Unfortunately this runs into constitutional problems. While the spineless subhuman creatures in congress and the supreme court seem to have no problem with Trump and his administration ignoring the constitution I fully expect them to come down hard on any state that does so (at least in cases that go against Trump and his policies).

Last civil war was about state rights to own slaves. Now its state right to avoid trade distribution?

My god the writers need to be fired.

If Trump thinks he's above the Constitution why can't a state?

All hail The New California Republic. But in all seriousness, it wouldn't surprise me if the United States has a balkanization event happen in the near future.

It would be ironic if businesses come back to California because of the tariffs.

Thank goodness now we are talking. Time for California to move past the Orange Turd.

Hope this falls through. Any trade deals that allow the US to circumvent Trumps policies and thus keep his regime going is bad. The big crash needs to happen before people are motivated to fight back. The slow frog boil is what led us here to begin with.

As i read this, i am remembered of Newsom meeting Trump, after he refused to help with Californian wildfires.

Anyone speaking of secession - please, read history. We do not want to do that again, I don’t care what you believe in, it is a terrible idea. Please think it through beyond how admittedly awesome it would be in theory alone.

Secede and then we can trade :)

Maybe Cali could make an agreement to join Canada or EU.

Kudos to California. The neo-Nazi filled MAGA is all about state rights and I hope they tell California to secede.

Would be fun to watch companies from other states bypass the tariffs by buying California products.

Then of course, Trump will propose tariffs on a State.

How would a state secede from the US? Like, what’s the actual process?

cExit?

Trump has got another great idea. A tax of 1.5 million dollars for each ship made in China that will dock at any American port, or 1 million if the ship is not made in china but the shipper fleet has a majority of Chinese ships.

So, off before they did like California, Panama, Louisiana, new York, those stops will increase the price of shipping by 4.5 million dollars.

Trump thinks that in this way, in a couple weeks, shipyards will reopen in the states and everyone will buy American ships. Because it takes a couple days to build an oil tanker

Result:

They'll just unload the goods in Canada or Mexico then use trains/trucks. For oil and coal and wheat and other stuff that can't be easily transported by land without ax existing infrastructure, that's an additional 20% cost on top of tariffs. Inflation go go go

EU is already trying to specifically target products from red states with tariffs.

Holy shit, my prediction model forecast this. 🍿 This is actually a major step toward derailing this coup.
