Even the Confederate secessionists were capable of using polysyllabic words properly in their discourse.
She sounds like a second grader in the slow reading group throwing a tantrum.

Getting really tired of hearing this woman's constant antics and theatrics.
Go for it. A pretty big portion of the red states can't manage to balance their budgets. It would be funny to see them collapse under the weight of corporate greed and political ineptitude.
Here in Colorado we have some idiots in at least one county who wants to secede from the state and become part of Wyoming. Personally, I would love that because those people have no idea what they're asking for. Wyoming is one of the strictest states when it comes to cannabis, which would become illegal again. You can't have it both ways where you keep your blue state protections and have your red state affiliation.
I just don't want to read about this woman any more. It's obvious she's a troll who is saying ridiculous things to stir anger and get attention.
I vote to secede any dumb and ignorant things she says from Lemmy altogether.
As stupid as the things she says are, she has real, tangible power. It's not smart to ignore such people.

Maybe a little time apart wouldn't be such a bad thing? Like a trial separation.
She is such a fuckwit.
Logic and rational thought seceded from her brain long ago
If people took MTG seriously, the world would be in a whole heap of trouble.
Unfortunately there are too many Americans that do take her seriously.

Good. We'll finish Sherman's work
Lol go ahead, the blue states are the ones keeping the red states afloat.
I remember when the rhetoric was to get along with others, including people with different views.

Shouldn't US politics secede from MTG instead?
Yup. Treason-face gonna treason talk.
This has to be illegal? Like, a congress woman can say that without repercussion right?
Don't count her statement out. Yes, letting the REP states go would weaken the union, but think of the popcorn you'd consume while you see them sink without pork barrels and subsidies.
