At the end of a bitter election season that left many Americans devastated by Donald Trump’s win, some citizens of the bluest state on Hillary Clinton’s map took to social media to call for secession from the U.S. The hashtag #Calexit trended on Twitter, recalling Brexit in its appeal to break off from the union. Another popular moniker: #Caleavefornia. Some took a serious approach, like venture capitalist Shervin Pishevar: “If Trump wins,” he wrote, “I am announcing and funding a legitimate campaign for California to become its own nation.” He and others called California the sixth largest economy in the world and suggested it could be a serious player on the national stage. Others took a more lighthearted approach, with one Twitter user joking, “We’ll just take our avocados and legal weed and go.”

Let it happen PLEASE. I'd kek so hard to see SJW's run a country and see how long it takes to fall.
Ian Price
GOOD LET HE ILLEGALS FLOOD CANADA, HOLY SHIT TRUMPS POLICIES ARE WORKING AND HES NOT EVEN IN THE WH YET.
>PRAISE KEK!!!!!!!!!
Tyler Torres
imo the 6 californias plan is more feasible. we should promote that again.
Chase Reyes
Fuck them that's our land if they don't want to be American then leave the old fashioned way
Juan Moore
>liberals promoting nationalism
Holy shit, as a californian, I am proud now. Literally 5D Chess
Sebastian Roberts
California can't even grow its own food or supply itself with water
Hope they like markups
Christian Cox

The point is to get the vast majority of California's non-White population OUT of our country and our electoral system. If they secede, they no longer have the ability to freely migrate, work, and own property in neighboring states.
The real get would be breaking off the northern part of the state into Jefferson and letting the rest secede.
Alexander Kelly
That would give them more senate power.
I say we just deport all Californian to Mexico, then distribute their land to the rest of us.
Jordan Ramirez
Would Sacramento get to stay in the US?
David Jones
Not a SJW or anything but PLEASE encourage the liberal butthurt to help remove California, it would be awesome
t. Californian who wants to watch the world burn
Zachary Bell
Didn't California recently vote in harder gun control? Won't they just get taken over by Mexicans? Will you have to build wall around Cali?
Brody Wright
Jefferson is for Trump though
James Gray
I sure as fuck hope not. I think Sacramento would be an ideal cut off point, actually. It's not a port city and the people who live in it are absolute scum.
Matthew Nelson
We didn't let the South leave, why would we let California leave? It's against the law for them to secede, even though I'd be happy to be rid of that huge, and very blue, state.
Luis Brown
We can go to placerville
Matthew Gutierrez
YES!
I CAN'T WAIT TO SHOOT SOME DAMN CALIFORNIAN HIDE!
Nolan James

Parker Jenkins
i am ashamed of my state
Nolan Gutierrez
>we let them secede >all the sjws and shitskins move there >1 year later full-scale military invasion >kill everyone and steal their weed >?????????? >Profit!
Jordan Price
No damnit. I live here and I like being part of the USA. Just split the state up. Ironically doing this would hand just about anyone except the worst Republican candidates the Presidency for the next 50 years or so.
Gavin Rivera
This is so fucking stupid I can't even begin to think about the logistical nightmare this would create.
>Californians are still American >We'd have to negotiate trade deals with our neighboring states >Passports to travel >Border security to keep people in or out >Need more government to take over former federal duties >Swaths of federally owned land >Naval and airforce based
I love California but sometimes a few of us can be so retarded
Aaron Kelly
The union shall remain whole, you fuckers aren't going anywhere.
Eli Ramirez
So do we build the wall around them too?
Samuel Peterson
well.. if this happens time to turn in my passport in to a californian passport
Samuel James
>Won't they just get taken over by Mexicans?
That already happened
Asher Nguyen
>took to social media to call for secession Wow it's fucking nothing
Jason Collins
>a few
Asher Baker
media is in panic mode. they're pumping out as much negative Trump articles as possible.
Eli Turner
>Commiefornia wants to secede >ywn gun down spics and trannies in the Mexican-American war 2 nuclear boogaloo
Brody Price
>CA leaves the union >No democrat is ever elected president ever again
Lincoln Murphy
Northern California we will turn into Jefferson and stay in the U.S
Jason Gomez
>implying you'd be allowed to enter the American Empire
Blake Lee
>Implying I'm not planning a move to Oregon :^)
Easton Jackson
>Cali leaves >suddenly Democrats lose the massive chunk of electoral votes CA gives >Democrats are now incapable of winning future presidential elections >yfw their temper tantrum destroys any future hope of a Democrat president
Anthony Stewart
>Californians Suggest ‘Calexit’ Democracy won and these sore losers want out? Let them go. Without the US' help to claim DMCA, Hollywood will die from piracy. California alone has not much of an influence when it doesn't have the entire US to back it up.
Ryder Bennett
The Calif Election map shows that the Eastern half of the state is very RED...so me being in RED california have a SOLUTION. I propose that we BLOW the SAN ANDREAS FAULT and us RED peeps stay with the REPUBLIC and whatever happens to the other half...IDGAF.
Grayson Diaz
everyone hates us, only inner city people are disgusting (and people who live in the middle like Fresno and Bakersfield)
Caleb Clark
KEK CONFIRMS CALEXIT
This should be our next goal. Both parts of the state could be convinced. This is actually possible.
We can take advantage of all the brainwashing the libs have done over the past decade and USE IT AGAINST THEM.
Bentley Martinez
California couldn't even survive on it's own. They have to fucking import water from other parts of the country. Something as basic as fucking water and they've got to import it.
And no, California is not suffering from a drought. The problem is people from California are using (and wasting) so much fucking water that the normal amount of rainfall for that area of the world just isn't enough to support their water usage. A drought would imply there has been less rainfall than normal, which isn't the case. They just have unsustainable water usage.
That is how fucked the state is.
