may i suggest a simpler solution that would achieve much the same result....let all the MAGA enthusiasts, and others who oppose democracy move to west texass.  if they start now, they might get there in time to see james talarico - a democrat - be elected junior senator!

This makes sense. That whole family fun center fiasco was a costly way to gain experience. Except for those who financially benefitted from that.
