” If taxes are too high in those States, it’s nobody’s fault but the voters that vote in people that raise taxes.”

Yes, but the voters who supported high taxes in California aren’t the ones being hurt by the Trump-GOP tax law. The ones being hurt are Republicans who have larger mortgage payments and can no longer deduct them from their federal taxes.

To repeat: Trump and the GOP raised taxes on their own supporters - ie Republicans - in California and other high-tax states. That’s one reason the GOP lost House seats in usually Republican districts in those states.

So you are saying that only Republicans in blue states have large mortgages? Why don’t the Democrats there Have large mortgages?

I lived in California for over 20 years. In several dufferent counties where house prices were reasonable. The only place where house prices are ridiculous are in the three huge metropolitan areas. And guess how those areas vote? They are not red counties by any means.

You sound like CNN, if you repeat a falsehood Twice does that make it true?

There may be a few, but the REDDEST areas of California are inland, with much lower housing costs. The coasts are LOADED with Leftists, as election after election shows.
