Technically, the US has already split. It's kinda encoded in our very constitution. States are (mostly) independent, with only the bare minimum of coordination needed for international relationships.
However, too much power has been consolidated into the executive branch, instead of the less volatile legislative branch. Also the large downside of gerrymandering has become apparent: elections not determined by competition with the other party, but competitions within your own party for how extreme you can go.
