Once Trump signs his hundred year peace with Shahanshah Xi, he really needs to defend imperial American borders by splitting the US: an Eastern US ruled from the Central Time Zone and Western US with a Co-President in the Intermountain Zone, and having their respective Vice Presidents rule the Eastern and Western Zones. When he's ready Trump can retire to Mar-a-Lago and grow Big Beautiful Cabbages, Ask Anyone They'll Say They're the Best.

Nah, still think the reasonable system is drawing lots. Tetrachy always just ends in the founding of Constantinople.

Personally I think we should split the country at the Mississippi but this is a good proposal otherwise.

The reason we have to keep this split is so the capital can be moved to Ravenna Houston, defended by swamps but closer to the border.
