True, but most who mention it aren’t serious. It’s largely because few can imagine it really happening, even they know that parts of the populace don’t believe in what this country was established for. Among those who give it serious thought, few know of how it can be legally done.

Can states be expelled from the U.S.A. or succeed from it legally? I truly don’t know.

***I want to point out that I make these suggestions NOT for the purposes of having massive bloodshed. IMHO, the only way NOT to have CW2 is to (somewhat) peacefully separate BEFORE the blood spills.***

Maybe a bit simplistic, but: Have the POTUS issue an EO that ‘x’ states are removed/expelled from the USA/Union.

It would take some serious coordination beforehand (currency, military installations, federal land/buildings, etc., etc., etc.), but why not?

I suppose another way would be to have a Constitutional Convention, but the chances of having it and accomplishing the goal of ejecting the “Blues” would be pretty close to nil, especially in an expedited manner.

Or have the “Red” states secede. I know it's been tried before, unsuccessfully, but maybe the second time’s the charm? Interesting that after 150 years, the “battle lines” are still pretty much the same.
