The destruction of the Supreme Court's legitimacy will the last straw leading to nation dissolution, or close to it.
This is a feature, not a bug.
Their argument basically comes down to "I hate you and everything you stand for, and will resist it with all my might, but if you do what I say I'll have slightly less contempt for you."
Counterproposal: No, and get fucked.
They are so convinced that their approval is of value that they cannot conceive, even as a hypothesis, that fine people would strongly prefer their indifference or contempt.
The level of egotism is downright satanic.

The Democrats have several category 5 nightmares to deal with rn
1) The Bidens: Jill Biden matters for the first time in her life. There's no incentive for her to cede power. And Biden's view is he kicked Trump out of the WH and therefore can do so again
2) Kamala: She can become president any minute now. Literally anything else is a demotion. She couldn't even make Iowa and is less electable than Biden. If the VP were a viable Plan B, Biden would have been gone already. They'd need to figure out how to get her to back down.
3) The Democrat elites: Other than Hillary--a previous nominee who lost yet with millions more votes--it would be almost impossible to designate someone else as the nominee and have all the other power-hungry sociopaths just smile and nod.

I dont agree that all that National Divorce, which is becoming mainstreamed far faster than I dared to dream, needs to be a function of Republican vs Democrat
A NY Republican is not the same as a SC Republican, and an FL Democrat is not the same as a CA Democrat
We already live in a nation where huge percentages of the population are under the sway of politicians whose ideologies and culture are antithetical to their own
That will still be the case once the nation divides
It will simply be less of the case
The conservatives who insist they aren't giving up Seattle and NYC might just as well argue for invading Ottawa
Unless they are arguing for something akin to Reconstruction, where the cities are occupied territory at enormous personal and financial cost, it is a utopian fantasy
conservatives still often fixate on whatever bullshit debate is at hand, as if their opponents are negotiating in good faith
here is a great example of environmentalism being thrown in the trash bc it isn't of use in furthering the agenda
nothing matters to them except power
we're about one election cycle away from boomercons blathering about how "conservatives are the real environmentalests!!1"
