    I was thinking one of the best things that could come out of this is if the US split into multiple countries

      That’s exactly what Russia has wanted since the cold war “ended”. That said, I honestly don’t know how we heal from this. A third of the country is bat shit crazy, and the sane among us are never going to join in their fascism. I think Balkanization is, for better or worse, in our future.

      Assuming we don’t all blow ourselves up first.

        No shit. Americans empowered ultranationalist to balkanize the USSR. Have a taste of your own medecine.

      Unfortunately the division this time is more rural/urban which would make the logistics of that nearly impossible. If you offered a time for people to move it’d also be vastly lopsided, not to mention things like house prices would crater in some places while skyrocketing in others.
