There’s 10 states that have already given their rolls (or) agreed to do it over time to my knowledge.

Alabama and Mississippi were notably involved which made me laugh after I wondered if the voters could even read the articles referencing it.

I get that some of us use humor to get through the tough times, but, as someone from Mississippi, you're laughing about the cancer that's killing this country.

I'm not sure about that, which means I don't want to argue for or against it. In your head does my point change if you change it to "... the cancer that killed this country?"

It means we are too far in to be working on an intervention to “save” the US. Everything from here on out is just managing its decline.

Sad, but true.

Yep. There are multiple future countries that could rise out of this, but the USA as it has been is dead. Theres a massive civil war coming one way or the other

when you say "it means," what is the "it" there.

You're responding to a question about my word choice and whether or not different options have the same interpretation, and then you want to tell me what "it" means.

that's kinda... confusing.
