Jokes aside, as an European watching from the outside the US seems extremely segregated atm and no good can come out of this. Even if I don't agree with laws that prohibit lgbt-people from living their lives or women to get an abortion this feels a bit childish.
I've been in California and I have also been in Utah which seems on other side of the spectrum. While I am not religious, Utah seemed a lot nicer to me with less societal problems.
I think the different states and their views on the world could probably learn a lot from each other.
