In the non realistic fever dream of States seceding I always felt Colorado would get shafted since it struck in the middle of the US.

  • California, Oregon, Washington are fine since they have the Pacific Ocean.
  • Minnesota, Michigan, maybe Wisconsin all share a border with Canada to the North.
  • New York and many of the North East States either border Canada or the Atlantic Ocean.
  • Colorado borders all Deep Red States and New Mexico.

Three of those red states heavily rely on the Colorado River, maybe we turn off the faucet. I know it's not realistic but still

AZ is a blue state once we deport all the retirees back to the Midwest.
