The messages, some of which come from possible 2028 contenders, harken back to the first Trump term, when big Democratic states repeatedly sparred with the White House. They also suggest a long campaign as ambitious Democrats tout their willingness to take on Trump at home and across the country.
Democratic strategist Hank Sheinkopf sounded alarms that the president-elect could seek to crack down on the states whose leaders oppose him.
“This is a dangerous game for the governors to play,” he said, adding that Republicans’ potential trifecta “increases the odds of punishment.”

CA, IL, MA. Yeah, I’m surprised! /s
Let’s just send all the illegals to those states and cancel federal funding for them.
Your terms are acceptable, Bluto.
😂😂😂😂. Too funny. Bet PEDJT is quaking in his boots. Their state, their choice. Despite the red counties objections.
Believing that Governors control immigration law is fools gold. People want these people deported those siding with criminals in 26 will be run out of office even in blue states
Sounds like Massachusetts should be the new prime destination for the busloads of illegals that FL & TX ship out.
These idiots are just jockeying for 2028...
While getting past Lardass Prickster might be an issue, his state moved 11% to the right, so he’s right to be worried.
Seven more counties joined the 25 who have already passed secession resolutions to form “New Illinois”. That’s nearly 1/3 of the total counties in the state - some day this is going to have to be treated seriously.
People tell me “Chicago is the economic engine of Illinois”. I reply “Just how long is that engine going to run without any freaking food?”. Rural Illinois went as high as 74% for Trump and he came within 10% statewide. Take Chicago/Crook county out and IL is a red state.
They seem pretty desperate. I’ve received text messages from the Newsome campaign including a Zoom link to their meeting last week even though I don’t live in California.
Cut off federal aid to states that obstruct the Trump agenda.
more so than when they tried to kill him?
i don’t think so
stfu loser
your resisting nothing but Americas greatness
people not gonna stand for it
How about this. Send a copy of how Lincoln handled Maryland.
Simple. Appropriation rider that says no state that fails to fully cooperate with INS/Border Patrol may receive federal funds of any type. But the coward Republican sissies.....
Yeah, because calling Trump Hitler, a fascist, and a dictator resonated so well with voters and actually didn't appear to oppose Trump enough. So, yeah, do it harder. That sounds like an elector winning strategy.
By the way, all those Dem Senate incumbents who began running last-minute ads proclaiming how they worked with Trump ended up eeking out a win.
There seems to be a clear line as to the powers of Governors and Federal government. It shouldn’t be a problem, in spite of their huffing and puffing.
Trump needs to start offering free (US paid) one way bus tickets for illegal immigrants to these states.
I thought that the Democrats big worry was the preservation of democracy. I guess that only holds if you vote Democrat...
The Hill may as well be Media Matters.
Those governators need to chillax into a Superconducting State.
Somebody ought to yell these fools that when they are losing it is wise to stop digging the hole deeper!
