Could I pretend to be a Trump voter just long enough to vote in support of it?

State elections are done by popular vote, not empty land. Let each state vote and anyone that's unhappy with the result can move.

I used to feel that way but I'm so tired of them I'd like to ignore them entirely.

Um... lands don't vote. People do.

Re: the OP...yes I am all for splitting this country in two. We are more split every year and there is absolutely NO chance of ever getting back together. NONE.

How about the red states become their own country? Name it whatever you want. A new constitution is created making it a Kingdom run by the Trump family. No elections just successors that are Trump family members who would rule the country. Call them Presidents, Kings, Imperial Rulers, whatever you want. Elections, the MSM and Democrats getting in the way would no longer be a problem.

And the Democrats would have their own Blue America with which they can do as they choose.
I would be more than happy to split this country apart. Especially after the Democrat's Summer of Riots, where progressive terrorists burned, assaulted and killed their fellow citizens, with the approval of the Party and it's propaganda wing. The rest of your post was just asinine; no supporter of Trump wants him as king. It was just refreshing to have a president that didn't hold disdain for his and our country.

Why? Alabama has more engineers per 1000 employed folks per capita than any other state.



No, I'm not going to provide any link, just google it, as I've been told a few times via the "reputation link."

Walled off from what? I am a Libertarian. I can live in either the Blue or Red country. I am not all hyper partisan as most on here are.
