Given America's past 50 years of history, which is more likely to occur first :

a) the gaining of a new state

b) the loss of a current state
>>
>>1851757
Puerto Rico will join at the same moment where Hawaii leaves. Gotta keep the stars in order
>>
>>1851757
If Hillary Clinton wins she would fuck up diplomacy and Putin could annex Alaska.
>>
>>1851763
why would Hawaii leave?
>>
>>1851763
Hawaii is too dependent on the American economy to leave
>>
California might split if that counts.
>>
>>1851800
Lol no they won't, no more than Texas or Alaska will split.
>>
>>1851808

Texas has a relatively large secession movement
>>
>>1851868
Yeah, and they still will never leave.
>>
>>1851874

Don't know man, that's what people were saying back in 1860 too...
>>
>>1851757
We will see Puerto Rico become a state before we see the Dakotas unified
>>
>>1851910

>Dakotas unified

Why? To what end?
>>
>>1851757
Equally zero. Puerto Rico would be the 51st state, but that's been the case for decades and they never pull the trigger.
>>
>>1851868

Good luck.
>>
>>1851757
There is some potential new states.
Puerto Rico
Washington DC
The splitting of New York from the state to form a city state.
A potential split in North and South California
>>
>>1851757
Gainz. In the form of Puerto Rico.

please finish the connection with alaska. canada sucks so much. please save us based washington state.

Bruh, the Alaska/Canada Border is one of the comfiest places on the face of the earth.

Why would you want to ruin that with Washington's liberals?
>>
Neither, we're too comfy now a-days to advance any sort of large political change.
>>
>>1852359
canada sucks bro. a bc and yukon under control of washington state and alaska would be comfy
>>
50 is the final number. No territory wants to be a state because of the taxes, and secession is illegal and punishable by Shermaning.

USA annexing Canada when?
>>

Washington DC is not a state on purpose, because it's where the federal government is headquartered.

>>1852506

Puerto Rico wants to be a state real bad, the last couple of popular referendums in PR had a majority of people who want to be a state.. congress does not want Puerto Rico to be a atate because it would mean spending tons of money turning it into a place that isn't a complete shithole (meets federal regulations for all kinds of safety and welfare shit). It's basically a small version of the North Korea problem.

Youre not a very nice person.

Go away /pol/

>>1851757
Texas is the most capable of the states to leave followed by California

Almost all states are unlikely to secede for any reason.
>>
>>1852532
They're just lads out having some fun. Top comfey
>>
>>1851880
And any attempt to do so was a miserable failure then. Also, it was pretty well known that tensions between the south and north were high, Lincoln practically ran on 'preserving the union'.
>>
>>1852523
Also I'd imagine Puerto Rico would vote primarily Democrat, so Republicans are probably very opposed to it.

Florida splits.

>>1851757
Neither. We're too autistically in love with the 50 state number that we just won't drop it
>>
>>1852191

If NYC split off from upstate New York we would take Long Island with us, so it wouldn't really be a city state as much as a very small state mostly dominated by one city.

I hope it happens one day, even though I know it won't. I hate those pricks in Albany who hold NYC back and mooch off of all our tax dollars. I wish we could just cut them loose and let them turn into the rust belt shithole that they really are.
>>
>>1854662
t-there's nothing wrong with the Rust Belt

>>1854664
You're shit. Gib independence.

t. Long Islander.

Why not? "Canada" at the time was just a tiny region much like the rest of the colonies. If all of Canada had joined as a 14th state it would've had a smaller population than the other 13 colonies.
>>
>>1855777
>cue finally letting Albania in to even it out
>>
>>1856552
Canada was thoroughly British-aligned and was a popular destination for fleeing American loyalists. American armies were surprised that they met resistance in the war of 1812 instead of being welcomed as liberators.

Canada and Mexico desu. Would make it 95 with the addition of Puerto Rico. Maybe take Centroamerica and make it an even 100.

Large like only a few thousand folks ... most of whom I would not trust to mow my lawn. I've met some of those folks and most are flakes.

Unlikely any sate would be allowed to split now. DNC would be against any possible splits but all the proposed splits would probably give traditional Republican interests another Senator and at least two Reps

It'll look great.

New York can most certainly not join. Fuck them, they can take Fairfield county with them too.
