Jerry Brown: If Trump Wins, We’ll Build a Wall Around California
Breitbart ^ | March 15, 2016 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Posted on 03/15/2016 6:49:52 AM PDT by maggief

California Gov. Jerry Brown joked on Monday that if Republican frontrunner Donald J. Trump wins the 2016 election, the state would have to erect a wall — not on its border with Mexico, but its borders with other states.

“If Trump were ever elected, we’d have to build a wall around California to defend ourselves from the rest of this country,” he said at a dinner held in Sacramento by the California Labor Federation and State Building and Construction Trades Council of California, according to the Sacramento Bee. “By the way that is a joke,” he added. “We don’t like walls, we like bridges.”

The governor blasted “old white guys” for not recognizing that their pensions depended on the influx of “young people coming into this country and into this state.”


1. So...the old white guy blasts “old white guys”
2. How is the influx of young people going to help pensions if they’re a [big] net drain on the public coffers?

Jerry’s been smoking too much Humboldt weed. We buy 19% of out energy from out of the state, and rely heavily on industry products from Arizona and Texas. Poor Jerry, He’s stoned again

I remember when George Carlin used a similar suggestion in one of his comedy routines. I thought the idea had merit back then, too.

A wall built around Brown’s office would be more appropriate as he is the problem. Jerry Brown and his lunacy are a pox on the state of CA. Everyone I talk to in CA is for Trump!

I really dislike Trump, but THAT is a comment that would lock me in as a YUGE Trump supporter!

“By the way that is a joke,” he added. “We don’t like walls, we like bridges.”

Oh well. Guess I’m still voting for Ted!

Don't joke. Do it. Californistan is a hostile neighboring communist tyrannical nation. I won't even violate its airspace.

In CA we have Border Control Checkpoints fifty miles NORTH of San Diego. San Diego is a Buffer Zone.
