I see what you're saying, but I think there's a way to have it be less "secession-y" and more a "get rid of those liberals, trying to make us all those educated, tolerant, future-conscious, woke losers"... If we create a "fine, I hate you, you hate me, let's just break up" messaging and let them go
Why would MAGA agree to it?
Getting rid of the libs!? Having fully white schools!? All the guns they want!? Fuck seatbelts and carbon monoxide detectors! And flood alarms! Pastors running elections! Why wouldn't they?
Because one Trump's ego, and two, those states fund the US
Because they love bullying liberals
