Splitting the country up would be INCREDIBLY disastrous. I also think some of the people clamoring for it would be in for some really rude awakenings (from all sides).
So you genuinely believe our divisions and political/cultural differences are fixable? I just don't see it. I don't see what would be so terrible about having a relationship like we currently have with Canada.

Oh brother. If Trump said the weather is nice,the Dems would attack him with climate change propaganda. Trump had TWO SCOOPS OF ICE CREAM. Get my drift?

This pathetic budget with no money for a wall but plenty of foreign aid, welfare etc, democrats tell them to hold hearings on "Russian influence " and they meekly obey when Susan rice should be before congress , every time there is some fake news or some media generated controversy about trump they just stay silent or flee

. the republicans were never serious about illegal immigration , outsourcing etc

The more it falls apart, the better for the far right
I don't think Mr. Bannon is in the line of succession if that's what you're getting at here?

Can't happen. The Democrats decided on getting their power through division of races,class,and religion. That is how they think today. It was not like this a few decades ago.

Lol Did you even read it? They didn't have their jobs shipped overseas.

And no one wants to do anything about it, in fear of being called an anti-semite.
People are trying but they are so organized in their hustle and vote in blocs so no one can win without their votes. It is a disaster over here.
