So they know that Texas doesn't have a GDP high enough to even run all their red catastrophies, right? I'm kidding, I know they don't know. They probably also don't know that CA would be the third largest super power if they ever let us go. Which they won't. At all.
Californians are in an abusive relationship. Blamed for everything and not allowed to leave
I don’t know, they are certainly close to dumb enough to sign off on it. Or, you know, we can just do it and ignore the rules since they are all so fond of that now.
The rest of the US doesn't deserve California's economy
I mean... as long as California takes Colorado and New Mexico with it, I see no real issues with that. We get the economy, the nature, and the nukes.
We'll bring along Oregon and Washington, at least the west halves, and call the country the Collective of American States.
Yep. Best Christmas present they could offer.
Do it. Push her harder.
I'm literally moving to a blue state. The one good idea she had I beat her to it. Peace idiots.
What's the split on ports in blue states vs red states?
Depends on how long hurricane season is. And how much more powerful hurricanes will get.
that's not… usually what you do win you win. so like… honestly… okay, kick me out, let me be governed by a saner government. also DC is between two blue state so good luck evacuating back to your conservative safe space, dumbass
.......yeah, ok. Sounds good.
moves to California
I’ve got “Hotel California” and “San Francisco” battling it out in my head now.
How about Going to California?

It'll never happen. US Military would never willingly split itself apart, let itself get split apart, or let another nation that it's not allied with have any sort of Army on its equivalent. The 50 states are here to stay.
Never say never. The domestic terrorists/agents of Putin are aching for an actual shooting civil war.
Even a peaceful division of the US would be something they would seriously benefit from. The US permanently divided against itself, each side easy to manipulate into a military conflict against the other. We would have nukes pointed at each other within a decade. It would be like the splitting of India and Pakistan, along with all the accompanying human rights atrocities.
Sherman should have kept burning the traitors.
Dude should have gone west after Savannah, Atlanta has its shit mostly together now

It's expansive here in the places you may want to live, but seriously... It's worth it. There's also a lot of cheap places that aren't as ideal.
Canada has given the world some of the worst extremists, racists, etc. (Proud Boys being one of the more recent horrible things we've exported)
There's a group that popped up during the convoy called diagolon. They posted this way back which seems like how things would work (a path from Russia to Florida)
They claim it's a joke, but isn't it always just a joke.
Pretty sure BC, VA, and CO are not going along with that.
Once the first (new) secession happens, the rest will flee for one reason. The Republicans are trying to ban porn.
Diagolon sounds too much like where Harry bought his wizard supplies.
Why do these idiots always pick names that just make them sound even dumber?
Why do these idiots always pick names that just make them sound even dumber?
I mean, "Proud Boys" are obsessed with men hanging out with manly men because something something bros and not being gay.
Then named themselves after a show tune?
Because they are dumb and uncreative
California would do so much better on its own I feel like
Blue states pay more in taxes than they receive, and vice versa with red states. We are literally funding them dragging us all backwards.
5th largest economy on the planet by itself.
Russia has a smaller economy. Go ahead. Make it without us. Dumb fucks.
Can… can Washington come? The western half at least?
Predictable. The donvict-humpers supposedly "win", and then get even MORE angry. Why so angry?
I suspect it's because for this brief period of time, anyway, it's hard for them to avoid just how HATED they and their precious golden donvict truly are. They thought they'd "win" and all the normal Americans around them would just disappear. And yet, Karens like Green continue to get confronted by normal people.
The donvict-humpers supposedly “win”, and then get even MORE angry. Why so angry?
Because we've stolen their martyrdom from them by losing.
This is outrageously anecdotal but the trumpers I know were all grins on the day after until they realized we weren’t gonna just get over this and they just labeled themselves. They seem pissy now, and one in my office in particular that used to chat with me about sports is really broken up I don’t want to anymore
Why so angry? It's all they know..
Since the House and EC are capped, we should take the excess population that is not being represented and move it around.
please?
Don’t threaten me with a good time…
[Wearing the US flag as a t-shirt and a pair of pajamas]: "I believe in the UNITED States of America!!!! ..... but I want a divorce"
I'm hoping Cascadia finally gets realized. I want to uninvite Idaho, though.
There should be a bot that searches out MarjorieTG posts and auto-comments ”What a fucking idiot.”
Nah. Make it look like the call is coming from inside the house.
"Typical hysterical woman. Leave running the country to men, sweetie."
Is that a promise? I'm here for it
Can we just give Florida and Texas to Mexico? Split CA into like 3-5 states. Uncap the house. Voila, country is fixed... somewhat fixed.
I don't think Mexico wants either of those two
Since when has the US ever cared
As a southern-ish Texan, I love this idea. Granted, the border-city cartels will probably murder the shit out of me, but I could briefly celebrate Mexican heritage without feeling like a poseur.
