Asizable percentage of U.S. voters support a proposal to split the country into two separate countries — amid bitter political divides, according to a new Just the News Daily Poll with Scott Rasmussen.

Twenty-five percent of respondents back "splitting the red states and blue states into separate countries."

A very solid majority, 62%, oppose such a measure

Just the News Daily Poll RMG Research Political divisions in the U.S. have become even more bitter and divided in the wake of the 2020 election, won by Democrat Joe Biden in a close contest and amid concerns about voting irregularities in the U.S.'s election process.

That 64% oppose is because they need the middle class small business still.

Problem is, where would you draw the lines? There are red counties in blue states and vice versa.

Give democrats the cities they love so much and they can live there. I also find it ironic that the radicals in my area of eastern PA won’t move to NJ.

How do you keep a country red or blue without an iron fist?

While this sounds like a dream to me, even here in Texas the population is very close to 50/50. I doubt you could get a state like Texas to vote for succession, much less the US Fed Gov allow it.

We are too far apart politically and ideologically to ever again form a cohesive nation together...

It’s all going according to plan. Our foreign enemies couldn’t beat us in a war. But they could divide us, and they did.

And we helped, giving the left the public schools.

Some people would have to move, others would just be unhappy where they stay. It’s either that, blood in the streets, or the continuing slow slouch toward barbarism. There are no perfect options.

My wife’s been a proponent of this for several years. She was thrilled to see this story.

Works for me. How would they split the Federal government agencies though (Medicare, SS, IRS, etc.)?

Exactly. NJ is a largely red state with a blue line stretching from the NE to Trenton/Camden. Unfortunately, WuFluFlight has blurred that in a lot of states this past year.

many in blue states are TRAPPED by election fraud
from ChInA, Ukraine-SOROS, and ROME-Frankfurt-Merkel.

they want to be free, not slaves.

it is time to arrest/jail/gitmo the criminals, is it not?
