    The title of this message is originally "1&2&3&4&5&6&7&8&9&0&1&2&3&4&5&6&7&8&9&0&1&2&3&4&5&".

    I can't type another character into the title box.

    It all shows when I hit Preview, but I won't know if it makes it until I hit Submit.

    You have extremely poor reading comprehension. I specifically was responding to this statement:

    Welcome Californa and New York as free states in the new world if they chose to leave the union. By all means, let the Red(neck) states keep to themselves as much as they want. They chose disaster for themselves. We should not let them chose disaster for us.

    I'm not the one that made the offer of separating California and New York from the rest of the country. I just felt empathy for the hard workers that were being sacrificed to the liberal nightmare. So I suggested that we should just let the liberal cesspools leave, and keep the people who actually produce something.

    Because I noticed that you didn't mention any restrictions on the "hick states" so they can still get what they want.

    The restrictions of the hick states is that they can no longer sell food, power, or fuel to Los Angeles, British Columbia (Annexed), Canada, or to New York, Ontario (Annexed), Canada. The hick states also can no longer see movies made by ultra-leftist movie stars that think everyone in the hick states are scum, nor can they access the corrupt financial institutions that caused the economic collapse across the hick states a few years ago.

    See? Win-win.

    Have a nice Trump-day. #:^)

    The world can fight climate change only if it can keep uninfluenced by the anti-science movement in the US.
    That can happen only if we deny them influence over global politics and the global economy. The rest of the world has relocate its interests elsewhere, and learn to stand up and say no to USA.
    It may seem radical and impossible and not particularly constructive.. but I don't see any other way forward.
    The point is to allow the civilized world to stay constructive and progressive about the climate issue.

    Trump and his supporters does not want global trade? Fine!
    They want a wall against Mexico. Then let's build one along the Canadian border to USA as well.
    Welcome Californa and New York as free states in the new world if they chose to leave the union. By all means, let the Red(neck) states keep to themselves as much as they want. They chose disaster for themselves. We should not let them chose disaster for us.

    Tell you what -- you can have the Democrat controlled parts of California and New York state, fold them into Canada, and not let them import any food, electricity, or gasoline from the hick states surrounding them.

    I'd call that a great deal for the rest of us.

    A corrupt liar thinks another corrupt liar would be good for a job he doesn't understand. Details at 11.

    Meanwhile, I wonder Trump thinks he can cancel the Paris Climate Accord? WIll he take take some white out to cover over the names of the other signatories?

    It was signed by President Obama, not approved by the Senate. President Trump can remove us from it just as easily. Or, he could really showcase it, and submit it to the Senate for official approval, they will reject it, and then we are out of it.

    To put it bluntly: you can pay Trump $20 to hold up a Dr. Pepper can during a speech. You'd have to pay Hillary first the $20 she is already getting from Coke, and then another $20 for her to hold up your beverage of choice.

    And if she thinks it's too obvious, she will take your $40, then have Bill hand Chelsea a Dr Pepper off to stage left during her speech.

    Just one thing:

    Dear Media: Thank you so much for turning a relatively banal email screwup ....

    Sending and receiving classified documents on unsecured computers is not a "screwup", it is an illegal act. The Secretary of State cannot use the excuse of "I didn't know it was classified", in the same manner that a police officer cannot use the excuse "I didn't know stealing was a crime".
