Question

What if red states and blue states became independent

Answer 1

Explanation:

First of all, let’s talk about swing states.

Swing states in this election were huge. There’s lot of them and lots of room here. Pennsylvania and Ohio were big. Wisconsin and Michigan were too. As was Florida and Virginia. These states were pretty close and deserve to be split up, so they will be. As will others.

Red’s power and Blue’s power are severely limited. Industry in blue struggles, as does agriculture in the south due to harsh climate. Both nations slowly fall apart til after about 50 years, when both fall apart and are taken over by their neighbors and the occasional rebel group

this is not a good situation for either group. Blue States would be more vulnerable, while Red States would struggle to soar. All industries would lose the edge that so much built-in talent and market share provide. The greatnesses of each would be blunted, while the worst tendencies of each would go unchecked. Neither would be the world's superpower, hurting both economies and adding to costs. And a substantial geopolitical realignment could mean trouble for everyone, not just Americans.

Answer 2

Explanation:

All states contain both liberal and conservative voters (i.e. they are "purple") and only appear blue/red on the electoral map because of the winner-take-all system used by most states in the Electoral College. ·
