You’re right there. Though PR doesn’t really have many cities/towns that can be equivalent to San Juan, but even if it was only San Juan or the second most populous city in PR, that would be more equivalent to NO. I don’t agree with the OP, regardless, of any coup happening if the help to some analogous US mainland situation happens. I’ll pick some swing states so the mainstream politics isn’t too onesided: Pennsylvania, Michigan, North Carolina. They are all top 10 by population, PA top 5, decent sizes (though none except Michigan are in top half of state sizes). Arizona would fit as a swing state that is top 15 in population and size (top 10) New York and LA have too much power for stuff to go too wrong with them. City-wise that leaves Dallas - Fort Worth, Houston, Chicago for cities close to PR population, but all below still.
