They just need to leave the country...find another one.
The issue is not only what the majority in CA want but what the feds will allow because CA doesn’t qualify for hostile secession IMO.
They need to take their illegals and their electoral votes and go away. The wall can snake around their east border and it’s a win-win for everyone.
They can leave the country. The land is ours. Plenty of people will be happy to fill it.
I’m good with Calexit.
California isn’t probably the only State that penalizes the elderly for using electric space heaters to keep warm this frigid Winter, but it is the one we are stuck in, paying out our retirement savings for electricity, and being threatened with higher penalty charges unless we turn off those heaters.
It is ludicrous to even speak of “California” leaving the union.
What is somewhat conceivable is that San Francisco, Los Angeles, and some other communities on the Pacific coastline might separate from California and form a new country.
The majority of the state (in terms of land mass) does not support Leftwing craziness.
I support Calexit, and I don’t live in CA. Let them leave, then we can build a wall around California, to keep their illness from spreading.
Ever notice that the abbreviation for California is CA, and the abbreviation for cancer is also CA?
If the Union is divisible, then California is divisible.
I say let CA go no strings attached because the upside for the rest of the USA would be huge. CA is a huge political ball and chain.
And so does 90% of the rest of the country.
We’re going to need a bigger wall.
Neo secessionists here notwithstanding, you attempt to secede, you die. Anything less is national suicide, which is what the left is all about. Civil War 101.
BINGO...You win the thread prize!
Almost half of the land (46%) in California belongs to all of us - the citizens of the USA.
The Calexit people should leave the USA if they want to but the land stays with us right here in the USA.
Ain’t gonna happen folks. Relax your fingers and let that trial balloon just float away. We would need to trade with all these other states. They could slap a tariff on us in California to punish us for doing the bidding of the EPA regardless of how many people lose their jobs. Think about Central Valley, and all those farmers who had no water for their crops because people like Barbara Boxer wanted to protect some fish nobody ever heard of. That’s just one small example of Gov. Brown’s domain. Next; let’s talk about all our Sanctuary Cities, and the funding used to house, feed, insure, hospitalize, counsel, teach , defend and jail all of our undocumented ‘guests’.
I’m all for this. We don’t need 79 liberal electoral votes, we don’t need their $969.5 Billion pension debt, and we certainly do not need Hollywood. The best benefit would be that the democRATS will not win another presidential election for a very long long time.
90% of the rest of the country supports it.
Go right ahead. There will never be another democrat president the other 49, and you will be a broke Mexican speaking nation.
Greece with new agers and Mexicans.
