President Trump to Brown;

If you STFU and keep your state in line, you get your aid ... if not, I walk.

The art of the deal.

I don’t think it is that California needs the money. Rather, I think they are just applying for money that they are permitted to apply for, based on the rules in effect.

It’s like when my wife ran a daycare a few decades ago, we could apply for the “free government cheese” because we ran a home daycare. Financially, we were doing fine. Better than fine, in fact. But we still got a LOT of free cheese.

And to me, it was merely getting a few of our tax dollars BACK.

I think that is what California is doing here.

The Prez needs to make moonbeam beg and dance and do all sorts of embarrassing things before any relief money is sent for anything.

Oh, and those sanctuary cities? Yeah, those have got to go. Money for illegals? Yeah, that’s got to stop.

I thought California could go it alone... Isn’t that what “Calexit” is all about?

When we submitted budget proposals to the department of finance in sacramento, we had to answer questions with the submittal. One of the questions was, is there a federal funding source for all or part of this proposal?

Cali is making Trump honor the laws while they break and scoff at them..

If they exit can't Gov. Brown created a mint and print his own money? He could write a blank check for his state. Of course, Mexico might then be tempted to actually invade and reclaim it again.

I would love to see the snowflakes try to march with signs that say make California America again. 8>)
