Residents fleeing North are voting against 'policies of blue state America,' economist says

Economist Steve Moore says that people are migrating out of states like New York, Illinois, California, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania and Michigan, and into other states like Tennessee, Texas, Arizona, South Carolina and Florida.

"People are voting with their feet against the policies of blue state America," he said during an interview on the John Solomon Reports podcast

Moore, the author of the book "Trumponomics," noted the U.S. economy's strong performance prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and said he believes that president Trump will secure reelection. He said that when voters cast their ballots, "it's not gonna be a popularity contest, it will be, 'Who do I really think can rebuild this economy?'"

Moore ranked the economic lockdowns amid the coronavirus pandemic as among the top "three or four mistakes in the history of our country."

"I think it could be, you know, years before we get back to where we were because we lost so many millions of businesses," he predicted. He also said that he has been "surprised" by the speed the economy has rebounded to the extent that it has thus far: "We've created 9.3 million jobs in the last three months, that's a lot," he said.

"I really regard China as Japan circa 1939. I really think that's how dangerous they are in terms of their aggressive military behavior and also, you know, their predatory economic practices which we can't put up with any longer," he said.

"I do believe in free trade but it's hard to be involved in free trade when you have a country that is trying to bury you," he explained.

That was just one factor, albeit a big one, the other was the infux of illegal aliens as in many other states.

At this moment, four of the ten biggest states in the USA are former Confederate states: Texas, Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina.

If you like voting liberalism, stay where you are at. Yes, you did it differently from us, but that is why we moved here - TO GET AWAY FROM NANNY STATE LIBERALISM!!!

It was a big mistake to go to war with Japan. They would have civilized China. And all of Asia.

The SOBs who voted over and over and over for the cancer policies that wrecked their cities and states are bailing what they have created only to move to other areas of the country so as to further the continuance of spreading their Leftist DEM cancer. Great. /s
