MTG has announced that America needs a “national divorce.” By that, she has made it clear she is not calling for secession; she simply wants a dramatic rollback of the powers of the federal government to permit the red states to be governed exclusively in the interests of conservative white Christians. In effect, she is calling for the repeal of the Constitution, and the return of the Articles of Confederation. Now, that’s old school!
How could this be accomplished? What would MTG’s America look like? What challenges would she face? I will be addressing these questions throughout the week.
