Maybe along party lines. Let the Democrats have their states and republicans and right wingers have ours. "The American Union" has become something like the soviet union or the European union. We are an enormous country, there are counties in america as big as european nations. Of course there is alot of division within the states as well but people can move to the state they prefer

So much hatred and division and so little gets done

Not much hatred in regular life in cities and towns throughout the USA. It's just the Charlottesville hate rally that caused an uproar. The uproar likely would have calmed down after the first day or two , but Trump fanned the fire and continues to fan the fire and this made it much worse.

I would expect a paid poster from Russia to suggest such political discourse in the USA. Suggesting the USA break apart would be Putin's biggest dream.

Why are you suggesting this, OP? What's your ulterior motive for suggesting the USA split apart?

It won't happen, no matter how much Putin wants it. We are indivisible.

Does America need to break up?

No, I believe in America.

Maybe the right should too.

Hate follows the racist/Nazi/skinhead fringe wherever they go because that's their currency.

They're a cancer on America and the so-called "president" supports them. And his mindless followers continue to support him.

This is comical. The red states would be still be one of the most powerful militaries on the planet, its not like russia would gain anything from us being more efficient as a nation. Liberal and right wingers are just too different and its getting worse, blue counties and red counties could form something new.we are an enormous nation LA county alone is bigger than most nations

The divisions are immense in this country

Just think of what we could accomplish if conservatives had their own country and the liberals had theirs. Any bets on which country would be more successful?
