I guess they didn’t think that virtue signaling will eventually have a pricetag.

> They declared themselves such without asking residents how they felt. <

Back in 2017 the Denver city council voted 10-0 to declare Denver a sanctuary city. The vote actually had the force of law. No cooperation with immigration authorities, etc. Given such a lopsided vote, I’ve got to think that most residents were okay with it.

Denver’s fatal mistake was not including some sort of NIMBY(“not in my back yard”) provision in their law. Too bad for them.

We shall see. Bad habits such as block voting behaviors are stubborn and difficult to change but they do change.

I recall Reagan’s win over Carter in 1980. Right up to a day or three before the actual election, the news and pollsters were still saying Carter for the win, at least publicly. Carter was trounced instead by a public who answered Reagan’s question “are you better off now after 4 years of Carter, than you were before?” Their answer was NO and they voted the Dem out. Parallels to this November? I suspect the DNC knows Biden running will still lose beyond any fraud margin level they dare try, thus the talk of a last minute substitution. How they manage to push Kamal Harris out the door is the million dollar question since she would be the rightful “heir” to being the candidate for Joe announcing he is not running anymore. Can such a thing be successfully finessed that the public “buys into” it and votes for the sub?

It’s a good idea. But, they will extend the concept to any federal reservation: mil bases, national forests, BLM land, etc.

Would still be a good idea - force all the Biden Invaders into camps in those places - but wouldn’t pressurize DC the way we would want it to.

And BTW, if you haven’t been to DC lately, it already looks like that. Spanish seemed to be the dominant language around the Lincoln Memorial or at least it was back in July; the Walmart in Chantilly was like some Hollyweird Wet Dream of Diversity: a Third World rabble gobbling up all the Cheep China Crap as fast as they could.

Their virtue signaling is catching up with them.

Here is a map on the racial makeup of Los Angeles.
It’s an interactive map that will let you zoom out to view the entire country.

Most of Los Angeles is Hispanic.
The blue on the race map represents Whites and mountains.
You can also view politics. Los Angeles is solid Democrat.
View who rents and who owns their homes.
Income is mapped.
Education.
Single parent homes.

Crimes are shown on this map:

There’s neither logic nor common sense attached to the virtue-sniveling losers who are now sitting down to a banquet of consequences of their very bad ideas. They will cling to their narratives and their bullshit until it kills them.

I don’t think so, they need at least another million each, then we can see what happens.

I say give 'em another two million each. Serves 'em right!

Maybe, when they have illegals coming out of their ears, they will reconsider their political orientation.

To paraphrase Margaret Thatcher: Socialism works just fine until you run out of White people to pay for it.

This is going to backfire spectacularly. The entire country is being seeded with illegals from hellholes across the world.

There has never been any level of reason involved. It has and is virtue signaling.

Or when they get defunded at the federal level which is more and more in play but hasn’t come to fruition quite yet.
