As much as we think of the Republican party as being dead (from suicide), history teaches us that political trends are cyclical. Once a rethug wins back the White House in 260 years ( ), they won't want to succeed & it'll be us who will want to leave again.Speaking for myself, if I could've spent the entire eight years of shrubs so-called presidency in a bunker under lake Titicaca I would have.

Please go see the film "Lincoln". your side LOST decades ago.

you're not seceding; any and all talk of doing so is the equivalent of "I want a pony". It's pointless and juvenile

If history is any guide, these folks just need a few more years to get used to social progress than the rest of us.
