Way to fight back. The welfare staters can’t win a battle of boycotts.

Lots of Phoenix residents have summer homes in SD because of the extreme Phoenix heat.

Leftists Pols and idiot RINOS who "want their cake and eat it too"!

Even if you never considered going to California you can notify your congresscritter you don't want your tax dollars to bailout the irresponsible California politicians when they come to Washington and ask (i.e taxpayers)to cover their "Welcome Mat" support of illegals and boycott of states who dare not to.

Already do. Apparently it works better with some companies than with others.

Give it a decade though. :)

I’m with you. We can play their game as well or better than they can.

In my experience, this is a characteristic of liberals. They think they can pull the trigger without receiving return fire.

I know we are only joking, but in all seriousness, I learned in Business 101 that when you are buying a product you are, in a sense, voting for it. for several decades I have been consciously voting for and against companies with my dollars.

"Try South African, they're great."

I like Chilean wines also. Stable, non-commie South American nation. Inexpensive, as well.

“Apparently, retirees are literally holding meetings at clubhouses around Phoenix to boycott traveling to cities boycotting AZ!”

That’s after they’ve censured the guy living over in unit 12, phase II for the lawn being 1/4” too high.

Well, it is pretty hard to get to San Diego riding a golf cart.
