    California, Florida, and Texas seem like prime candidate states where the oligarchs might decide that they can turn them into their personal fiefdoms in the near future.

      And Cali is the strongest of the 3 because it actually has the resources to support itself. Florida’s an appendage that’s one bad hurricane season from being wiped off the map. Texas is hot and dry and getting hotter and drier, I don’t know that they have enough water or arable land to make it on their own.

      Especially Texas. They are effectively the nuclear weapons power within the US, as that’s where the Pantex facility is.

      North Dakota is sprinting towards this with an eye towards climate change (see actions of Burgum and Gates)

      I think Florida and Texas would annex Alabama. Mississippi, and Louisiana, at minimum.

          I think the annexation of the Gulf states by FL and TX with have racial motivations, not merely that the Gulf states will also secede
