The deep divisions that exist within the America electorate have manifested themselves in a number of ways in the aftermath of Donald Trump’s historic victory in the presidential election. Perhaps the reactions are the strongest in the days immediately following the election itself, with people later settling down after they decide that while they despise the results, the world didn’t end.
That’s the normal reaction, but the 2016 election was extraordinary. So perhaps we’re going to get something other than the “normal” reaction this time around.
It certainly looks that way in California, and forces gathering for change are examined on page two.

Wow.stupid people
Go back to class and learn more stupid$#%&!@* i knew the difference between a nation and a state in 4th grade.
Ok all of you fruits and nuts move to California and have your own country. But stay there, and we are not going to rescue you when you fail. Without people they possess common sense and work ethic you will all starve to death.
What a bunch of brain-dead$#%&!@*Holes!
Once they secede they should NOT be allowed to come to any other state. They would have to stay in Calif. only.
Well when the federal money stops then tell us
Almost bankrupt. Needs federal dollar’s to survive. And they want to be a state.
The rest of the US will keep our tax dollars.
Just shows how many brainwashed morons live in that state ! CALIFORNICATION !
Wanda Watson To be honest I do not see California leaving ( look at all those Celebrities who threatened to leave but did not). But if by chance they voted to, Trump would have the advantage because of the Post Civil War Supreme Court decision on leaving the union. For that reason California can demand many things but not get what they want
i hope
