Devil’s advocate position, but I sometimes think Trump could do a more valuable service to America by backing partition. There are clearly two incompatible versions of America now, and rather than going through all this turmoil, why not cut off the most diseased portions (east and west coasts and a Midwestern urban island), declare the independence of the remaining heartland with about half the population in each entity, and govern each portion separately.

My guess is the socialist Amerika would go bankrupt and descend into chaos within 10-20 years (days?) and the heartland America would prosper, of course suitable citizens of the globalist cesspool could and would emigrate to join and the heartland would probably shed a few million progressives. All of that would only strengthen heartland America.

Trump would win in a landslide in that formulation and a new constitution could give future presidents one six year term rather than this now-chaotic four year constant campaign mode.

The constitution of the heartland portion should specify that “excluded states” could rejoin their federation in two ways. Contiguous portions (like eastern Oregon, eastern WA) could join at birth or soon afterwards. Their electoral college proportions would be adjusted to reflect the lower populations. The second way in would be for entire states to secede from Amerika (as I am calling the Gates-Obama-Sorosian Federation of Enlightened Unigender Amerikans) and rejoin. There would be one interesting option for structural change. Large urban areas should have their votes fractionalized on a formula, the larger the census metropolitan area (to prevent work around solutions) the smaller the fraction. Metro New Yorkers would if in the heartland receive only 10% of a vote, metro Kansas City might be closer to 50%. Then if large urban states rejoined the real America from the fake one, they would have considerably fewer electoral college votes and urban fraud would be a much less serious problem.

I would justify all that on the basis of fully representative government — large cities have powerful city governments and a lot of clout in their states (unless state voting followed the same formula). So urban residents already control two powerful governments, why should they also control a federal government whose many duties are most often relevant to less populated regions. It would be a tacit admission that the wisdom of the formula of the electoral college and the Senate should be re-designed to meet modern reality.

If Trump would support this and several other prominent citizens got on board, perhaps we would see a move to this outcome and the actual result would not be a diminished America but a reborn America, ready to place itself in a more appropriate place than these globalist usurpers desire.

Or you can just let them ruin your wonderful country and see what happens next. Being a student of history, I already know the answer to that.
