CALexit - California Secession...?

Since Donald Trump’s electoral victory was first announced, #Calexit has been trending on Twitter, with distraught Californians looking to form their own state.

As one Twit(ter), Sam Bell tweeted, "So #Calexit is a thing right? I am a million times down for that."

I'm with you, Sam. I've considered California - the People's Republic thereof - to be a separate country for a long time. Let's make it official!

Funny Sam, you Democrats tried the same thing in 1860 when your side lost an election.

Without Federal subsidies that state would be even more financially distressed than it is now.

Bring it. Once their pension crisis is fully realized they will all be scratching the dirt for a living. No visas to the U.S. and no path to citizenship.

How about we sell CA to Mexico and require all the illegals to move to CA from the rest of the county? Make CA the newest 3rd world failed state.

California is not America anymore. Good riddance, don’t let the door hit you on the way out. Mexico will absorb everything within 50 years anyway.

You guys aren’t thinking like Russians. We want the economic output/resources. Screw the people who live there. Who cares?

How many electoral votes does California have? Imagine democrat presidential candidates having to win without those guaranteed votes. Doing without fresh fruit might be worth it.

Bring it.

Bite your tongue! If it were to happen then civilized states would be flooded with those sanctimonious, pretentious wind bags fleeing the inevitable. Think Oregon. Think Colorado. Do we want even more fags contaminating the Heartland?
