You don’t get it. 40 years ago California was a bedrock Republican state. Reagan was Governor 40 years ago.
California is now a one-party communist strong hold. It only took 40 years from Reagan to solid communist state.
Well, Regan was US president 20 years ago. The US has about 20 years to go before it is solid blue due to the maturing and colonizing of the states by Hispanics.
The point is, 40 years ago we had Reagan. We stayed Republican long enough to have relatively right leaning governors in Deukmajian and Pete Wilson. Wilson’s last election was 1996, and by 2010, California is solid liberal/socialist/commie thanks to minorities.
Well, GW’s last election was 2004, that puts the USA as deep liberal/commie by about 2025.
Just as there are many conservative counties in one-party California, there will be plenty of conservative states in one-party commie USA.
The Demographics are going to bury us. The GOP is dead and by 2025, the USA will be a one-party Democrat nation. That is the jist of the Salon article, although my spin is to put dates to it, based on California’s fall.
