Anti-Trump secessionists filed formal paperwork Monday launching their petition drive aimed at separating California from the union by first putting the issue before voters on the 2018 ballot.
A petition submitted by the Yes California Independence Campaign calls for repealing language in the state constitution that describes California as an inseparable part of the nation and holding a vote on independence on March 13, 2019.

Good luck, if you think Greece is in a bad way just you wait.
Be sure that they take their pro-rata (based on population) share of the national debt with them (to go along with their tremendous state debt.)
.
Yes, I'm being sarcastic. But, I suspect they would get plenty of support for secession from the rest of the US.
Good, time for another wall.
Don’t forget to take your share of the $20 Trillion debt
Great, Dems lose California’s electoral votes. Like swallowing poison and expecting the other person to die.
So when they secede and the Federal Funds stop coming. Watch the free loaders scatter like a bunch of cockroaches.
California secession = Republican Presidents for remainder of century.
Liberals in the rest of the country would be very much against this. Reason being, if you back out vote totals from California from everywhere else_, Trump would have won a comfortable victory in the rest of the country, both in the popular vote aeleelectoral vote.
No way would they want to say bye to California virtually automatic 55 electoral.votes for a Democrat pres. Candidate in the future.
As a South Carolinian, I would strongly encourage them to secede. Worked well for us.
/sarc... sort of
And you KNOW they won’t go through with it because it will dawn on them that this means NO MORE HANDOUTS . No federal funding. So many Mexicans will flood the state the San Andreas Fault will finally break off and California will be no more. Suckersss....lol
I’m fine with it. Let them go - it means that for the next fifty or sixty years there will never be another Democrat president.
I didn’t even know there was a place to submit such paperwork.
If they are successful then:
1. They lose all current intellectual Patent, copyright and trademarks.
2. We keep San Diego and San Francisco.
Hey we oughta start a petition to get calimexico outta the USA or give it back to mejico!!
Where do I sign?...................
“Good, time for another wall.”
It would be very much like the Berlin Wall, keeping people from escaping, after a year or so.
I am 100% supportive of this!
(as long as they take the 10 trillion in debt that “their” guy Obama ran up with them!)
Where will the Mexicans get all their free stuff then
