"This could be an option, but it would be a pretty sad one. It would hurt poor people in red states that don't have anything to do with any of this. That is why we don't just cut off states that don't do what we want when we are in charge."

This is true but unfortunately they may end up being causalities of war since the red states are using them as human shields. We may not have a choice anymore since we're running out of non-violent option to get the message across. Hitting people in the wallet tends to get the point across and it's better then actual fighting. War is hell, Robyn - we may have to accept we cannot protect them if they're outside blue state borders. We welcome them, we offer relocation services and run an underground railroad if we have to but we can't take a decent option off the table because not everyone in red states is a Cult45er.
