So if we were smart, Oregonians would fall into step with President Trump so we could suck on the teat his administration?   That's a pretty status quo approach from you my friend.   Do you believe it's OK for any President to punish an entire state, (including our Rep and NAV voters) for political motives?

I would agree that use of power for political leverage has been a comon practice,  I'm sure Democrat Presidents have withheld favors from uncooperative Republican states.   Are you willing to be a federalist as long as the central govement reflects your own values?

I'm just surprised to hear you imply that Oregon needs to get in line or get left out.
