The south was burned to the ground when they tried to secede. Enough of the country hates California that it probably would happen again if they tried. And the 35% of Republicans in the state would probably help.
Perhaps. California has loads of money and access to lots of technological infrastructure. They could potentially seize tech companies' operations and deprive the rest of the country of things like their Gmail, YT access, operating systems, etc. GDP is very translatable to power imo.
