    The house part doesn't work though. Population determines representation, so if lots of people leave, the red states get less votes in the house. Granted, we will have to wait for the next census, which should be really interesting to read about.

      I'd say, based on the political atmosphere and outlook of the next 7-8 years, that the next census is too far off to depend on. Imagine if it's unbearable enough to send a significant portion of people out of any swing states, and that could clinch 2028. I doubt the insanity will have lessened in time for project2029…
