Probably a MAGA reference in the name. Great, now instead of fixing the partisan debate, all our state are going to splinter. Awesome precedent (could be done for either party's advantage, really)

They just want to slash regulations, ban abortion, and arrest stoners again

Lol, now conservatives want to complain about representation? Missouri's legislature doesn't represent it's urban centers in the slightest. Should all of Saint Louis and it's counties join Illinois and Kansas City join Kansas?

Every time this topic appears I just gotta emphasise that these are largely non-contiguous counties, the OR and ID legislatures would have to agree, then congress would have to agree. It will literally never happen

Oh yeah, it's genuinely absurd and extremely unlikely to happen. That doesn't mean it's not mind blowingly fucking stupid and hypocritical.

Don't know why this is getting so much coverage.

Would need the consent of Oregon, Idaho, AND the federal government to actually happen, and the chances of that are exactly zero.

It's just a few thousand angry yokels agitating about stupid shit. May they forever remain a powerless minority.

Looks like not all the counties border Idaho so how would that work? A piece of Idaho would be inside Oregon?

Yes but for the 10th time does Idaho want them?

Seems like conservatives hate being in the minority. I feel like there's irony there somewhere.
