Irreconcilable differences but no divorce? Is there any hope to save this union?

As Athena points out, we are not going to see a civil war with a 21st century Gettysburg. What we will see is a gradual realignment instead or people moving to red states looking for more freedom, such as low taxes and school choice.  They will leave behind states and cities decaying and drowning in their excessive taxation, lawless streets, and schools that benefit no one.

Ayn Rand, “Atlas Shrugged” is a prophecy.

I just want Texas to leave, I could care less about the rest.

[ConservativeDude]

preach! (though if we opened that door, many others would follow.....not that I want that, as such, but...)

[Gay State Conservative]

I would vigorously support an “amicable” divorce. I’ll move to North Carolina if necessary.

[mrmeyer]

The locusts will migrate.

And how long would it take for Texas,standing alone,to be absorbed by Mexico?

[semimojo]

Are we there as a country? I wonder, reading what goes on every day.

That’s his problem. Silvio needs to stop doom scrolling and try living in the real world.

Things aren’t as bad as the emotion manipulators, on both sides, want you to believe.

The systemic infiltration is irreversible.
We had a chance to “drain” the patient of infection several years ago but they decided to live with it.
Now without radical surgery, the patient will die.
The patient however is requesting more prayer and protests.
See tagline.

I want a divorce. I no longer want democrats of any flavor to have any say over how I should be governed.

“..I want a divorce. I no longer want democrats of any flavor to have any say over how I should be governed.....”

^THIS^
These godless, anti-American POSs can go pound sand.....

Where do you live, cause things seem pretty bad just about everywhere from what I can tell!
That is, if you’re of a conservative bent.
If you’re more liberal, I’d believe one could think it’s not bad. Things are kinda going my way!

[Jonty30]

To save the Union, we have to go back to the Constitutional roots of the US. As long as liberals don’t want to do that, there will be no saving the Union in the long-term.

[Macoozie]

“Is there any hope to save this union?”

No-

Get on with the National Divorce-
I don’t wnat to live with them, and they don’t want to live with me.

Moving to states is just part of it.
But even then, are you OK with Thune and Schumer controlling your life?

[Antioch]

But why cede land or whole states to degenerates, criminals and the mentally ill? Your forefathers fought and died for the entire union.

[Brass Lamp]

And how long would it take for Texas,standing alone,to be absorbed by Mexico?

I can't tell if your asking seriously. I suppose a major episode of glaciation could tip the scales in Mexico's favor.

[Texas resident]

That is happening now and covid accelerated it.

I have met a lot of people from California and Washington state that are good people. They want to get the hell away from all the lawlessness and insanity.

[Gay State Conservative]

I was *completely* serious.

[semimojo]

Really? Do you personally encounter a lot of wokeness and denigration of conservatives as you go about your day? Or is it more in what you read about and watch?

I don't think a divorce is possible: Fedzilla is already firmly under the control of the radical Left and the Dem party. They're already breaking the law and violating the Constitution with innumerable illegal regulations, leaving the border open, and persecuting political opponents with lawsuits and phony prosecutions. What makes anyone think they will just say, "Aw shucks, go ahead, go your own way?" Plus the outflow of liberals to conservative states is simply repeating the same pattern.

We are already in a Constitutional interregnum with rigged state-wide elections. And look at the fight the Dems are putting up against SCOTUS' rulings on abortion and against gun control at both the Federal and state levels. Those decisions hang on the thin reed of a couple of aging justices.

Since we're already in a Constitutional interregnum, we might as well do what is necessary: the complete suppression of the Dem party and the left and all its major backers. Proscription lists like Sulla: arrests, executions, confiscation of property and lifetime bans on any public employment, corporate board memberships or any position of responsibility.
