    Wouldn't we then be invaded by the US military?

    It would need to be a joint effort by California, Washington, and Oregon with assurances from European allies that they would support us. But there's really nothing else we can do.

    One thing I have been thinking about though - are any of you worried that things you have said online will get you on a list? People are imprisoned in places like Russia, Iran, and Turkey if they speak out about their tyrannical governments online.

    Perhaps. You have to wonder how on-board with such an invasion the various members of the US military would be. Especially if the secession also included the NE states. That would be a pretty big section of the population.

    The bigger question is.... what happens to all the major bases in California and Washington? The Navy has major ports in both states.

    And if it were to all come down to money, how large of a ransom would C/O/W have to pay to Trumperica to be released free of resistance?

    There's no way they'd let California go without a fight.

    Who would have thought that the Civil War movie from the last couple years would be true? Although I don't see California and Texas teaming up.

    They'd have to imprison a lot of people. Millions.

    This might take the cake for the most off the rails thread on this site. Straight up Infowars comments section during the Obama years. Extremely entertaining, however.

    So, you are cool with Trump becoming King? With him dissolving checks and balances by taking away power from the other branches of government?

    Can't say I'm surprised.

    Remember, logic doesn’t work with these types of people. They consider it to be leftist propaganda perpetuated by the universities.

    Always comical when someone says they hate both sides, but only complains about one.

    Oh my God, I was taught to think for myself...the humanity.

    Maybe there is also a false sense of security going on in being at the devil's side instead of in front of him.

    There’s just something sort of anti-climactic in screaming about how the end times are upon us for the 3,614th time in 8 years.
    The left’s currency of fear mongering has lost its value. You guys just appear insane.
