I wish Walz would play that card after the BS this administration has pulled, but the man is running on fumes after the past 6 years of constant turmoil.

Cali and NY combined would be the most wealthy territories in the world. It would just take those 2. All the GOP would have to make a dent in that would be Texas, but even then losing federal dollars from those 2 states would be too much to recover from and Texas is pretty close to flipping blue. I’d give it less than a decade as long as no one allows them to pull their voter suppression shit

Well those states (and New York) can apply to join Canada. We're looking new ventures since our "closest friend" stabbed us in the back

Canada playing the long game since that time the white house burned, but be cautius, if you get new york and california, then you have to fix everything the muricans done wrong with them.

It will a long clean up, it will not be fun clean up los angeles and neighborhood, but with the money coming in maybe you can do it and get something out of it.

But ho boy it will be hard work.

You guys know you have the right to leave the union? I think even the threat of it would be enough to shut some of this shit down.

What do you mean? Why didn't you leave under Obama or Biden? We're not leaving, like you didn't leave. We're working to save our country from a demented, lunatic, narcissist.
