The problem is ideological and to an extent spiritual, there are no neat geographical lines. It’s largely urban vs. rural if you’ve got to draw a map, and even that doesn’t hold up, the more granular you get with the data. The people who perceive a problem are largely on either end of the ideological spectrum, the great mushy middle is just plodding along. When the great mushy middle can no longer do that, then the country will no longer cohere. My paternal grandfather was born during Reconstruction, his father was a Confederate, ran away and joined at 14 to look for his oldest brother. They hadn’t heard from him in months. Never found him, he’d been gut shot and died untreated at Point Lookout. You really don’t want civil war. You may think you do, and it may eventually become unavoidable. But, you don’t want it. Anyone who’s clamoring for it is either naive or a fool.

Agreed, but if Deep State takes out Trump and that bitch is still running around free, I think we become awfully close to it.

It is actually fairly neat geographically. Draw a line 50 or so miles inland on both the West and East Coasts. The two coasts are one country, the rest is another. A few million would be trapped behind enemy lines on both sides, but they can either accept permanent minority status or move.
