Because what you are proposing can inadvertently cause the rise of one party states. If we divide the country by conservatism and liberalism well unless you ban one or the other a red state can turn blue and vice versa.

I'm pretty sure the Dems would splinter into progressive and centrist parties if they had their own states.
By red states I mean the former confederate states, even if it was the Dems who were the confederates back then, as they've switched sides now, but the role of geography in politics remains more similar, except with a diminished ability to recognize when they are losing. If they win for real next time, that's as much a threat to blue states as to red states. I'd rather cut the latter loose if it means the former can be saved. I would hope it can be done in a way that allows red state refugees into blue states, but better to save one crop of people than to try to save everyone and wind up saving no one. :/

"Red state" and "blue state" are a misnomer, Democrats are concentrated in the cities while Republicans are spread out in rural areas. How do you propose partition like that? Wall off the cities and form an archipelago of a nation?

Or just let "red state refugees" move from the red states' cities into blue states so that the red states can try to run their own cities themselves and everyone else can have a separate country.

With the caveat I'm vaguely still open-minded about this in general despite my personal misgivings with you: How does not not wreck farming and trade while this happens? Also what makes you think red and blue wouldn't just get pissed at mutual denial of people's refugee status and accusations of corruption?

Okay, I guess that makes sense although I can’t see it ending well. But you do realize not all of the former confederacy has Republican majorities right?
