Secession! Most Republicans would like to secede to the US

A new poll by the University of Virginia C enter for Politics reveals that 52% of Trump voters and 41% of Biden voters "totally or partially agree" that Republican and Democratic states should separate from the union, dividing the country.

We have not returned to 1859, but by now the mutual distrust between the political parties is exceeding the warning levels. Politics, understood as dialogue, is completely failing its purpose, and so separation is sought.

From the report of the Center for Politics:

A significant number of both Trump and Biden voters show a willingness to consider violating democratic trends and norms, if necessary, to serve their priorities. About 2 in 10 Trump and Biden voters firmly agree that it would be better if a "president could take the necessary action without being bound by Congress or the courts" and about 4 in 10 (41%) of Biden and half (52%) of Trump agree that it is time to divide the country, favoring the secession of the blue (dem) / red / rep) states from the union.

The poll also notes that while around 80% of Trump and Biden voters prefer democracy to an undemocratic form of government, 60% of Trump voters do not see America as a representative democracy – and instead more than a system managed and rigged for the benefit of the rich.

Here are other data:

– A majority of Trump and Biden voters express support for different elements of the bipartisan infrastructure and for the reconciliation bills under discussion in Congress, but there are notable differences in their levels of support.

– The often large majorities of Biden and Trump's voters express some form of distrust of the voters, elected officials and media sources they associate with the other side. A strong majority of Trump voters see no real difference between Democrats and Socialists, and a majority of Biden's voters at least partially agree that there is no real difference between Republicans and fascists.

The radicalization of American politics is now skyrocketing, coupled with widespread distrust of the mass media, and this is a great evil for a nation. The politics of the left, however, prefer division and sectarianism.
