A prominent Democratic New York State Senator has floated the fanciful proposition that her state and its northeastern neighbors secede from the United States to join Canada to avoid President-elect Donald Trump’s return to office.
Liz Krueger, who chairs the New York State Senate Finance Committee, argued that the Empire State, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont, could all suffer under Trump’s new administration.
Citing his proposed crackdown on immigration and promise of mass deportation, the Manhattan Democrat believes liberal and sanctuary states such as New York could be threatened with cuts in the amount of federal funding they receive, a move the incoming leader and his cabinet have suggested, should states oppose new policy measures.
It looks like the libs want more murderers, rapists, gang members, criminals and poverty from all over the world in their communities! That looks to be the hill they want to die on.
The Conservatives hold an 18-point lead over the Liberals and remain in a strong position to win a big majority government with the potential for a net gain of nearly 100 seats, mostly at the expense of the Liberals.
I don’t understand all of the doom and gloom. It’s only four years. And it appears that Congress is not going to let Trump do what he wants. IMHO there is no upside in leaving the country. Even a state with a robust economy would loose their military protection which would cost them dearly.
It’s not going to happen.
Actually there is an upside.
Parents throw out parasite children all the time.
They take them out of the will before they squander the business.
But if they want to leave by them self…by all means let them go.
