The United States Has Become Two Countries Within a Nation
American Thinker ^ | 1 Jul, 2022 | Steve McCann

We as a nation are at that defining moment when one side has to win and the other lose; there is no middle ground.

Not since the decade leading up to the Civil War has there been as much discussion about the possibility of the United States splitting into two or more countries as there has been in the past 10 years. The reality is that this nation has effectively split into two countries which are, for the moment, tenuously living side-by-side.

Race or ethnicity has been the underlying foundation in the creation of every nation in the history of mankind except the United States, as its founding was based on the tenet that all men are created equal and are endowed with certain unalienable rights that government cannot abrogate. As it does not have the cohesive factors of race or ethnicity, this nation as constituted can only survive based on the goodness of its people and the wisdom and integrity of its ruling class.

Ben Franklin at the close of the Constitutional Convention in 1787 in a speech to his fellow members of the convention said of the newly drafted Constitution and the government it created:

…and there is no form of Government but what may be a blessing to the people if well administered, and [I] believe farther that this is likely to be well administered for a course of years, and can only end in Despotism, as other forms have done before it…

Ben Franklin’s prescient forewarning has come to pass. Over the past thirty-years, a plurality of ill-educated and malleable citizens have allowed the self-serving, decadent and nescient ruling class, in alliance with the radical left, to establish near-permanent despotism in the United States. They have deliberately and inexorably widened the gulf between the people

If this were really the case, Deep State wouldn’t have to steal elections, would it.

It suits Deep State for us to think so.

And both sides are hell bent on keeping it that way.

Totalitarianism
Are we there yet?

Not yet but we're headed in that direction.

The split is rural vs urban. Look at the recent elections on a county by county basis.

Urbanites control the media.

Urbanites live in an artificial environment devoid of God’s creation. You can’t see the stars in urban areas because of man made light pollution. If you can’t see the vastness of the cosmos, how can you understand the truth about mankind?

Biden’s family is filled with them too.

UT, AZ, IN, OH, MI - unsure

UT keeps giving us Romneys. AZ would need a Southern wall 1st, IN, OH, MI, I just don't know much about. Then of course people in the South half of IL would want to split off from Northern IL. PA might want to split East/West. IA also iffy. NC, SC coast is probably blueish.

The only “nation” was the fake one created by intense propaganda efforts during WW I & II which fell apart in the 1960s.

Interesting take.

Of course now we have a ruling class that no longer even sees the need to pretend we are a nation - it views and is turning the U.S.A. basically into a global community chest.

It will come to blows, and it will be started by the left.
And finished by the right (both meanings of right).

One side is acting on this and the other is not.

United States

Each state should be thought of as Nation State. Each state has it’s own constitution and three branches of government. Fedgov was never supposed to become the monstrosity that it has. States shouldn’t be as financially supported by fedgov they are.

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

IN, OH and most of MI are pretty conservative. Can’t speak for UT. The people seem to be conservative and family oriented, but then they give us Romney and have a nut case liberal governor.

It’s definitely biased along those lines. I liken it to the way they do new phone area codes... rather than carve out a separate geographical area for the new code like was done years ago, for quite a few years now the codes are just intermingled. To some extent, this is a bit of metaphor for how we live...we’ve all become that much more insular as we can communicate and live our lives without having any contact with the folks right next door... a concept that of course was generally unimaginable before modern telecommunications.

I take issue with the number.

I posit the US is three countries.

The City States alone are one. The States they control are two and all the rest are three.

The City States are America’s most dangerous enemies and short of a war will continue to prevail.

They deposed an American President in a coup. Fortunately, they are rotting
