A recent poll suggests one in three California residents would support a possible secession from the U.S. because of their opposition to President Donald Trump.
"There's such hostility towards Trump that many citizens believe it would be smarter to leave than fight," Democratic political strategist Steve Maviglio told Reuters.
A Reuters survey revealed that 32 percent support the so-called Calexit, an increase of 12 percent since the last poll was conducted in 2014.

CA would be part of NATO and the USA could lease the bases or pull out. The USA’s choice.

Actually, there is something about the left coast that screws up people’s minds. Everything within 75 miles of the coast from San Diego to Bellingham, WA could exit and we would be better for it.

So how many of these “Californians” are U.S. citizens?

If CA secedes then those that oppose that and want a military conflict to force CA back into the union are my sworn enemies. You want a huge war? Try to stop CA, the fighting won’t just be there....

Well said!

Good to see that guy. Now, all is right with the world.

Notice how afraid all the polling pukes are of asking the rest of the USA how they feel about CA seceding. They are afraid to find out how nobody either cares or is in favor of it.

Coincidentally 2 of 3 Americans want California to leave.

I used to think Freepers were intelligent but your post convinces me otherwise.

If this were a poll about Trump, the headline would be "Only 33% Support Trump."

Big talk from a tin horn little Caesar. Do you think guys like me are going to sit around and do nothing while you invade CA? You will be my sworn enemy if you do that. The war will spread to EVERYWHERE.

Its probably like the war of independence. 1/3 were British loyalists, 1/3 for the revolution and 1/3 had no allegiance either way.

If anyone lifts one finger to stop a CA secession I will be in their face.

Calexit is inconsistent with the Manifest Destiny of the United States.
To: Trump20162020
The best way to handle California is to just simply let them have their silly vote. If and when they should declare themselves a sovereign nation, say “fine”. Once the parades and lofty speeches subside, declare war on them, bomb their cities, their power stations and dams, send in troops to shoot anything that resists, arrest and hang Brown and all their politicians and troublemakers, and install a martial government in perpetuity that administers it as an occupied conquered country.
