Right, California could secede and collapse all the red states.

Either way we’re heading to something.

Same. Here in Massachusetts.

The blue states should secede. On our own or in some kind of partnership with Canada (United States of Canadia?). The red states are an anchor around our neck. We need to cut them loose.

I think New England and California could both secede while maintaining state lines. The rest of the country is too divided.

Oregon and Washington could form Cascadia

The eastern parts of both states would object. A lot of them already want to join Idaho.

Guess then the new country of Cascadia could redraw the borders of where California, Oregon, and Washington end.
