Dear God, not this national divorce thing again – The Spectator World

Marjorie Taylor Greene wants Americans to get a national divorce, and the only question is who gets custody of Puerto Rico. Actually there are other questions, such as: why the hell are we talking about this again? And: why is a member of the United States House of Representatives advocating breaking up the United States? And: which third party gets to be the divorce lawyer? Because there is no way Canada is telling me how much alimony I have to pay.

For those of you leading normal and productive lives, this latest brain-plague began on Twitter when Congresswoman Greene declared, We need a national divorce. We need to separate by red states and blue states and shrink the federal government, adding, Everyone I talk to says this. Apparently not everyone because the comment was furiously denounced by Greene s colleagues on both sides of the aisle. Republican governor Spencer Cox called the idea evil, while Republican senator Mitt Romney called it insanity. And that was just the Utah delegation.
