The California leftist politicians make all of these crazy decisions and then want the rest of the country to bail them out. If they secede there won’t be anyone to bail them out. Have they thought about that?

“activist, debate moderator, and author”

I think the formal name for that profession is “grifter”.

I’m fully on board with this as long as they break off the great state of Jefferson

If CA did secede, it would only be a matter of time before it became part of Mexico (again).

Let them. Liberate them and then reconstruct the heck out of them

The Alt Left enclaves on the coast can be liberal reservations when they can exist under their own laws and local goverment without voting rights.

“Have they thought about that?”

No, leftists never think of how their decisions might impact the future. And they never learn from past mistakes. They are emotionally driven nut jobs that think only about what’s going on now.

And they are not true communists, as a true commie does plan for the future. The USSR lasted several decades, the CCCP is doing well, and so is Vietnam. This is because their leaders are not full blown bat$hit crazy.

Kalifornia lefties are true blue crazies that do more damage to themselves by accident than anyone on the outside could possibly do on purpose.

If they do implode, a true form of communism, such as from the ChiComs, could easily take over. So IMO secession is not an option.

Those who don’t study history are destined to repeat it. S.c. Dec 1860 tried this. And suffered badly. Democrats are stupid.

Will the conservative enclaves in Northern California be allowed to secede from the new nation?

Do you really believe that California Leftist politicians (but I repeat myself) actually think things through? If they did, they wouldn’t be Leftists, and southern Cali wouldn’t be a burned out $hithole begging everyone for money to fix the problems they created for themselves.

I’m thinking they get the south end of San Francisco to the north end of Los Angeles, and 30 miles inland. And they agree to pay relocation costs for normal people who want out of ObamaLand or whatever they are going to call it. We control the forests and the Pacific ports.

California couldn’t secede from the union if it wanted to Texas is the only state that didn’t sign the paper work to join it.

California still believes it’s worth anything after it make itself a shit hole and a mecca for stupidity.

Nothing could be better for the rest of us. 2 minutes after the split the good guys with guns outside of the metros would split away as there would be no US army to stop them. The good guys could rejoin or stay on their own but no matter what 20 million leftists would no longer have a say in how things are run outside of their cities.

During the Civil War Southern Democrats were secessionists while Northern Democrats aka 'Copperheads' were appeasers as reflected in the Democrats nominating for President George B. McClellan in 1864, a former Union general who ran on a platform that called for an immediate ceasefire and negotiations with Confederate leaders. This stance alienated many voters who supported Lincoln’s approach to continue fighting until victory was achieved.

Operative word in this painting of Civil War secession is 'Democrat' aka RAT!

Trade California for Canada and Greenland. Offer all Danes the right to emigrate to California as a sweetener.

We may have to throw in Oregon and Washington, but we should move the Northern border of Washington down as far as possible to get access to the ocean.

We may want to buy Baja California from Mexico as well to gain access to warm water.
