(868 posts)First, how would you divide the country? As it stands now, we have this "Red Line of Stupidity" as I call it, running right down the middle of our country from North Dakota to Texas. We also have extremely blue states on each coast. Do we keep the Northeast, Midwest and give up Cali?
Second, unlike CWI, we dont have a North vs South as you alluded to and what I covered in my first point. If this did happen, its going to be random bands of MAGAt radicals roaming the countryside performing inquisitions based on witch trial-like testimony, seized government records showing who was a registered Dem, etc, etc, etc...all kinds of stuff from our worst nightmares. People will have to choose what they are going to do...team up with the crazies, take your chances of being a pacifist, or join with a resistance group.
Thirdly, lets say we DID find a way to divide the nation...one side being the new USA and the other being the Kingdom of Trumptardia....How long before the Trumptards decide they want the whole country and launch an attack. We would be in constant war..god help those living near the border. Another scenario would be that the Trumptards would ally themselves with Russia or China or both and launch a full scale invasion...I could see them just saying the hell with it and taking Canada and Mexico too while they were at it. Then would come the forced labor, the death camps, etc, etc, etc.
Anyway you put it, none of it will end nicely.
