Californias job: make America great again

[DemocratSinceBirth]

California is already on the defensive in its battle with Donald Trump.

We need offense — now.

Trump is attacking our state as if it were just another political opponent. His strategy is not merely to push California; he wants to rob our state of its political legitimacy.

So the president of the United States has falsely claimed that California’s elections are fraudulent exercises involving millions of illegal votes. He’s accused our biggest cities of endangering our country by failing to assist with deportations. He has called California “out of control” and threatened to defund state programs.

Such attacks are so potentially damaging (because California is the world’s sixth-largest economy and a vital model of diverse peoples prospering together) that we need to be fighting Trump much more directly.

1. Trump is a fucking mad man.

California is what the rest of this country needs, and if he takes that away, there's no stopping him.

This was always my favorite song about the City of San Francisco:

3. The song was airing on TV a lot, but not in state tourism ads--in a Jeep commercial!

4. "I know when I die, I shall breathe my last sigh, for my rainy California..."

New words for our state song
