It would be the last thing the Trump admin does. The US would quickly succumb to civil war as every member of NATO and Canada's military partners swarm to defend it and the rebelling US states. The US, as it stands today, would effectively be destroyed.

I don't think the world is that altruistic.

Americans tend to do what they're told, so I wouldn't expect anything other than thoughts and prayers from within the US. Sure, there would be a Million Maple March in Washington, but nothing would come of it.

I doubt our NATO partners would rush to put their soldiers in harms way. The US is a nuclear superpower that says it's their ally - that's both a carrot and stick getting them to sit out. I don't think they've even offered much condemnation of Trump's "51st state" comments.
