What do you think? π
No bingo card is big enough for 2025
Case in point: Brexit.
A majority in every part of England now wants closer ties to the EU, and it's only a matter of time till that strengthens.
Especially if Trump and Musk continue to threaten us.
Example: The UK is still figuring out Brexit... That was years ago.
You can't just join and leave and come and go.
Just issuing new ID's & plates would bankrupt most small countries.
It makes nothing better any more than the UK leaving the EU made brussels easier to work with It hurts everyone except our enemies abroad. It smells like RU chaos
Except for Trump π€π€π€
The Manchurian Candidate wasn't supposed to be a democracy. That said, neighbouring was Idiocracy, yet here we are
Hybrid warfare is unfortunately very real.
Brexit 2.0
Brexit= peaceful and democratic
Cexit= i would not think so considering the leadership is turning autocratic and aggressive towards long term friends Denmark, Canada and EU.
2. That would just lead to the USA invading California and taking it back but not as a state, just an unincorporated territory with no right to vote
All theoretical, of course
2. What

&While California has a large &diverse economy, how big will the hit be from its loss of several military bases? San Diego, 2 or 3 in the desert, 2 around Sacramento &the coast guard stations
And what arrangements will be made around the usda forest lands?
But I also think my fellow Californians will vote "no."
Nonetheless, California & the other productive states shouldn't be shackled to the dead weight of the South.
Well, then one has to admit that he currently seems to be succeeding beyond even his wildest dreams.
We are not going to divide our country.
We need to get rid of MAGA from government and take back our country. Trump wants to divide us.
Donβt do his work for him!
RESIST!!!!
4/6 π I mean, who wouldn't want to escape the fucking mess that is the US government? π. From the corrupt politicians to the broken systems, it's a wonder anyone still has faith in the institution π ββοΈ. #Calexit #FuckingEscape
6/6π¨π₯So, to all the Californians out there who are considering voting "yes" on this measureπ€, let me say: don't be fucking afraid to take a standπ. Secession might be a scary idea, but it's also a chance for Cali to forge its own path & create a better future for its citizensπ. Let's do this!π
Don't have to guess. Yeah, they can't actually secede. It's a vote of no confidence in the US that wouldn't actually be voted on until 2028. The 500000+ signatures is 5% of the number of people who voted for the governor.

No Democrat can with the presidency without Californiaβs 54 electoral college votes.
Without the Golden State, America becomes a golden shower.
the blue states who are actual patriots not worshippers of a felonious pedophile.
I think it would be difficult to manage combining the two regions and becoming the same country given the distance.

Ca should just create an asshole tax to states that take more from blue states than they pay in. Apply it to everything we sell to them.
make red states have to buy food from Mexico if they donβt like it.
Donβt invite the invited rednecks!
Puerto Rico as well
not sure about what happens next with them. likely will get informed-and very pissed.
Their more like Canada in values. Same with Oregon, Washington, Maine, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont etc
California should join Canada along with some other states.
If Oregon and Washington did the same, the US would have no access to the Pacific Ocean, which would embolden China.
Scary!
Does anyone know of more details? I admit I haven't read the book. I plan to after the show finally finishes.
It's populous enough, and AFAIK has a very strong military presence. Would it give back nukes like Ukraine?

Honestly - what kind of democracy do you have where you think voting in a way your federal government does not like will result in a war?
As a Canadian I don't care if you guys want to kill yourselves. Just leave us out of it.
not saying California doesnβt BUT i feel CA has a better shot of survival
Can one get residency in 30 or 60 days and be eligible?
Literal Dead line going on here.

You deserve much better than how you are being treated.
We can see weβre not wanted.
Btw weβre taking Hollywood with us. π $$$$$
-Secede.
-Revolt and overthrow the new California government.
-Arrest and deport all the progressive politicians and bureaucrats.
-Install a new Constitution free of Progressive ideals.
-Return to the US.
Fastest way to return sanity to California.
Threatened by ridiculous take over bid and respond with own quiet advance π
Pensavo che Trump sarebbe stato una iattura per lβOccidente
Ma non pensavo sarebbe stato una catastrofe paragonabile alla peste di Giustiniano (che poi, peste non eraβ¦) Non so se sβΓ¨ capita lβantifonaβ¦
It can't and won't happen.
This is just mischief making.
As Canadian I insist we unleash 0% Tariffs to a future independent California.
They deserve nothing less.
Safe happy waves
but that shop has sailed. For now I am only looking out for my state, which is California.
Once there it would require 50% participation, there are 22.6M registered voters, and a 55% plurality, 12.43M votes.
I think they will get the 500K signatures to put it on the ballot but I doubt it would pass in 2028.
so if it is a pissing contest with trump, Cali can go its own way.
A state cannot legally secede as it was decided by SCOTUS in Texas v. White following the Civil War when Texas joined the Union.
Some constitutional scholars say that secession could be considered treason under the Articles of
This petition is about negotiating independence from the U.S. That's legal. It's how the Philippines became a country. California can too.

That would give the 34-time Convicted Felon a reason to send troops into California. Something he'd LOVE to do.
People can secede, move to Canada or wherever, but they can not take the land or the water with them.

No, states do not have the right to secede from the Union.
If all the blue states went with Canada, weβd be rid of the Nazis?? Iβm in. How do I apply
Nothing is written in stone.
1- Blue states succeed en masse & force MAGA to become radically self-reliant as per their πβοΈππΌ. π we elect our own gov.
2- Fascism. What say π«΅?
I read that people there are pissed of because of Trumps visit. Pity that Don was not in local Fire brigade; he could have been able to show how to put all fires down the right way.
