Not hedging, I don't believe that there is a conscious entity out there somewhere that has interest in us and has scripted everything we sense and every decision we make.

However, Clinton ran up the score in NY and CA. Why? Why run up the score in states you know you'll win over states you might be weak in? I can't wait for the "autopsy" to come out. I'm sure 99% of it will be Comey and Russia and 1 or 2 pages on their failure to attract Bernie voters and their abysmal candidate.

California is already behaving like a foreign country in some ways. I kind of like the free exercise of states' rights although the irony would probably be lost on many Californiacs

Cut off their federal funds...do not allow their agriculture products to be sold in the US...cut off their water from the rivers that originate elsewhere in the US...let them rot.

Conservatives bemoaning all things California is as tired and played out as Liberals ranting about Texas...
Frankly they are two of our Nations greatest states
and the majority of the hate is due to just that
Nobody cares about Nebraska or Arkansas or the vast majority of other states
because why...?
Because they are the Cleveland Browns of States
Texas and California are the GREATEST of our Nations states
With most other states falling a distant second

The president has threatened to withhold Federal Funding to California
California is among a handful of so-called “donor states,”
States which pay more in taxes to the federal Treasury than they receive in government funding...
So hows that going to work for the Feds..?

Half the country had to eat shit sandwiches for the past 8 years. It's not so cool now that the shoe is on the other foot.
None of the 58 counties in California abide by federal detainer requests. In LA, jailed illegals are set free when their sentences are complete. By FEDERAL law, they are required to notify ICE so they can be deported...you know, because they are criminals and all.

I'm not too worried what California or the Federal Government do vs. each other..
It's just that the Federal Government withdraws more money from CA. than they contribute to the state
So the carrot and stick thing will require more than just blank threats of withholding money
