Another vote for national divorce.
Of course, Tony the Tankie has installed Dominion Voting Machines so the vote will be officially recorded as "leftist hellscape where even the breadlines are out of bread."

tony, even in this thread the undercurrent is here.
Example? Some want to change the Constitution's intentional safeguards to effectively gerrymander their political viewpoint. The House is the people's House. The Senate is the several States. It balances urban versus rural interests. It forces conversation and compromise. But those are arcane notions in today's body politic. The Constitution is set up to prevent mob rule and to prevent tyranny by the few.
Another example? Don't like the judicial branch? Stack SCOTUS. What good would that do? The other side would stack when they got to power. Some day we'd have 923-922 SCOTUS ruling votes.
We're not there, yet, but an amicable divorce is better than Civil War 2.0 should it get that far.
USA = RSA & DSA
RSA = BREAD BASKET & SOUTH

We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie
