      It’s not up to Trump. The Constitution doesn’t let us leave. That doesn’t mean we can’t, it means we will immediately be at war with the US if we do.

        Honestly, Cali is already at war with the US. The current administration is already talking about withholding all kinds of random shit for cali. That sounds like an attack to me.

          Trump has already drained some reservoirs without consulting experts, plus ICE is on the prowl. California is going to feel serious pain come harvest season.

          Inspiration for a sequel. After Trump and friends are spending time at Mussolini’s, we will need to make a whole new government. Having a blueprint for making a better Constitution will be helpful for making the rehabilitation process.

        I will never forgive Lincoln for not telling the south to not let the door hit their asses on the way out.

          He died before he could see Reconstruction through, and his successor killed it.

          Mind, Lincoln should have mass executed all significant leaders in the south. Offering mercy to those of a Nazi bearing always ends up damaging society. Better to put them down, rather than letting the infection fester.
