Gov. Jerry Brown, mocking Donald Trump for his plan to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, suggested Monday that if the Republican frontrunner wins the election, California might have to take protective measures of its own.
If Trump were ever elected, wed have to build a wall around California to defend ourselves from the rest of this country, Brown told labor organizers at a dinner in Sacramento. By the way that is a joke. We dont like walls, we like bridges.
Brown, the Democratic governor of a liberal border state, has signed legislation granting drivers licenses to undocumented immigrants and allowing undocumented immigrant college students to receive public financial aid. Like many Democrats, he has pushed Washington unsuccessfully for an overhaul of the nations immigration system.
Addressing members of the California Labor Federation and State Building and Construction Trades Council of California, Brown said California has benefited from immigration to the state, arguing that young workers are an economic boon.
Some of these old white guys ought to recognize that the whole pension system would collapse if we didnt have a bunch of young people coming into this country and into this state, the 77-year-old governor said. Theyre not all coming from here. Theyre coming from other places.
Brown also re-opened a years-old feud with former Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who withdrew from the presidential race last year. Before leaving office, Perry, a self-proclaimed hunter of jobs, ran radio ads in California luring companies to move to his state.
If I asked you who was that governor, there arent 50 people in this room that could even tell me his damn name, Brown said. And people who attack California, they do become anonymous and forgotten. Rightfully so.

Is Jerry going to get Mexico to pay for it?
I’ll help build it.........................
25% of France’s teens are Muslim. Jerry Brown is doing his best to give California back to the Mexicans
If your pension system requires an influx of new people then there is something structurally wrong with your pension system.
They need one to keep normal people from leaving.
All the gun towers will be facing IN.
reminds me of an old Midwestern joke..
A Bears fan, a Vikings Fan, and a Packers fan are out walking together one day. They come across a lantern and a Genie pops out of it. “I will give you each one wish, that’s three wishes total,” says the Genie.
The Bears fan says, “I am a farmer, my dad was a farmer, and my son will also farm. I want the land to be forever fertile in Illinois. “With a blink of the Genie’s eye, ‘FOOM’ the land in Illinois was forever made fertile for farming.
The Viking fan was amazed, so he said, “I want a wall around Minnesota, so that no infidels, Bears Fans or Packer Fans can come into our precious state.” Again, with a blink of the Genie’s eye, ‘POOF’ there was a huge wall around Minnesota.
The Packer fan asks, “I’m very curious. Please tell me more about this wall.” The Genie explains, “Well, it’s about 150 feet high, 50 feet thick and completely surrounds the state; nothing can get in or out.” The Packer fan says, “Fill it up with water.”
Hey governor, the doctor called, you need to take your meds!
What Moonbeam isn’t telling anybody is that the wall would keep illegals in. He doesn’t want to lose all those “undocumented” Democrat voters, after all.
Sounds like a plan Moonbeam. You build the wall and we stop sending your federal dollars. Let us know how that works out for ya....
Wait until after I leave, please.

Ride your train Mr. Trump, don’t listen to the media clowns, RNC wimps, DNC commies, criminal thugs, and whiners. Ride that flipping train all the way to the “Peoples House” in Wash DC.
Lets make AMERICA GREAT AGAIN and second fiddle to NOBODY
Trump’s going to win California. And then Trump’s going to win the election. And then the loonie lefts will leave California for some cold and musty island off Canada. And then life will be good again in the Golden State
An honest politician...sort of...
The system is not escrowed.
It is a Ponzi scheme.
The money was stolen and spent.
good catch. Jerry is indeed telling it like it is in that case.
Must have been in the light of a full moon.
The problem is almost no one other than folks like FReepers will notice. Certainly nobody from the MSM will ask why that is.
What Jerry Brown is in favor of, California doesn’t “need”. Indeed, quite the opposite. What Jerry Brown is in favor of is infinite peonage to unions and illegals who will keep voting for his Dem pals.
