Exactly

If the same exact scheme was thought up by someone in Wyoming or Idaho to give statehood to each little county statehood, and the results would be the predictable flood of republicans, the big-brains (ha!) here on DCUM would be on the other side of this. As would the student who wrote this garbage.


Everything is a power grab scheme for dems. Everything.

The GOP represents a tiny portion of Americans.

So the first step is for liberals to start ignoring Gorsuch and Kavanaugh's illegitimate votes. When a president steals an election by fraud, illegality, and a ton of help from Russia, his judges are fake. Fake president, fake judges.

Why do you think there are two Dakotas?

Because of a power grab by Republicans.

You missed the comment on breaking up existing states being far harder than creating new ones from non-state territory.

I hope you are a troll, otherwise this is an incredibly stupid comment.

Not at all. Such a naked attempt to make rural states subservient to the coasts could very well lead to a civil war, or potentially Velvet Revolution and a peaceful separation in a better case.

+1, the next civil war will be an urban vs rural one.

Cities don't grow food. Cities don't produce energy. Cities don't have most of the power plants that produce the electricity in the power grid.

What cities DO have is an abundance of libs who like to tell others how they can live. And frankly, we rural folk don't need that.

So when you folks start the next civil war, probably with some kind of gun confiscation stunt, we're going to wait until the next winter, take down all the high tension wires that supply you with electrical power, blow the pipelines that supply the gas that keeps your cities warm, the water aquaducts that give you your city water, and blockade the interstates where your food comes in.

Then you can freeze and starve all winter.

We'll fight whoever's left alive in the spring.


That's what the next civil war will look like. And we're training for it all the time.

America’s cities drive our economy. Without them, America is a third world country.

Sick and tired of low-educated rural people ruling this country because billionaires buy their votes with propaganda on Fox.

Just as we changed the constitution to ban slavery, we will change the constitution to reform the Senate and Electoral College. And DC is going to lead that effort.

Great. Get started on that Amendment process. I think you'll have a little trouble getting all those rural states to ratify something that will strip them of their representation though.

Still, you should try anyway. It'll keep you occupied, and not screwing something else up.
