So what does “a peaceful national divorce” entail? Because that’s article doesn’t really elaborate on it.
Do they want to relocate anyone they deem to be the enemy to the West Coast and then ‘build a wall’ down the Rockies? That sounds closest to a national divorce to me. But I suspect their version would involve ‘removing’ people they dislike while ceding no territory.
End result is probably going to turn coastal cities on the west coast into “autonomous republics” that are politically detached to the rest of the country.
I’ve always wondered what a city state solution would be like. Where cities over a million become their own state with full representation. I feel like that is the divorce we need.

Who is going to finance the flyover states then?
