    Can we get 25 million volunteers to move proportionally to red states for the next few years?

      Half a million movers per month would both wreck California and rural states real quick.

        Also Cali would turn red quickly. I don’t think our voter numbers show the true story. There are a lot of MAGA crazies in CA. I just doubt they bother voting atm because they know it’s pointless.

          That’s a bit incomplete.

          Those who stay back would find cities, economy, infrastructure and culture crumbling and uprooted. Ghost town culture doesn’t exactly inspire hope and confidence.

          On the other hand, there would be somewhat of a plague syndrome benefitting those.

        They want to pass a law that says you have to get the majority of the majority of counties and they have 256 mostly small rural counties some with less than 100 people in them.

        I did the math and you could hold the majority of the majority with as little as 4% of the vote.

        If you try to be cute and take over a bunch of small counties the law could just be further amended or you know they could just not find your bodies.
