But I think a few other states might want to be included in Canada. 😀🇨🇦🍁

Want to secede and merge with Idaho. Give them what they want before the rest of us become Canadian.

My wife and I are both children of Brit immigrants so we're accustomed to drinking a lot of tea. We could easily learn t say "Eh?" at the end of every statement, pretend to understand and say we love Ice Hockey.

When we moved here from California 30+ years ago I planted a sapling that I could carry in one hand in our backyard. It now shades the whold back yard and the back of our 2 story house. It's a giant wide spread Maple.

If Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin get to be a part despite inflicting Trump on us twice then Nm, Co, and Va deserve to be a part of the new Canada too.

Should also include Nevada despite destroying their record this time by joining up with Mi, Wi, and Pa.

are not good enough for the pure blue states. Ooops I forgot there are red pockets in the blue states.

Answer this for me... Are MAGAS in blue states more worthy than the liberals in red states to be included in your map.

I think this might very well be what people mean by Democrats dismissing people.

IOW F-off with your divisive BS.

I am so happy that my life can provide you with entertainment. For a minute there, I thought you were merely considered liberals in red states deserve the mocking and ridicule your OP broad brushed them with. That is so much better.

I think maybe you are over-reacting a bit to something that was meant to be light-hearted. I take the plight of liberals in red states pretty seriously, but this thread was really not about that and was not meant to be. There was no mocking or ridicule of them at all in the OP. It is a straw man argument.

Now let me explain something to you.



Almost daily there are OP's here about how red states need to be kicked out of the USA ...

I don't think where liberals live should be a joke to people who are supposed to be on the same side.

Get it yet? People whose support Dems need, get pushed away with this type of "joking." I find I come here less and less nowadays. Getting sick of this "fun" and all the people who laugh over it.

But thanks for letting me know that I was over-reacting, you were just joking. it makes it all better now.
