    IMHO, Californians are getting what the majority of Californians voted for. The question is how did so much of the electorate get programmed to vote that way and how could it be de-programmed? Maybe they have to hit "rock bottom". I live in western NY and see the same. NYC is about to vote in a truly commie jihad mayor that will have an effect on the whole state.

      I used to believe it wasn't a majority that a LOT of ballot stuffing set the tone.

      But I recently spoke with otherwise intelligent Californians... Only to discover that they don't ANYTHING. Terms like MSM (Main Stream Media), no idea. Concepts like "Billions are being spent on homelessness in ways that ensure we get more..." (Never bothered looking into it, it's a problem because of the weather here...)

      OMFG. Even if they are NOT voting for it. They DESERVE IT. The independents should control that state. And those are the ones I spoke to. They know the left is crazy... But they consider the Right to be Heartless and Dangerous.

      And it STARTS in the Education System. One of these guys has a father who was a school teacher. Typical Leftist, TDS to the max. But he feels he's a moderate, but hates Trump because he's not a moderate, and those mean tweets.

      I am done talking to them. More cities need to burn to the ground. ICE needs to be there more, not less!

    For a few years now I've been saying that Gavin will be elected president. People reacted in a way that showed total disbelief. "Abaco's nuts!" Now...I can see the fear in their eyes. They don't know why...But, they know deep down that we've gotten to a farcical level where this is actually a possibility! Now, I make it very clear. When (not if) Gavin gets on that debate stage his detractors will mention the things like the hydrants being dry and lakes being emptied as some of the most beautiful neighborhoods in the western US burned to the ground. He's going to look into that camera and, with that angry facade he's adopted like we're supposed to be intimidated by this mamby dolt, and he'll say, "There were no fires in LA". The media will cooperate with his gaslighting. And, if you say you don't like it you'll be called a Nazi. Then, he'll be elected. Oh yes. I can see the fear. We're that stupid...

      What you predict can scare even a dino. Yet I have hope that voters swayed by the Turning Point phenomenon that's cranking up and a Trump successor such as J.D. Vance shall overcome the Jackass Party horrors that commies in "mostly peaceful" sheep costumes yearn to inflict.

    Sent this article to all your democrat voting friends and have them debate it with you. Add in at least the first and second amendments to the debate.
