Let them declare independence.
Then the US can invade. Don’t worry, these pansies would make the Italian army in WW2 look good. I don’t think a transgendered motorized division riding pink scooters has much of a chance defending the California republic. The only real resistance would come from the Hispanic gangs.
Then occupy and set up military government just like they did after CW1. Kick out all illegals, and deport commie Dems/ and or put them on trial for treason.
I figure then we could drain CA by 10-20 million. Let people in the other states repopulate CA via homesteading/ carpetbagging.
You think the Vietnam anti war protests were bad then wait til you see what happens if the US Army invades CA. The USA will go berserk. Nobody will stop CA if they vote for it. It will be peaceful like when the USSR split up.
