National Divorce Is More Popular Than You Think

[winetourdriver01]

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s call for breaking up the U.S. outraged many, but the idea is fairly mainstream and bipartisan. It’s also totally unrealistic.
“We need a national divorce,” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) tweeted from her personal account on Monday.

“We need to separate by red states and blue states and shrink the federal government,” she continued. “Everyone I talk to says this. From the sick and disgusting woke”—well, if you’re at all familiar with Greene, you can probably guess where she was going, and you also won’t be surprised to learn she returned to the theme a few hours later on her congressional account, issuing an ultimatum: Impeach President Joe Biden or permit the split.

1. fuck these fascist pieces of SHIT

THEY LITERALLY DON'T BELIEVE IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

[winetourdriver01]

3. However

That tune would change quickly if they were completely in charge. Then it would be my way or the highway.

[Skittles]

7. they remind me of 8 year olds who insist they don't need a babysitter

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!

[Duncanpup]

4. Exactly

[aeromanKC]

2. To be fair, she is correct

Our government would shrink considerably not having to subsidize the Red States.

[winetourdriver01]

5. True

And the standard of living for the rest of us would go through the roof.

[Bluethroughu]

10. They need to becareful what they wish for. The red states will

Bring slavery back non-discriminantly, and give all collected taxes to their friends and business. It would be a definate shithole country.

6. Who gets the dishes?

8. a reprise of the past when we were told, ...

... America, love it or leave it.
The national divorce should require 'them' to leave the house.

Don't like it, get the hell out.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

9. Another cockamamie idea that was NOT thought out...

Besides, has MTG worked out how states would have their own....States that "DIVORCE" itself from the US Government as we know it to be?

Developing its own Economy
Military Fighting force(All US Military bases would be cut off)
Generating its own revenue through Taxation to pay for ALL services it needs to fund
Closing ALL National Parks and Federal Buildings under the auspice of the US Government
NO Postal Service
NO Disaster relief

Just to name a few things. What a mess a "divorce" would be. States like Texas might survive, but the rest of the states under Republican leadership might not be so lucky. Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Oklahoma, Kansas, Louisiana, etc., will suffer. Florida too now that DeSatan has increased the taxes for homeowners where Disney World is located.

11. What would "they" be called? FSA! Fascist States Of America

And how long would we want to be neighbors?

[eppur_se_muova]

18. Nah -- "Dixie". nt

20. I grew up in the South and the racists would all say

"Save your Confederate currency the South shall rise again."

Here we are, but more northern States have joined the confederates in proclaiming who is worthy of human rights!

[Aristus]

21. Shows you how stupid they are.

Confederate currency didn't become worthless because the South lost the war. It was already more or less worthless by 1863, two years before the war ended. What makes them think it will suddenly develop value just because of the national "divorce"?

[303squadron]

22. Have you checked out the price of confederate currency on the "bay?"

[Aristus]

23. Memorabilia is one thing.

A freely-exchangeable currency in a functioning economy is another.

[tanyev]

12. And they're envisioning a divorce where they receive generous lifetime alimony payments

regardless of what they do or who they sleep with.

[C_U_L8R]

13. They want a divorce after betraying the country?

They don't get to keep the house. Go find some far away rock if you want your own land.

[genxlib]

14. Well no kidding

Who among us wouldn’t want to banish about 30% of the electorate to an island somewhere

However, there should be a distinction between the random frustrations of average citizens and professional policy makers. What you or I say about some assholes on social media is not the same as a national leader who is actually in a position of making changes

It simply absurd and irresponsible not to mention un-American

It is just the result of a downward spiral where the crazy uncle types are being increasingly seen as leadership material. The inmates have taken over the asylum.

[Hope22]

16. Does she realize that she currently represents a blue state?

Do we expect the states to be locked into red or blue after the divorce? Can states remarry after the divorce and who gets the children. So many unanswered questions.

[bottomofthehill]

19. I am not shocked. I would happily let them go. Welcome to Dumbfuckastan.

You vote to go, you leave. I would even let them leave with .50 cents on the dollar of rhe over payments they have received from the US treasury over the past 50 years. Military bases close, military assets returned to the USA. Transfer of federal payments complete. Stand up your own services. Don’t let the door hit ya where the lord split ya

[Rebl2]

24. I wish

she would divorce herself from these United States and go live in Russia, giving up her citizenship to our country.
