Oh man I'd love to see the civil unrest in the red States when they don't have us new Yorkers to give them their welfare payments.

Same from the west coast. If only cali oregon and washington could just be a west coast alliance separate from the rest of the problem states.
Accepting pleas from other comments here, Canada could get away with about this. And if they have the whole Pacific border, I'll also throw in Hawaii for free.
Having Arizona would a big L for Canada
Yeah, but how else do they get Colorado and New Mexico?

Hm. Went with cutting Washington and Oregon in half rather than full take. Pretty bold, but makes some sense.
Theres citylife washington and middle of nowhere washington. Occasionally middle of nowhere washington likes to throw fits in the city to support trump because they have nothing better to do
Though i guess that goes with cali as well. Lots of the non cities in the west coast just really love trump despite reaping all the state benefits that are very non-republican.

Y'all are going to regret taking Arizona. And, frankly, everything in California not in view of the coast.

Australia can come too. THE END!
Edit for the young ones: this is older than YouTube. It was a flash animation which was like a 2d game engine that ran in-game cutscenes in your web browser because that worked on slower internet speeds than video.
On behalf of California, we accept this proposal, and we accept Canada as our new federal government.
I also propose we officially refer to the remainder of the US as "Dumbfuckistan".
You move that gods damned line to include Michigan. Right fucking now.
Nope. Move to a real blue state if you wanna come. MI has betrayed us too many times. We don't need that in New Canada.
As a Michigander myself I fucking demand this also

Also: why not give Texas back to Mexico? It'd solve their obsession with "the border problem."
Because Mexico already has enough problems without having to deal with Texans?

I’m a Canadian and my dream is to one day fake my death and move to Minnesota where I can live in a small cabin away from anyone.
I wouldn't mind becoming a part of Canada so long as I still can get my financial aid for college. That, and we make it so anything coming in from Asia to the US has to either go to through us and we make them pay a little extra for it, or it be sent along another route.
Seriously, why isn't the Canadian government offering US states to join them? It would be the perfect response to Trumps bullshit.
You want Canada to submit to the US? Hey Oregon, California, and the others, wanna join us instead?
If California leaves the US it would fucking bankrupt the US.

ITT: People pretending that Oregon, Michigan, and probably Washington don't have a huge population of total fuckos.
Carve a line down the coasts. You don't want the whole state. And while you're at it, take the lakes and Chicago

Trump: Fine, they can have California for all I care.
Advisors: Sir, if California were its own country it would be the world's 6th largest economy.
Trump: How about if we just send all the Mexicans there with some beautiful rakes?
They are already here. Who the fuck you think does the farming?
5th largest
Wonderful news, everyone!

Solving the problem is dissolving all borders so the working class isn't divided into easily managed nation states.
michigan is obviously already canadian _
Poor Colorado
