Which is why a filibuster-proof Republican Senate majority is likely to lead to an immediate Second Civil War, which could result in individual states as well as the Union breaking up; e.g., Philadelphians would want no part of joining Red America, and would be geographically coterminous with "East Pakistan" - the West Coast forming a "West Pakistan" - and that's exactly how Fox News etc. would calumniously characterize it (so as to link the Blues with our Muslim foreign adversary).
And "Bleeding Arizona" could become a 21st Century "Bleeding Kansas," as residents of the neighboring blue states pour into Arizona to make "West Pakistan" coterminous (even seizing control of southern Arizona would be good enough, and that's the most liberal part of the state as matters stand).
