I think that if any southern state wants to leave, we should let them. The only one that wouldn't be addition by subtraction would be Texas.

Yeah, we should try to keep Texas.  The rest are net takers, living off of the north's charity.  Should try to work a deal for New Orleans.

I always took that thread to be more of a fantasy/joke thread. Perhaps I stand corrected. If anyone actually thinks any of the scenarios in that thread are probable, let alone possible, then well, I think they should probably be ridiculed.

It would be difficult, but good things are.  I don't look at it from the angry secession perspective, but more an amicable divorce perspective.  We've grown apart and that's OK.

I think that realistically, if we offered the south a peaceful secession, they would refuse. They are only interested if it involves a violent uprising where they get their balls collectively tased off and they get to continue to be Americans afterward.

They wouldn't actually do it.  If that collection of obese states think they could go it alone without the federal aid they aren't looking at math.  They are net takers.

Well, it is never going to happen in our lifetime.


Not with that defeatist attitude it's not.

Texas wouldn't do it either. They complain about illegal immigration now. Imagine the problems they would have without the USFG (insert Dems want open borders strawman here). Also, when you start to factor in matters of national defense. Roflmao. Let them try to do it on their own.

Only a completely out-of-touch idiot doesn't believe that the ProgFascist movement isn't pushing hard for open borders.

You lived most of your life in Kansas and outside Portland and Seattle the PNW is filled with racist survivalist who would rather drink pond water and eat MREs than go to the store with the coloreds and globalists.

Well I haven't had one in roughly 30 years, when they only came in solid green bags, and they were crap, so you may be right.

There’ll definitely have to be a lot of moving around via the transfer portal.

Lol.  That is a good way for the GQP to lose by even wider margins than it did in 2020.  Maybe Trump running again is what finally turns Texas blue.

I'd prefer him to go away forever. But pubs getting hamstrung with a proven loser in 2024 seems like getting what they deserve for embracing him to begin with.

I dunno man, I think Trump will grab back a lot of votes back from the 'burn it down' crew again.

Just when you think they can't taze anymore, they turn the tazer up to 11 and blast their own bags into 2024

Who will run against him in the primary? I'm guessing we get Sasse and maybe Romney. Not expecting much opposition, really.

Dude is going to so old in 4 years.  If he won, he'd be 86 at the end of his term.

I don't think his age is going to matter much. It's not like he would be any less competent as a leader than he was the last time. I'd be a little bit surprised if he lives that long, though.

The article says he isn't going to run, he's just saying that to hang on to power. He's more likely to be in jail for tax evasion than the Republican nominee for president.

If he's still alive, he would run from prison and he would win the nomination.

The upside to running is that it would keep Gaetz/Hawley/Cotton from running.  I don't know how they could suck him off and run against him at the same time.
