California leaving the union, for whatever reason, would instantly trigger regional balkanizing because of several effects that directly derive from CA leaving:
  • losing any chance at the Senate
  • losing the House of Representatives (53 districts in CA)
  • permanently losing the Electoral College
  • losing the massive influx of funding from Californian taxes

With these stripped away, there wouldn't be any reason anymore for wealthy blue states like IL, NY, or WA to stay in the union and permanently subject to the whims of the ruling class from all the empty shithole red states in the West or the chudsvilles in the middle south. Without CA, the permanently-Republican-controlled federal government would strip-mine these blue states and distribute the loot to the rich and the red states. Why bother, why put up with that, when they massively outnumber them? They'd just separate from the federal government as well, and the remaining USA would become some amalgamation of the empty states (WY, MT, ND, SD) and the Southern states that are too poor and lacking in regional influence to really strike out on their own (AR, OK, TN, AL).

california seceding for anti-trump purposes would be very bad because the areas that contain the agricultural parts of the economy are majority chud, and the mountain passes between the coast and the farming areas are very easy to block.

The problem with that is there's a pretty big power and population difference between California and, say, Oklahoma

This difference is actually exactly the reason Newsom is even able to make noise about "nation-state" and "exporting"!

Would the Republic of NY and Republic of California be able to ally themselves with Canada for military protection, or would a Blue Army have to form

California can't take its ball and go home. What are Californians gonna do, repel the US military with their 5 round capacity rifles and kale rations?

CHUD Force versus the sovereign nation of California would make Grenada look like World War I.
