From WSJopinion: Portland’s antifa leftists may want to secede if President Trump wins re-election. The state’s rural inland would be happy to let them go, writes Dave Seminara.

Main Street: Joe Biden and Conor Lamb show a different face in Pennsylvania than in Washington. Image: Saul Loeb/AFP via Getty ImagesThis year’s protests in Portland and Bend, Ore., have many wondering how the Beaver State’s increasingly radicalized left will cope if President Trump is re-elected.

After the 2016 election, a group of Oregonians submitted a petition for a ballot measure asking voters to consider secession. It went nowhere, but this year could be different. A 2017 Zogby poll concluded that a plurality of Americans believe states have a right to secede, so perhaps the idea isn’t far-fetched.

opinion I doubt the rest of the country would mind. Do you think they could actually survive as an independent country?

opinion

opinion Awesome let concede. This country need to rid itself of treasonous racist like Antifa

opinion SCOTUS ruled unilateral secession unconstitutional in Texas v. White. Trump would be happy to enforce the law and lock up Portland's Antifa leftists. Alas, nothing in this far-fetched scenario will come to pass. They must find another reason to loot, burn and riot.

opinion Same with radical left from San Francisco. Done with supporting the Neo nazis with our tax dollars. Also cancelwsj

opinion Another bullsh!t Murdoch article.

opinion I think I’ll just shut down twitter. The right wing bullshit is off the charts today. Sad to see WSJ opinion constantly push garbage that their news team refutes.

opinion Good luck with that. Why would the US risk that? So CCP China and Russia can set up armed bases in the US's borders?

opinion Real question: who gives a rat’s ass?

opinion if T wins, not much will change in 4 yrs--or, he may do so much damage, republicans will be severely damaged--we must also consider the ability of congress to adjust his bad decisions.

opinion Hilarious

opinion Bye!

opinion This is so unlikely and not fiscally, diplomatically, or logistically possible that I’m embarrassed for the author

opinion BREAKING DSA AND CPUSA MAY BREAK AWAY FROM UNION AND FACE WRATH OF 49 STATES INCLUDING PUERTO RICO AND GLOBAL ALLIES THE 1 HOUR WAR

opinion If the country was divided in two between leftists and conservatives, which would end up North Korea and Sourh Korea in 50 years. I’m pretty sure I know the answer because one group lives off the fruit of others.

opinion Your opinion page is turning your paper into a rag.

opinion California should also bye 👋

opinion Now do Florida, shitbags.

opinion Thought they were an idea not a group. That’s according to Joe Biden.

opinion How embarrassing to have written this. Or to publish it as if it is meaningful. AHAHAHA

opinion

opinion Feds will take care of it & fast

opinion Antifa endorses Biden.

opinion You’re just not a serious paper anymore, are you?

opinion Stop using the word “antifa” because you clearly do not know what it means.

opinion Lol it’s hilarious that the rural parts of the country are oblivious to where the money for infrastructure and the military comes from. Hint, it’s not rural parts of the country.

opinion Better yet, arrest them all and jail them for life.

opinion COMMON POINT BETWEEN : fascism-republicanism-liberalism-nationalism-socialism-centrism-ecologism-capitalism-communism-authoritarianism-islamism-catholicism-trade unionism ... THE ABSOLUTE REFUSAL TO RESTORE DEMOCRACY TO THE PEOPLE Against -Isms : DIRECT Democracy

opinion Well let’s hope and pray hard that Trump loses. He is bad for what America needs now.

opinion We all want to secede if the obvious madman and his death cult aren't removed from power.

opinion Ok. Let The rural part pay for all its schools and hospitals, roads and infrastructure with their tax revenue and the cities pay for theirs with what they collect. Secession does not work for farmers.

opinion More like maga turd will riot when we banned theirs precious Ar15.

opinion The question is how fast could we build a wall around them?

opinion Scary... but true possibility.

opinion 90% of the country will want to follow in their footsteps.We don’t want to live in a fascist death cult.

opinion Rural areas for Idaho

opinion Damn, but the Wall Street Journal opinion page is some low-rent garbage lately

opinion

opinion This is some crap. You have this all backwards, do some real research

opinion The average American is tolerant of fascists. So they are reluctant to make anti-fascists a big force. Biden is a Democratic presidential candidate. Democrats are not anti-fascists. So they are reluctant to make anti-fascists a big force in the Democratic Party.

opinion Your first mistake was giving Dave a platform. Your second mistake was actually publishing this trash from a man who USED to live in Oregon & now resides in Florida. You're better than this. Maybe. I hope. Probably not. Sincerely, Lifetime Oregon Resident

opinion

opinion How would impoverished and poorly educated rural Oregon sustain an economy?

opinion The Wall Street Journal, understanders of leftism and antifascism

opinion They may want to leave the country....theyve onky gotten away with things because of election and media bias.....tick tock “ we aren’t organized”

opinion

opinion This is stupid trash from the WSJ

opinion Maybe they'll go all the way to Boise. Yeah. Idaho trembles...

opinion What a bunch of drivel

opinion Dave Seminara needs to stop huffing orange spray paint

opinion They need to start a Poolitzer committee , and hand out turds to the stupidest pieces of the year. For your consideration... ☝️

opinion Truly batshit

opinion What a bunch of bullshit. I don’t know who wrote this drivel, but they sure as hell haven’t been to Oregon.

opinion This kind of crap from WSJ opinion keeps me away as a subscriber. The actual news is excellent even if I might not agree. But this is just too whack. Hugs to your real reporters.

opinion Oregon is disgusting

opinion I live just outside Portland. This is garbage.

opinion Did this really get published? Holy shit!!! Does wsj have any serious opinion writers from Oregon? What a shitshow.

opinion I doubt whoever wrote this has even been to Oregon. I’ve lived in Portland over 20 years. This isn’t a thing.

opinion The Dems won't let safe votes go anywhere...count on it! ✌️🐸

opinion This is some real New York Post tier nonsense. It’s no wonder that, between Rupert Murdoch’s “News Corporation” acquiring your paper and one year later, half of your reporters — including all your best, senior reporters — had resigned.

opinion Yeah, we all saw how well they did with their Chaz/ Chop experiment....LOL

opinion Your newsroom has gone full insanity.

opinion This is patently false.

opinion Whoever is elected Oregon is headed for a crack up..fixed it for you. Any state run by weak, spineless losers is doomed..

opinion

opinion WELL GET READY. EVERYONE KNOWS THAT BIDEN/HARRIS HAS ALREADY LOST.

opinion Hahaha! Who's going to support Kentucky if the Oregon tax base stops paying?

opinion Oh come on WSJ. You’re better than this.

opinion lol and all the economic success with them lmao

opinion I'm from Arkansas. We tried to secede from the Union, once. That went over like a turd in the punch bowl. Better calm down.

opinion That’s not going to happen. This is such an over reaction.

opinion Please leave the USA and never return
