[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]States are banding together to overcome the damage that the current administration is doing to the federal system. Might this be the way of the future for the US as a whole and become the beginnings of dividing the US into separate regions with some type of weak  federal oversight?

Old Russian propaganda. This was promoted over a decade ago under the guise of social science from Russia.

Don’t fall for it. Besides it gives Trump the authority to keep the union together by any means necessary. [/quote]
Regardless of who promoted the idea originally, breaking up the US or at least providing regional autonomy makes a lot of sense.  There’s also precedence, for example Quebec/Canada, Catalonia/Spain, Scotland/UK.  Also the voluntary dissolution of Czechoslovakia in the 1990’s.  Honestly it’s the only realistic alternative we have given how hopelessly divided we are along tribal and cultural fault lines.[/quote]
It’s not red vs blue states, it’s cities vs rural areas. How would you divide it up?[/quote]
That’s a problem. Look at Texas and Missouri. Four blue cities in Texas is the economic engine for the state, but the state is politically controlled by the rural red areas surrounding them. St. Louis and Kansas City is blue or light blue in Missouri, and those cities are the crown jewels for the state’s economics. However, the rural red areas are set to gerrymander the hel-ll out of those two cities, divide them into pieces and create red republican voting districts that extent up to 100 miles outside the respective city limits.

Unpopular opinion, but if you are blue in a red state, move. Let's the red states drown themselves. [/quote]
