The mouthbreathing knuckle draggers that make up the Tea Party are responsible for that stuff. Those 4 signs/photos are just the tip of the iceberg.

Obama got shat on way more than the Donald.

“I want to do everything we can to keep America on track, keep the world on track, and lead in all the ways California has,” said Mr. Brown, who has embraced this fight as he enters what is likely to be the final stretch of a 40-year career in California government. “We’re looking to do everything we can to advance our program, regardless of whatever happens in Washington.”

“With Trump indicating that he will withdraw from climate change leadership, the rest of the global community is looking to California, as one of the world’s largest economies, to take the lead,” said Mario Molina, a Nobel Prize-winning scientist from Mexico who advises nations on climate change policy. “California demonstrates to the world that you can have a strong climate policy without hurting your economy.”

“China is committed to establishing a cap-and-trade this year, and we are looking for expertise across the world as we design our program — and we are looking closely at the California experience,” said Donquan He, a vice president of Energy Foundation China, an organization that works with the Chinese government on climate change issues.

“We may not represent Washington, but we will represent the wide swath of American people who will keep the faith on this,” [California Governor Jerry Brown] said.



Those dillweeds making up the Trump Administration and most Congressional Republicans are stupid to ignore the world's sixth largest economy and the most powerful U.S. state.

He sure seems to have done a great job cleaning up the mess that the Governator left him with.

His Lieutenant Governor, Gavin Newsom is a guy I really like as well. I think he'll be president one day.

It'll never happen nor would I want it to, but it'd be interesting to see what a country comprising the Baja California Peninsula, California, Cascadia (Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia), Alaska, and Hawaii could accomplish.
