You are the emperor of the United States and you can choose to remove three states. Which states do you get rid of?

California - Democrats would never win another Presidential election.

Vermont - Go join Canada if you like socialism so much.

New Jersey - Nobody likes New Jersey.

Everything said in good fun, of course! Smiley

Ohio goes for Trump once and you're already comparing it to the Deep South.

Delaware - tax haven, bank capital, awful roads, historically significant but no longer has reason to be a state

North Dakota - merge it with South Dakota

Alabama - fck Jeff Sessions and double fck Roy Moore

Noooooo. Separate reasons why Ohio is on the same list as Bama and Mississippi. If Ohio had gone for Hillary, I would have tipped my cap, said thank you very much, and still hated it as my least favorite state (for non political reasons).

Naturally, I want to kick out as many Safe D votes as possible:

-California: Independent nation
-New York: Give to Canada
-Washington: Give to Canada

(Illinois might make more sense from a purely partisan perspective, but it might not be sustainable to have that crazy of an enclave)

From a cultural perspective, I would probably kick out the three states that form the Pacific Coast but give the interiors of those states to their neighboring states to save those people from whatever crazy stuff The People's Republic of California and Ecotopia would decide to do.

Florida
Merge the Dakotas
Ohio

Republicans will actually need to win the popular vote now to have any chance at winning. Also no more being held hostage to DWS or general FL Dem incompetence.

Remove them from the US forcing them to become independent counties, or merge them into other states?

If it is merger,  RI should be merged into CT, Delaware into MD, and VT and NH should be merged.

It would be more practical, for communication and infrastructural reasons, to merge DE with PA.

That is not relevant. What is relevant is the beauty of the state map. Having PA spike down like that, jammed between NJ and MD, would be an excrescence. It would be akin to the Xmas holiday. No, just no.

Vermont just elected a Republican governor, LOL.  Anyway:

1) Merge the Dakotas to make one Dakota
2) Reunite the Virginias to heal ourselves from the Civil War and possibly piss off Ice Spear
3) Combine Mississippi and Alabama
