Every time those "fixed it" maps come out where it draws US states as part of Canada they always leave out CO and NM but include a couple of trump voting states. Due to that I've felt we should strike out on our own. We could control the flow of the Colorado River as leverage.

Eh, invade Montana, Wyoming, and Idaho and occupy them.

Those people will go full Talliban of course, but they have been trying to do that for decades anyway so we would just be fulfilling their dreams. Until they realize that ammo and gas are actually hard to find when you're an occupied territory. But let's not let their dreams be dreams.
