Trouble is, they will take the geography with them when they secede.
The beach is not only fun, it’s vital to our national security.
Imagine what it will cost to rent a naval base in CA.
We just move the wall inland a bit to exclude cali....... no prob.
Then let’s force the traitors out of the country by bayonet. I’m OK with this. We basically did the same to the Torries back in the 1780s.
That naval base then becomes just like Fort Sumter. It belongs not to California, but to the United States. If California tries to take it by violence, then we invade, conquer, and reconstruct the state.
And hang the traitors.
Well CA won’t be nearly so beautiful when we shut off their water and electricity.
Why, the cost to rent all existing Federal Facilities is EXACTLY equal to the value of all water and electricity that enters California from the rest of the States.
California wants Travis AFB, Twenty-nine Palms, Fort Irwin, and San Diego Naval Base ? Fine, take them. It will get dark and thirsty FAST. . . and no longer our problem.
After the die-off, we occupy the Territory of California, and admit sections back into the Union as we see fit. **IF** we see fit. . .
