Depends on what you do with the cities. The Central Valley doesn’t want to be its own state.

The State of Jefferson would have started this process, but WWII got in the way. Except that was all predicated on being super racist.

I think if you get a legit Cal3 proposal, you might end up with a Cal4 where they pull from the six-state version where “Silicon Valley” is its own state shows up so that there can be some technopolis with custom laws and insane cost of living. Essentially, turning SFO into another Manhattan.

I would never move back to CA as it is, but if there was a breakup, I might actually go for it.

Depends on if you’re a MAGA faithful or not. Because those are the folks that expect now that their votes mean nothing to him, to somehow still be important.
