Well, if Commiefornia wants to secede from the Union, I won’t stop them. In fact, more power to them. If they want communism so much, they can form their own nation.

[9YearLurker]

Interesting, given that their top industries and college are essentially CIA properties, how the assets would be divvied up in such a diverse. CA voters might not get all they think they have coming to them.

California Constitution permits it to divide into parts. So section out LA and SF into their own states, and let the cecede.

[Fungi]

California, Oregon, Washington, out. Alberta in.

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

All for it. Wouldn’t bother me one bit.

[Da Coyote]

Try it and give us a reason to kick your ignorant Obamaholes outta here.

[LegendHasIt]

Gonna need a pretty long and high wall if they do.

I’d be glad to donate to that project.

[Jacquerie]

Three hundred word excerpt limit, right?

[Flaming Conservative]

Well, bye!

[DIRTYSECRET]

Fake news. Doesn’t matter-Newsweek. Proof the subject isn’t TDS.

[laconic]

California currently has 44 Dem House members and 8 R. The loss of this 36-vote dem edge would probably put the House off limits to the leftists for 100 years.

[DownInFlames]

These people ought to read what happen to states in the 1860s who tried to secede. Maybe if the Mexican army invaded.

I would think the spooks would like their controlled assets in Silicon Valley and Hollywood to be in a diffetent country. So many work arounds and degrees of separation.

[j.havenfarm]

I’m not so sure the Republican counties like this county, Olacer, would do along quietly

[Jonty30]

Bye.

[Jonty30]

When it doesn’t work and they want readmittance, conditions can be imposed upon them.

[airborne]

Could they survive without federal government money?

[Dilbert San Diego]

Good point. Democrats nationally would be completely opposed to California leaving the union. Just saying , it would be a heck of a lot harder for any Democrat to win a presidential election, without being able to pencil in California’s electoral votes for the Democrat.

[Right_Wing_Madman]

California Constitution permits it to divide into parts.

No it doesn't. California, like any other state, would need approval from the US Congress to break apart into multiple states, as noted by Admissions Clause of the US Constitution.
