I don't think the second option is viable.
You have whole states loving the pedo unconditionally. And they would need to sign a constitution that specifically bars them to try and summon a new trump.
They simply won't sign it. So you better start thinking as separate states that join to stay relevant and hope the red union that will shortly after form doesn't have imperialist aspirations. Otherwise you'll be in for a second civil war.
But the economics in the red states would lead to such bad living conditions that people would move, and then the spiral of no money, and no people to fight a war would lead to a very one sided victory.
The economics of the red states will pale in comparison to the question of where the weapons end up. There are a lot of nuclear weapons in deep red areas.
What you say is true, but everybody has lost the game if nukes are used. Their states wont be inhabitable either.
It's more about the threat, isn't it? If the other side believes you might be suicidally crazy, they might not want to fight the war, even if otherwise it would be a one sided victory.
The threat indeed, why we had a "nice" cold war, instead of the human ending one. I think both sides would have some amount of them. Not sure how that would play out since we've never had a large scalce war between two nuclear powers. Have only had small limited area, limited troop skirmishes. Like USSR/China near Mongolia and Pakistan/India at various border points. And even more limited is the India/China border skirmishes, that dont even have rifles, but rocks and sticks.
