OK, so the same shit about "trump is going to". last I heard newsom was in charge of CA NG. Trump isn't allowed to bring them up without a declaration of emergency or whatever.
Just bullshit that they will walk back in the morning.
e: LA times and AP seem to think this is actually happening. This is the boiling point; are you going to sit in the pot or jump out?
My only complaint (and I get to blame Regan) is that we can’t open carry here in Cali. That would help stop a lot of federal response if we had that capacity again.
I’m not for destroying government property since that’s property that belongs to the people, but I also respect that change doesn’t happen with complacency. Plus if it was a peaceful protest for Jan 6ers then why is this not considered one?
Every day I wish we didn’t have the current admin in charge since they lack capacity and bandwidth to take care of the real economic issues facing our generation and time.
Completely agree though that the national guard is in control of the governor. Although I wouldn’t be surprised if Newsom agrees to bring them in if the feds kick in FEMA funding like they’re supposed to.
Ya’ll shouldn’t need to open carry because you idiots in the US could have just voted for not insane leaders for decades. Always a bad solution to a problem ya’ll could have easily avoided.
More people voted for not Trump than for Trump.
He won with the popular vote the second time so congrats on just being objectively, verifiably, flat-out wrong, I guess. Plus it should not have even been close, even the first time when he didn’t win the popular vote. He has always given STRONG “weird fringe party guy” energy yet that dumbass country gleefully elected him or didn’t even show up because they didn’t find he was dangerous enough to do anything about. The opposition was a conservative who’s biggest selling point, after she tanked her own campaign by ignoring her base, was that she wasn’t Trump. Absolutely absurd.
And I’m only slightly less pissed about my fellow Canadians only barely electing a centrist over a Trump dick-sucker. Again, a party that doesn’t even have real policies should not get any votes and yet is for some reason the main contender.
Total votes for DJT: 77,302,580
Total votes for all the other people (Harris, Stein, Kennedy, Oliver and other) combined: 77,935,722
So yes, DJT won the popular vote, but the majority, even if just a teeny tiny one, did not vote for him. DJT just got 49.8% of the total votes.

I see what you’re getting at, my point otherwise still stands. Fucking embarrassing.
