A very large number of Americans look at succession from the Union as a viable option. This piece from the Von Mises Institute shows how many. Basically 40% of those polled to one degree or another! They see a very divided nation, and so they figure "let's just divide". Those in power screech about "treason" while continually dismissing legitimate concerns about their own policies and actions and how they cause division.
Localism is the reasonable middle ground which lets us keep the advantages of one large nation without the disadvantages of all the rules being made in a distant city which does not share the values of the heartland.
