So interestingly....talking about regionalizing the country

[Aristus]

6. I predict the Republic of Cascadia will be established within a decade or two.

There is no consensus as to what regions will make up the progressive Pacific Northwest Republic. A minimal construct might come by erasing the borderline between the states of Washington and Oregon.

Others see Northern California being added to the RoC; although I haven't seen anyone's prediction as to how the rest of California will react.

Broad, generous visions of the RoC include some or all of the Canadian Province of British Columbia; again no one cares to postulate how Canada might feel about losing one of its wealthiest provinces.

Anyway, as a haven for liberals and progressives, such a national breach is likely to result from an ultra-right-wing Trump administration.

Deep-red Eastern Washington would be better off casting their lot with Idaho, haven for white supramacists from all over the West coast.
