It makes the problem worse to migrate. Blue state governments then become unbeatable super majorities.

Conservatives need to think about taking ground back, one precinct at a time. Play Obama’s community organizer game.

Especially California.

I think we'll solve about 90% of our problems if we would grant independence to California. Around 40 million people and 55 electoral votes. The Democrats won't be able to get them elsewhere.

It's a dilemma.

One the one hand, when the productive class flees for more hospitable states, those who remain, despite becoming an unbeatable majority, also become an unsurmountable drag on the state.

In the past, Democrats in blue states relied on taking Congress and the White House so they can raid the national treasury to bail out their failed states. Now, majorities have become so slim that they have to rely on the corrupt compliance of the minority party to get their agendas passed.

Age attrition will clean up the latter case, but we may have to wait for the inner rot of blue cities to work its way to the core before we can begin thinking about retaking them. It's probably best to focus on building stronger representation in Congress so we no longer have Vichy Republicans that keep propping up the failed Democrat states.
