. trumps entire campaign was basically pulling back the curtain where he became the ultimate whistleblower. You go back and watch those RNC primaries and its unbelievable what he was laying out. You watch his speech after he was sworn in and its like he declared war against the entire system. many of which were sitting right there.

Another person from a foreign country giving an opinion,if they divided the US,one side would be in poverty,in Calif alone is 3 of largest corporations in the world,one wouldn't function without the other,it would end up in civil war
i think we will know more in the next 6 months behind the motives for this.
The bureau's latest American Community Survey statistics – covering data collected between 2011 and 2015 – shows that 47 million adults and 13.4 million children under the age of 18 lived in counties outside of America's major metropolitan regions. More than 81 percent of rural adults were homeowners, compared with 59.8 percent of urban denizens. Nearly two-thirds, 65.4 percent, lived in their state of birth, compared with 48.3 percent of city dwellers.
And less than 1 in 5 – 19.5 percent – had earned a bachelor's degree, shy of urban America's 29 percent mark.

The only real solution is to go to a states rights approach - to decentralize. Then states can have laws how they see fit, and people can move where they prefer. Basically a return to the original federalism the nation began with.
Of course that wont happen because it would cut into the power of the ruling class. Theyd rather burn the country down.

A confederate system will fall especially in today's geopolitical climate.

Educated and uneducated?
Are you implying that rural folks have no education?
I come from a college educated family and a fairly rural one.

LOL, don’t let them get to you. I live in a small city of 100k. I have a Master’s (and multiple subordinate college level degrees), my wife has a BS, one daughter has a BS and the other is finishing up a Masters. This myth that rural folks are uneducated is perpetuated by the Left to support their self-righteous argument of being ”better” than the rest of us, whatever that means. Oh, and I am surrounded by other degree holding rural denizens...
