Are you really holding onto that hope?
How will you handle it once he is President?

But she spent too much time bashing Trump instead of outlining her plans. Apparently in her local appearances she did get into details of what she would do and how she would do it, but none of that got broadcast on national news.

Hillary sounds like an amazing candidate. Pity I didn't see that amazing candidate you describe. Ah, well, my chance to vote for such a truly qualified person like her, whose turn it was, is sadly, gone.

If California goes into recession, the rest of the country will likely follow. Especially since other economic powers like NYC, Chicago, and DC are also standing up to Trump. Trump is a world class imbecile, but even he's not dumb enough to nuke the economy to prove a point. I think.

Don't kid yourself. California total budget for FY 15 was over 252 billion and of that more than 93 billion came from the federal government. I wasn't that good at math but, from what my calculator tells me, I think California is heading for bankruptcy.

If CA does go bankrupt at least the politicians will go down fighting for a noble cause , protecting illegal immigrant criminals over the people that voted them in and the people that pay their salaries and benefits .
Do they have a conscience?

I didn't give it much credence until Republican Electors started speaking out to the media and publishing opinions in the paper. Suddenly, it's not looking so good for Trumpty-Dumpty. They're suggesting Kasich, instead.

You never know ..

Maybe she will succeed in rigging it this time . Perhaps she will raise $1 billion instead of $500 million to win this time.

At the rate she's going she'll be in a wheel chair or iron lung.

Back to the thread title, when was the last time you heard of ICE going to a high school and taking a immigrant downtown?
And you would sure hear about it, The LA Times would be all over it with violins playing in the background.
