Tip #1 DONT PRAISE NAZIS. Seriously. Nazis are not popular anywhere, but theyre incredibly unpopular in California. We know this has been an issue for you in the past, so to be absolutely clear: DO NOT PRAISE NAZIS, WHITE SUPREMACISTS OR MEMBERS OF THE KKK WHILE YOU ARE IN CALIFORNIA.
Tip #2 Take a moment and enjoy our beautiful coastline. Its breathtaking, and were very proud of it. In particular, please notice that we have (more than) enough oil rigs on our coast. WE DONT NEED MORE OIL RIGS ON OUR COAST.
Tip #3 Dont try and divide people while youre here. Were incredibly diverse. Were one of the most diverse and inclusive places in the world. Were also a pretty chill group, but when you start attacking any of us, all of us react negatively. (Full disclosure: this isnt so much a tip on visiting California as it is a tip on being a decent human being).
Tip #4 - Do Not Come For Maxine Waters Unless She Sends For You. We know you have some issues with your fiercest critic in Congress. Resist the temptation, bite your tongue, hand your list of racist dog whistles back to Jeff Sessions, and do not insult Maxine Waters. She's a California Icon and you're not in her league. And while we're on the subject...

Bonus Tip! Dont miss Alcatraz while youre here. You could also visit Folsom Prison, where Johnny Cash recorded one of his most iconic songs. Bottom line: We have some famous jails in California, and with the way the Mueller investigation is going, this might be a good time for you to start acquainting yourself with what prisons are like on the inside. (Take plenty of notes for Kushner).
