The logical next step for the US is to allow for each State to function as Liberal or Conservative. Separate laws divided on controversial issues, separate bureaucracies to manage them, separate budgets to pay for them. The alternative is that the US continue to implode over a handful of issues, mainly abortion, gun-control, and gay rights.

Then bind it all up for a few decades with union string pop it in the pressure cooker, keep the lid on tight and claim it's all good in the pot.
