Think DC should be a state? I don't really think so,,

Kinda like Pluto and the Planet thing...Its only 38 sq mi....

Then there are the founders wishes that it stay independent..

Can at least the capital of the US stay non partisan? Not red, not blue?

The so-called “Clause 17” of Article I, Section 8 deals with the issue that the Constitution’s framers had agreed that the new nation’s capital should be located in a district that was independent any particular state government and subject only to federal control

Looks like another wedge issue to boot...

If we want another state Puerto Rico might be a better choice but they aren't sure they want to...
