re: #190 Belafon

The largest Republican voting block is in California. The second largest Democratic voting block is in Texas.

The point of the “national divorce” rhetoric is that Democrats would all move to blue states, and Republicans to red states, and then we’d essentially revoke the Supremacy Clause and each state would be responsible for its own affairs. Quite aside from the massive logistical headaches that would cause, the point being made here is that wingnut Republicans can’t even agree amongst themselves what set of religious laws should apply. They’d wind up fracturing basically into city-states, as communities of marginalized conservative communities band together a la the original Mormons to survive.
