DC is part of the Northeast. DC itself is part of the liberal northeast which stretches from DC to Boston and makes up the Northeast corridor. Boston has the top universities like MIT and Harvard, NYC being known for finance, than you have DC with federal politics. Philly is not known for putting out anything compared to DC Boston or NYC. DC is culturally linked to the Northeast which dominate much of the decision making, cultural output, finance, banking and investment not for the entire country but world. Where should DC move to? Maybe a more central city that is not far from East Coast or West Coast such as Chicago maybe.

What a thoroughly stupid idea.

Should we move the capitol to "neutral" Rednecksville, MO to satisfy the delusions of some conservatives just because we happen to have a GOPer in office for this particular presidency?

Uh...yeah, keep dreaming.

Fair and balanced, the Demonic rats can have their offices in Sweden and get to pay 52% income tax like they've always wanted to do. Republicans can have their offices where they won't be attacked by Leftist Fasicsts like the guy that Bernie boy that attempted to assassinate Republican Congressmen.

DC is the Mid-Atlantic, not the Northeast.

And this is one of the dumbest threads on this board. A city in Texas is more neutral? How absurd.

How about we just ship Trump supporters to Russia, since they obviously support that country more than America and we can keep DC where it is.

Like I predicted before it happened, the Demonic rats sent their assassin to kill Republican Congressmen in the Swamp. No doubt their assassin would be granted protection in Sanctuary cities.

Let the Demonic rats set up in Detroit, Republicans should be someplace like Salt Lake or Boise.

Yes, much better than the DC swamp craphole that votes 96% for one (rotten) party.
