Personally, I don't see a way for us to 'part company," although I surely do wish we could. Not only is this nation sort of like a tightly woven tapestry in terms of resources allocations, food production, etc., but values voters are living in blue states and vice versa. How would we resolve the many issues that would face us? In the end I think we're going to have to take this nation back more or less in the same way in which the socialists took it.
