California can’t survive intact without the Colorado river, so you need to convince at least NV, AZ, UT, and probably CO to come too. If California left but Nevada was still part of Trumplandia one of the first things they would do is shut off all outflow from the Hoover Dam.

    Yeah, thats a great example of where you run into the differences between 'Cascadia' as a bioregion, defined primarily by watershed networks, snd 'Cascadia' as a maybe possible legal/political entity, based on current existing borders. IIRC, the bioregion Cascadia basically only extends down to bits of Northern California... but the political reality doesn't match well with this at all. Perhaps state delegates could all send couriers to Goodsprings for a conference, to hash out the details, lol. Cascadia vs Greater California vs ... New Zion/Deseret?

    Yeah, water distribution would be weaponized.

    At 32% approval, and blatant election rigging plans, a constitutional convention should occur instead of planning around impeachment for last 2 years of term.
