And if it comes down to it, a peaceful, negotiated disunion would still be preferable to a civil war.

Never. A seperated union would be at the mercy of larger powers such as the CCP, if the US is to maintain it's presence and power on the world stage, a civil war is what is required.

No, the interlopers get the bullet or the bayonet and then their property given to patriots to oversee and grow. That's how it was done since before our country left the Empire all the way up to the Spanish-American War.

And who gets to decide who's patriot enough?

And what will you do with the millions of socialists, who will still be voting after your supposed civil war?

If I fight a war against them, what makes you think I'll let them vote when I win? Records will be checked. Anyone who voted for biden will be stripped of their rights, at a minimum. As the guy above said, things would not go back to how they were.

Basically do a “reconstruction” to them as they did to the south.

Forced labor camps, military governments in lefty states, Andersonville.

Then we take care of them like you said. But not by breaking up the Union. We will cease to be a world power otherwise.

Being a "world power" need not be a goal. Being just strong enough so that we're left alone to live in peace would be fine enough for me.

A big issue with that, is if a civil war happens powers outside the USA will also begin taking actions to exploit it. If we have a civil war, I genuinely expect the CCP to get militarily involved with one side.

CA, NY, NJ all have many Trump supporters. We’d all be shipped off to the gulags when the CCP takes control of the disunited states. And then it would leave the interior open to harvesting. Coastal Pedes are the literal last line of defense against China.
