Canada would then be more US than Canadian at that point. US + Canada should keep United States of America name. The question is then what to call the other country. Kingdom of Christ? The 1950s?

I hate memes like this. Just fucking abandon people living in red states I guess. Just abandon purple states like my state. Fuck you too. If I could "just move" I would've.
People in red and purple states used their collective voting power to bring whatever is happening. You abandoned everyone by doing whatever you were doing when there was the time to do democratic choice, that was the time for righteous anger. Now it's too late.
I'm trying to understand this point. I'm in a purple state. By definition, that means that we're on the cusp of being either democratic EC votes or republican EC votes, as well as senators, governors and other state-level offices.
One of the (minor, but still there) reasons I haven't moved is because my vote actually matters here. If I moved to a solidly blue state, I would be removing a blue vote and making my current state more red.
One of my largest fears is that we continue sorting all the democratic voters into a small handful of blue states and lock in a permanent minority in government due to how we allocate EC votes and allot power in the Senate.
If anything, we need the people in deeply blue states to migrate out into other places and help push our country towards actual balance. If we took 2% of the 2024 democratic Californians (9m Kamala votes vs 6m Trump, 2% of the 9m is 180k, and we could easily do this several more times) and they moved to a low-population red state like Wyoming, Montana or North Dakota (spot checking 2024 vote counts), they would have no EC impact in California, but would have guaranteed Senate seats and EC votes. They would also have huge power in their new local and state government, since the total republican vote count majority was less than that tiny portion of California.
I know this is a simplistic way of looking at the numbers and not the humans, but blaming someone in a red/purple state for staying there is just not helping.

Do all the 19 year old Michiganders who drive to Toronto to drink mean nothing to you?
No, I dont like it .... my state should be Canadian as well.
"Hey Canada we're a bunch of pussies that want to run away because fascism is taking over. How'd you like to team up with us while you also deal with fascism?"
Why wouldn't Canada just take these states for themselves and deport all the cowardly Americans? You guys aren't going to fight, you'll just run away to yet another country.
