United We Stand---What happened to that Sentiment?

Like other third countries which we've rapidly become, it all depends who has the military on their side. When push comes to shove, I don't think they will follow Trump's commands.
JFK would never sided with the Neo-Nazi's and white supremist KKK.
Read what the founding fathers said. "We will either hang together or we will all hang separately." If you hate the idea of the UNITED Sates of America, what kind of government are you proposing to take its place? A Fascist Dictatorship?
Cops: Men shouted 'Heil Hitler' before firing shot after Spencer speech
Your basing that on what?
So you never vote because somebody from the government is going to count the ballots?
Neither do the right wing Republicans.
The government as originally proposed by the founders. A coalition of sovereign states banded together for the common defense to insure continued liberty. That ended with the Civil War. We need to get back to it. We need to revitalize the 10th amendment.
Really. Your arrogant presumption to the contrary not withstanding.Oh really...
Now There is a plan!
good luck with that...NY banding with Alabama; Texas with California blah blah blah.
That’s right... pattern myself after you
I don't think the vast majority of the American electorate is stupid. You seem to think you are superior to them. I disagree.
Duh! They already are. That is why it is called the UNITED States of America.
I don’t care
Yea right
Ben Franklin didn't say "We will either hang together or we will all hang separately", what he said was "we must, indeed, all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately".
They must hang together because they needed to form the union, because if they didn't, they would be tried for treason if they failed.

Yes, give the sovereign states back their powers as per the 10th Amendment and keep the Federal entity to their enumerated duties. The only way to return to such things would be an Article V convention to right all the wrongs that have occured in the last 200 plus years.
I agree with everything except a convention. Once they start tampering with the Constitution who knows what damage they will do.
Instead we need SCOTUS rulings that enforce the Constitution as written.
For somebody who thinks he is smarter than most of middle America I would expect more in-depth responses than:
Oh really...
Yea right
Trump didn't either. He stated a fact, both sides were at fault.
