Looking at this map, I guess one question immediately jumps out: what the fuck is this shit?

Idaho and Utah are invading Wyoming, assuming Colorado's attack on Utah fails.  The whole west coast is heading out to sea, as is Florida and the southern part of Texas.  The northeast is fleeing to Canada and the rest of the country is a mess.

The wrong kind of map to display this data set.

Am I really seeing that we have a Languishite who is just now discovering that the US government contains checks and balances and that checks on a branch's power are WAD?  :huh:


It seems churlish to expect people from other countries to have a robust knowledge of US civics.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

I expect some disgraceful shenangians for the history books until January. But probably mostly outright corruption and indecency and nothing dangerous anymore.

Sure, but most foreign Languishites seem to eat that shit up.

With countries around the world congratulating Biden, Trump is probably again reminded that once more he managed to bully his way into a position where he was never fully accepted by his peers.

Yeah. This is the thing with his psychology - even after winning the Presidency as an outsider he never felt like he'd made it, he was still needy and still insecure. And now he's been rejected. It's extraordinary.

Edit: And it is, of course, very rare for an elected President to be kicked out after one term.
