No way the red state faction stays peaceful, as soon as they fuck something up they’ll deflect blame on to the blue state faction and start doing airstrikes on us to distract
e; Also, this red state faction could never ever ever be allowed to have a nuclear arsenal or we would all be very fucked, so that’s another big hurdle to any kind of breakup plan
They wouldn’t be able to uphold the industrial capacity without blue states. At least Russia has oil and Siberian resources. The fuck would they have? Texas is barely holding together and oil extraction may not be maintained on a large enough scale and Alaska is weird and would probably join the blue states.
Lots of guns and zero humility or acceptance of their own mistakes. Also, Florida sinking into the ocean probably isn’t going to make anyone in that territory more well behaved.
Also also - it wouldn’t be fair to the rest of the world to let this red state country come into existence, because when they aren’t attacking us they’d probably be flinging shit at places like Mexico and Cuba. Also, you know their environmental policies would be a fucking disaster that the global climate really can’t afford.

Worst case scenario you chuck a couple sabateurs over the boarder and have them blow up the water infrastructure. Try being uppity without water.
