit out, "If Donald Trump wins I'm moving out of the country", but did you ever hear of a single one who said they'd go to Mexico or Guatemala or Venezuela or Cuba, etc.?
Ditto illegal aliens. Can’t vote for at least 2 generations, to allow them to assimilate properly first.
You forgot to throw dog poopy on their shoes.

The Red States can restrict access. A real border.
Show us your voter registration from your state. Democrat? NOPE.
Didn’t register to vote or lost your voter registration? Too Bad, So Sad. NOPE.
Funny dream. Zero reality.
National Divorce is the answer.
I don’t want to live under their rules, they don’t want to live under mine.
And it’s not States, it’s people. I don’t want Pelosi telling me what to do, as much as many don’t want to follow DeSantis’ approach to leadership.
No Civil War - just Civil Separation
It’s just a question of how and when.
I live in one of those counties where there are a ton of white liberals. It went for killary in 2016. I’ve noticed the change here since I moved from Utah in 2013. It’s been a steady decline in quality of life. Once the kids graduate high school we are either moving to South Georgia or Florida. I previously lived in Houston, Texas back in the late 80s, the state would be an option but a very rural part of the state only.
I’ll end up wherever the wife says we are going though.
I’ll go with you, but I refuse to wear a leisure suit.

Oregon is the perfect example of a great state ruined by immigration from California. In the early seventies the bumper sticker “Don’t Californicate Oregon” was ubiquitous. It didn’t help.
Divorce? It’s our country, who the heck are these Communists to claim anything? They need to be thrown out.
Please please please let this happen.
They’re well into ruining TX.
