    The West Coast could be its own countr

    Guess which state has the largest population of Republicans. Now guess the state that donates the most to the GOP. Now guess the state whose residents make to the highest percentage of Trump’s cabinet.

      What a weird way to just say California is the most populous state. Guess which state has the most Democrats, leftists, and liberals. Also California!

        Liberals in California are as owned by the corporate sector as their conservative peers.

        Gavin Newsom isn’t coming to save you.

          I don’t think anyone was looking for a savior. I was just indicating that there are some states that are neatly divisible with aligned views and values: those on the West Coast.

          It likely won’t happen for various reasons anyway, but it’s a pleasant thought.

            Well you are wrong and naive.

              Nah I’m not. They’re building multi state accords on a number of issues.

              But keep on trucking with the bullshit bud.

            there are some states that are neatly divisible

            Again, the state is full of Republicans, many of whom are heavily influential in liberal politics. That’s why you had Gavin Newsom doing podcasts with Charlie Kirk and Steve Bannon to begin with.

            These aren’t neatly divisible. Republicans and Democrats live next door to one another.

              Dude, I live in California. I know there’s Republicans here. You aren’t blowing my mind with this. They’re some of the biggest whiners in the state.

              If, by some miracle, the coast became its own country they’d likely find the nearest exit.
