Man, everyone says Texas, but maybe that'd be a disadvantage. If everyone is worried about Texas, it makes it hard for Texas to do work.

Michigan could win bc nobody would attack north and they'd jump in at the end

I think Michigan is really underrated in this. They have a very strong industrial base, access to food, trade with Canada. Not sure where they're getting their oil (Canada?) but other than that, could be a good option!

Over 40% of our crude oil imports come from Canada. Watch out for the northern states. Hard to invade, Great Lakes & rivers to import/export, border states w/ag +their own production. Population an issue until food supplies run low 4 other contenders. +gun owning hunters-

The winters there would be rough for most as well. Especially Michigan with all that lake effect.

But a wall is kind of pointless considering most of California is desert. And there are only four major interstates cutting thru the state (the 5, the 15, the 10 and 80), and two of those are thru desert. Plus the Vietnamese and Mexicans would tunnel the hell out of CA. 2/

But they would to that in Texas as well. I dunno. Texas could do well but they got a lot of ground to cover if they want to protect Midland, though offshore oil could be utilized. Although the Cajuns in Louisiana might have some to garble about that. 3/

California has hella military bases. Naval, SEAL, Army and Air Force. Not to mention Lawrence Livermore. Combine that with the UCs, Stanford and Caltech that’s a hell of a brain trust before Silicon Valley is even involved. PA has too many borders to defend, and most 7/

Of some of their population has divided loyalties (looking at you Pennsyltucky.) Plus Pittsburgh and Philly hate each other. Honestly, I’m thinking CA, TX or Appalachia. But CA and TX have resources and more natural defenses with less borders. 8/8

Great thread. Cali imports its electricity. TX is the obvious choice. PA, MI, and other industrial states which access to oil are interesting picks. Florida has no chance. NY is super dependent on whether or not they can hold the NY/NJ port.

Well. CA could recommission the Dolly Madison Monument Nuclear Plant. And I could see a treaty between CA, NV and CO materialize. CO would be purely defensive, and NV depends on CA for its economy. But that would tighten up CA water and power supply. I think TX might have its 1/

Hands full trying to defend against the Cajuns on its eastern border, who already have a sizeable force in Houston, along with New Mexico trying to take Midland shale, and a sizeable native population in OK that would try to take advantage of American chaos and possibly 2/
