      I do. Get fucked, California. Fix your shit instead of working around it.

      Trump took 38.3% of the vote in California. Is that who you want to do trade with?

          I don’t think OP cares about it being a majority or not. 38% voters is too many for their liking. And honestly, you can’t blame 'em.

        38.3% of voters.

        Not 38.3% of the population.

        Pretty significant difference.

        Thats way less than most places in the US and less than fucking doug ford got in ontario. Less than Pierre was polling canada wide too. So yeah, I’d rather trade with them than say fucking alberta which is also way higher conservative poll numbers.

            In what way? Alberta is politcally basically the polar opposite to my beliefs, and is holding the entire country back. California is still not nearly left enough for my tastes, but aside from some outlying rural areas generally is much more favorable to my political views. With the exception of trade barriers and the fact that money going to california still impacts the US GDP, generally speaking Id rather give my money to people with similar beliefs as myself, especily if those people are trying to take a stand against trump/other fascist politicians and not licking their boots and huffing oil fumes like danielle smith.

          I don’t understand why the north won and still allowed the Confederate flag, war criminals to be heroes name bases after war criminals. It boogles my mind and is probably one of the reasons America is where it is. The north never actually won just dominated for awhile.

            It is because we generally don’t obsess about the south like they obsess about themselves and the north.

            We have shit to do.

            Like an unemployed drunk staying at home, screaming at the TV and beating his wife because their life didn’t turn out well.

            While we have reasons not to be so trash.
