Then the republicans would simply move, just like how when Texas was talking succession a lot of democrats were planning to move if it happened.

Nah man, Texas Democrats just hadn't had time to catch up on their HBO backlog and were tired of the Republicans spoiling it. California has a more spoiler-conscious culture.

Simply move?

6 million voters would abandon their homes and farmlands instead of fighting back?

Texas democrats are urban people. Uprooting an urban job and life is a totally different ballgame compared to the rural folks involved in agriculture.

Good job, you've proven that you're smarter than me. Now what?

Do you feel better? Does it solve your problems? Did it help you in any way?
