“Yes, but the voters who supported high taxes in California arent 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.”
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?
Why dont the Democrats there Have large mortgages?
Most Rats tend to be younger non-white people who rent rather than own because they don't have enough money to make a down payment or their job situation may fluctuate too much to justify putting down roots. Of course if property-owners have to pay more in taxes that is generally reflected in higher rents but many renters do not make the connection between lower property tax deductions and higher rents. There is also the fact that Dems like to enact rent control measures.
So Trump's tax measure in 2017 doesn't really hurt California Democrats that much. It just makes life that much harder for property owners, who tend to skew Republican, living in California.
I lived in Orange County, CA until last Year.
That $10,000 Cap pissed off a whole bunch of People who otherwise would have supported Trump and Republicans.
