OK - if they want to play this game, what would happen if the blue states withheld taxes from the fascist regime of The Felon and Thief? The 22 blue states provide 60% of the taxes received by the government. What would happen if that were to stop?

Federal revenue from blue states supports red states. So this business of w/holding federal spending from blue states is going to get old fast.
