Would the conservative rural counties be allowed to succeed from California and rejoin the United States as a new state?

Or would the country/state ‘require’ them to remain - in direct hypocrisy of their own separatist actions?

There’s a precedent for that with WVA.

Not likely until CA secedes from the Union.

You have exactly the wrong perspective on the situation. If the leftwing nutbags running California decide to go full retard, it won't matter one whit what they "allow". There are plenty of us who will break off from the main state and rejoin the union as our own state, and the limp-wristed queers can cry all they want.
