Serious question - what imports would we need? Because the way things are going - the coastal/border states are going blue. The entire west coast, southern AZ, NM, TX, LA... I suppose AL and MS have some ports, but FL is on the fence (with Miami being a huge port and very blue), NYC, MD, MA... all of Canada (good luck getting imports through there when they support the cucks). Blues have a majority of the coast so if it comes to red vs. blue (and this seems to be a primary dividing issue between the two) I think the red ports are kinda fucked.
My thought is if we can keep TX oil flowing and fracking/shale facilities we should be able to generate our own power/fuel our vehicles, and I don't think gunpowder-producing-panhandle FL will go blue any time soon. Food shouldn't be a problem for heartland America as long as the fuel keeps coming in. Blue coast would run out of money quickly trying to import all the food they'd need to keep the cities from tearing themselves apart.

My guess is it will be City vs rural.
All we have to do is cut the power and stop the trucks and we win inside of a year.
I don't think any globalists should survive it. There will be no social marxists or parasites on the other side. On the other hand we must take that opportunity to remove zog permanently. The demographic problem would be solved. America for Americans.

"I don't think any globalists should survive it. " - Globalists and the elites will run and hide as soon as they sense a change. (Think New Zealand). They'll come back when and if it's safe for them to, after the dirty work is done.

I think most cities yes, but there will certainly be some red cities throughout the heartland.
But you make it sound so simple - this insidious blue beast is not that stupid. They will secure means to resources before making the final move - this is why I'm looking at the coasts. How do we import what we need? Even the Civil and Revolutionary Wars relied upon foreign aid to some degree - in war an advantage is an advantage.
Also cities have airports, and distribution centers are usually located throughout sprawling suburbs. "All we have to do" is simple to say; logistically it is a little more difficult.

If you're worried about fuel look into building a gasifier.
