There are a lot of patriotic Americans that would fight to preserve the constitution and they will also fight to preserve the union. A secessionist movement will only divide us.

“There are a lot of patriotic Americans that would fight to preserve the constitution and they will also fight to preserve the union.”

The Constitution has been over for a long time - a dead as the Roman Republic in the days of Augustus Caesar. All that those “patriotic Americans” who would fight to preserve the Union would be doing is fighting to preserve the power of an illegitimate government. I don’t think that there will be much fighting, though. The more likely scenario is disintegration as a result of several endogenous and exogenous shocks to society over the next 10-15 years.

We disagree with everything they do, they are so different almost evil. Nancy pelosi said that we need to support abortion cause its good for the economy, thats sick!

In my view its either socialism or secession.

A constitution that is not respected or adhered to is no constitution at all. Actually, my prediction is not a secession movement per se, but I see the Union falling apart of its own accord because the current situation is untenable. We’re going to see the answer to the immortal question of, how big can a government get before it collapses under its own weight?
