I doubt a proper "Balkanization" would ever happen, too much capital tied up in the US Federal Govt for the hate-bourgeois to ever let that happen.
What you're probably gonna see is states just slowly drifting way legally and economically from Washington. Never fully succeeding, but just disregarding the Federal government with increasing blatancy, beefing up their State Police forces to the point they almost function as a local small military, taking more direct control over their local natural resources, maybe even regulating travel and trade between themselves and other States. The Kingdom will stay intact but the Provincial Lords will gain increasing autonomy.
This will make Red States hell on Earth for a lot of people, but while I don't have any faith in the Dems, more left leaning states may actually become more progressive in response.
