You are forgetting to include the very large group who voted for Trump because he was the very definition of the "Lesser of two evils".

Hillary is just pizzed because somebody dropped a house on her sister and her Senior Flying Monkey was using an intern for a humidor.

So what's your plan? Have all the cities over 250K join one country and the entire rest of the nation be a different country? That's completely asinine. The divide is not by state. It's by urban/rural. Your suggestion is dumb af.

Let's just take a few steps backward to better understand this possibility.

Since the 2016 election, Dems have tried everything in the book to get rid of Trump, and nothing has worked.
They were sure impeachment would , but again, it was failure for removing the President from office.
The economy was sailing right along with many previous records falling by the wayside.
New restrictions on trade with China were being implemented, and the United States was prospering, while China was feeling the blunt of the Trump administration.

The dems felt there was no stopping Trump, or the economy.
With things as they were, they knew no dem candidate stood a chance of beating Trump in the next election.
They needed a plan to once and for all rid the country of this president, and I strongly believe they contacted government officials in China to come up with a foolproof plan to oust the president.

China was fearful of the new sanctions imposed by Trump, and knew it would cut into their country's economy.
Add to that the agreement between Canada and Mexico for better trade, and that may have also worried China.
China needed a plan to get the United States to lessen the impact of the Trump administration's tariffs proposals, if it wanted to stay viable in the world economy.

Now, we have two powerful factions with one goal, that being to make sure Trump is not re-elected.
I would guess the secret meetings were many, as were the thought up proposals as to how best to move forward.
With China's record of human rights violations, bringing harm to some in the population, perhaps by an, as yet, unknown virus could most certainly prove successful, should that virus spread through out the world, with a primary target on the United States.
I believe China enlisted the help of the WHO in negotiating just how to move forward.

Meanwhile the higher up's in the democratic party were planning their course of action, knowing the government of China, along with the WHO could be more than capable of this endeavor.
All concerned knew many would die as a result, but that fact would be washed aside, if the end result was the President would never be re-elected.

A pandemic of mass proportions would undoubtedly ruin the great economy the Trump administration had worked to improve.
The dems were sure this would be the fatal blow that up until now,they were unable too achieve.

Were this unleashing of a deadly virus successful in doing what China, and the dems wanted, they could run Mickey Mouse for president, and the odds are , he would win.
Presently their chosen candidate is perhaps on equal footing with Mickey.

This event may sound preposterous to many, but certainly not out of the realm of possibility.
I leave that up to you.
It's amazing you can connect the dots between these completely unrelated points, yet you're confused about how & why someone would knowingly accept help from another country to win the US presidency.

The OP is just the latest of the Trump supporters to launch a Kamikaze attack. Making one big, absurd claim and sacrificing all semblance of personal credibility in the process.

If this thread did nothing else, it caused some to think this could possibly happen, and for those who feel it is just hogwash, though they want to dismiss it, they will think of it in the coming days, weeks, or even months.

That thing in the back of your mind will keep asking, could this be so?
Could some members of the dem party actually convince China to take on Trump, to see he isn't re-elected?

Some of you will state "Iv'e already forgotten it", but you and I both know you haven't, and won't.
That ole "what if" comes into play. and for many reading this thread, it will stay there.

Actually, when it comes to the states, majority rules. Blue states should be able to wave goodbye to the conspiracy laden red hatters, who can move to the remaining red states to worship Orange Jesus as much as they want. Redraw the border, I'm sure Canada would LOVE to combine Washington state with British Columbia. After that the red hatters can do anything they want and I'll just watch from afar with my popcorn while they try to prove some of their dumb conspiracies.

Talk about being so impudent to the point of thinking that with time everyone will see this as a “dem plan”, and that the entire world was in on it. How preposterously absurd.
