Alarming though the prospect is, I think the American system would be pretty good at preventing this sort of thing. And anyway, it won’t happen.

@MartinII What about Northam in Virginia?

@4meAndyou Ah, I was thinking about a possible leftwing President or Congress. I don’t know enough about state politics to comment.

@MartinII States rights allow counties to secede from their own states, after going through appropriate legal procedures. They may also secede from the Union itself, just the UK did with Brexit, for reasons like lack of representation or abrogation of rights.

@4meAndyou But that has never happened since the Civil War, I think?

@MartinII Not secession from the Union itself...but the Dems may see that happen if they do away with the electoral college. Our states, at the inception of this Union, were worried about the possibility of being overwhelmed by the sheer numbers of the populations on east and west coasts, which is why the electoral college was created.

However, the secession of several counties in Virginia has already begun. They plan to rejoin West Virginia.
