That would give California 4 senators.
never happen. shiiteholes take everything down with them... build the wall around it all.
In the case of ‘New California’, it would likely end up with two GOP guys (I do agree, it might create a RINO or two).
The bigger question here is the attitude around the US states where regions are deeply divided.
Take Oregon. The real Democratic base is the northwest part of the state (around Medford and Portland). The entire eastern part of the state and south part along the coast? Mostly leaning toward the GOP. The real population around the state though...is mostly centered on Portland and four other significant cities....which are urban-magnets for Democrats. The state really ought to be into at least two states...maybe even three.
Take Virginia. If you took away voting numbers in Fairfax, Arlington, and Alexandria...the state would typically be around 60-percent GOP, with Norfolks and Richmond being the Democratic base in this scenario. But the bulk of the rest of the state is solid GOP.
It would serve us all well to redefine the mission and purpose of Senators....allowing only one per state, and allowing states to split into two or more states, if voted upon.
Bingo...and that means that 49 other states will oppose this proposal.
Give “old” California back to Mexico and put it behind Trump’s wall.
