Split the US?

So...Who else here would agree with me on this? As an Objectivist my default is to look at current events with an open mind and open eyes. When I watch how media reports recent events, watch how people I know respond to current events...the far out of touch mindsets....I think we are seeing irreconcilable differences. Some states are whacky left. Some states are common sense and making things work. The leadership of some states clearly are fine playing an active role breaking laws and kowtowing to illegal, predatory criminals and immigrants who are hell-bent on defrauding the American taxpayers. It's totally unsustainable and it's clear that Trump and Bondi won't bring criminals to justice sufficiently. How about if we just have red and blue states? My concern if that if we don't call this in such a way we will see red states taken over via voter fraud. Here in NV our Dem Assembly has circumvented the governor by doing a declaration to place on the ballot the issue of mail-in ballots. Of course, mail-in ballots are a ploy to commit voter fraud to take control. It's a tool of the blue. If we don't split the nation as blue/red how does this end? Based on the fact that the blue obviously think the ends justifies the means it's pretty clear we fall to collectivism, excessive gun control, coercive government-backed medical measures, etc.

    Where I'm from the folks who grow the food are mainly conservative and too many of the free food consumers are in the city. If the SHTF it won't take much for the cities to find out where the food comes from. Even murderous Stalin and Mao couldn't make that work without massive attrition.

    I'm collecting from SS Ponzi and I figure if the US went to war with itself the currency wouldn't be worth spit and neither will anything connected to it (401k, IRA, etc.). Oh wait, even if the US doesn't go to war with itself the currency isn't going to be worth spit and neither will anything connected to it. Hunker down Gulchers, it's going to be a rough ride.

    I agree that it would take splitting many states and many people would be left
    residing in a state where they intensely disagree with the government and
    their employment makes it financially difficult to make a move elsewhere.
    Many left-biased cities would be islands surrounded by a sea of right-leaning areas.

    Of course, the biggest problem is that central government will go to war and
    murder millions to prevent anyone leaving their control/enslavement.
    Secondly, most people (aka most women and brainwashed males) do not value
    freedom as much as safety. They irrationally ignore that the safety is
    only achieved by government mafia that will act with force against anyone
    who disagrees with their enslavement by government and its corrupt corporatocracy.
    Thirdly, millions on social security can't afford any split that eliminates their
    retirement pay addiction.
    I don't see any peaceful split in our future.

    It's going to be a rough ride, IMO. I don't see a geographic solution by state as the two sides are interspersed. The problem is densely populated cities like NYC drive their states and the rest of the population is stuck with it. Take out NYC and NYS becomes more conservative.
