Was California not on fire enough for the Golden State's voters?
My wife and I passed some people relaxing on their porch here in California. I wondered how long their "NO RECALL" sign would grace their railing. They are happy, I assume, that Gavin Newsom is still in office.
But why are they happy? What is so truly scary to those Newsom-supporters that they can't imagine him not being in office? Is it that without Newsom, the homeless population might go down? Is it that the tax burden might get reduced? Is it that too many hardcore felons will remain in prison? Is it that California forests haven't yet been completely consumed? Maybe health care needs to be dismantled and defunded, just like the L.A. police, and then rebuilt from the ground up. Do they like Newsom because he sees illegal immigration as the best way to accomplish that by overwhelming the state's health care resources? (My wife and I spent nine hours in the emergency room the other night, and we were disappointed that it didn't take longer.) Or maybe it's just that water shortages need to be more severe? Whatever the reason, Gavin Newsom needed a second chance to make California worse.
Let's leave ballot cheating accusations out of it. There are too many people who actually voted not to recall Gavin Newsom. I know California is its own call of the wild, but nationally, too many people also lined up to cast votes for Biden, Pal Joey, that guy from down under, that basement down in Pennsylvania. What is it about Democrats that they love what their politicians utter but couldn't care less what they do? It's as Jeremiah said: "Every [m]an's words shall be [h]is own burden," 23:36. What burden? Democrats seem not to notice

The left seems to have inverse logic. Down is up, bad is good .....
I read somewhere that this would happen...
Ask Dominion.
Gruesome and the Dems ran against Trump, white supremacy and global warming. They did not try to defend Newsome’s horrible performance in office. Republicans have been so demonized as racists that CA voters prefer Newsome.
Idiocy and herd mentality is contagious are my guesses. /s
Good article. It is true that Dems are likely to have rejected God and any kind of transcendent vision. They have replaced it with the state and a great longing to be controlled and “protected” by the state. This is the promise of every Dem politician, and that’s why Dem voters will vote for them no matter what.
It’s an existential thing.
Because they are horrible people.
Rats are scum — not complicated.
They don’t ,they cheat.
They all think it’s only the other guy who will get hurt.
A couple of things:
1. Cognitive dissonance
2. Demographics is destiny
Let me tell y’all a little story: shortly after my wife and I moved from Denver to Daphne, Alabama in 2012, a fellow was at my house doing some electrical work. He was, like many others here, a RABID Crimson Tide fan. Some of you may not know how strongly the depth of feeling is here concerning the football rivalry between the Tide and the Auburn Tigers. Anyway, he told me that he would rather see Alabama LOSE than see Auburn WIN! I think that mentality is what drives the democrat herd these days, cutting off their noses to spite their faces. Otherwise they might have to admit they were wrong.
I’m not so sure that half of America does. In order to believe it, I’d have to believe in the integrity of the vote... I do not.
I agree with you to an extent.
Democrats are also controlled and manipulated through a combination of hate, greed and envy. A lot of them want to live a celeb’s life.
It’s always someone else’s fault you aren’t driving that Mercedes, Porche or Rolls.
Often, they live beyond their means. Even when their means is substantial.
My whackjob SIL is a case in point.
The sad thing is that in the US, as in Canada last nite, there is about 40 percent of the population that will support the leftists no matter what. At most, Trump could win 52-55 percent of the vote even if Biden showed up on stage wearing diapers with a pacifier in his mouth. The real problem is that we have little in common with these people, in my view, less all of the time. We have loudmouth, self-important generals who haven’t won a war in 76 years; an immense federal bureaucracy; schools that have been taken over by communists who spoon feed their hate to your children; colleges that are a ghost of their former selves; and self-benefitting politicians like Pelosi (worth $ 117 million) who blast capitalism while profiting mightily from it. Where does it go? I don’t know.
Indeed they are. I do not consider them to be real Americans.
When the media and the opposition paint a black man - Larry Elder - as a white supremacist, we are through the looking glass.
Because they are told to vote in that way by celebrities, political media influencers and 88 year old congressmen they have always voted for.
These folks do not think for themselves politically and dont want the bother.
