California has the 4th largest Economy in the world. If Gavin Newsom said FU to Red States I'd be cheering him on.

I've been waiting for some Governor to say, "FU" to those useless, Red, welfare, states since I moved here 30 years ago.

I share that feeling and then I remember, having lived in a red state, there are many Democrats …just not enough.

Everyone sacrifices when fighting fascism. This is not a counter point, it's what right wing propaganda wants you to do. As that protects the red states.

I don’t want to protect red anything. You’re right. Thx.

Hopefully after this we fix our gerrymandering issue and your state can be better represented.

At Ther very least, all blue states should withhold funds to the federal government. Lets see the red states bleat

I think all blue states need to do this and I don't live in one. Red state voters need to be shown the harsh reality that they are takers and need blue state money. And beggars can't be choosers.

He’s not really saying FU to red states though. If that were the case we’d be hearing him talk more about with holding federal tax dollars to threatening to secede. Instead we get to let our politicians in Washington choose their constituents just to stoop to red states level. This isn’t fighting.

Have you seen this article? It’s the most promising thing I have read in a long time. Spoiler: Blue states are considering exactly that! bsky.app/profile/ihav...

Thats what all blue states should do. Trump is a coward. Just the hint of blue state succession would make him shit his pants.

I AM cheering him on! Fuck ignorant red state moochers. We Californians are sick of paying for republican ineptitude!

I would and I'm in a red state. Sometimes lessons learned are tough.

NY and Illinois have economies comparable in size to powerful Western European countries . Trump has no idea what kind of fight he is picking.

Not me. I greatly admire Gavin, but I live in a red state that I love in spite of the fucking corrupt politicians including the very worst governor on earth.

Yeah, let's all cheer about the suffering of disenfranchised youth, poor people, and people of color living in states that have been authoritarian regimes for a good decade now. And if you say "they should all move," I'll say you lack a fundamental understanding of economic and social realities.

I agree with you. There's no easy solution for any of this. All of it is horrible.

He will only do that if he keeps a commission. I own a small business in Cali. Newsom has been bleeding us all dry here. Put up a real hero, like AOC or Jasmin.

I live in a red state and agree 100%. Things will never change until they feel the squeeze, sooner rather than later.

I'm so sorry. I don't want anyone to suffer but trump is hell bent on making Blue states suffer while milking us dry.

All the blue states should get together and go "no, we're not gonna foot the bill for red states anymore" Keep the money that gets wasted and put it back into their own states instead.
