This election witnessed a bizarre and unprecedented turn of events, in which slightly less than half of voters favored one candidate, while slightly more than half of voters favored another. As a result, I feel I speak for all states when I say that the United States needs to secede from the United States of America. But I especially speak for Montana. I've never been, nor do I have family or friends, but those guys really want to secede.
Also, solvency. The fifty states in the union, combined, are the 7th largest economy in the world. So there's that.
In conclusion, TSA, FDA, NCAA, secede secede secede.
