Sorry, Bannon simply wrong on this. The Dems in the rest of the county absolutely would NEVER allow this to happen.
Are you kidding? They would never win another election, ever, without a base of 55 electoral votes. Romney would have won, HW Bush would have won, Ford would have won.
Moreover, the House would flip instantly to R dominance.
No, the national D party will literally physically & violently remove ppl in leadership in CA if they really get too close to this.
You understand Bannon well enough to know that he understands "cheese," right? This is "cheese."
FReegards!
Ford did win CA in 1976.
