A PRETTY EXPENSIVE FUCK YOU

By Bob Walsh

 

 

 

The people who keep track of such things are asserting that Gavin Newsom's FUCK YOU to the peasant-voters and to Donald Trump (by way of a special election) will cost the people of the formerly great state of California about $200 million.  Newsom denies it.  He is, as usual, full of shit.  Assuming it happens, which is far from a sure thing.  

Even though the lead time for the maps, which are ALLEGEDLY going to be prepared by the CA legislature have already been drawn up in DC, may not be an issue the legislature will still only have five work days in which to invalidate various portions of CA law and the state constitution and pass the legislation necessary to get the issue on the ballot.  

That doesn't mean Gavin won't give it a serious attempt.  He might even pull it off.  Assholes sometimes do win.
