California could be in play.

Further, Conservatism gets buzz when our national figures come here and espouse Conservative views.

Trump not only hurts his own chances in the state, he also shortchanges Conservatism in the state.

Folks wonder why California is rock solid Left. Hey, we haven’t had a presidential contender vie to the state in 30 years.

Dole came here one day, fell off a stage and left. Other than that, bupkis.

It’s as if our party already thinks California is Mexican territory.

I am in LA County. The county line runs between two houses, making things interesting if that became a state line. The people living in OC HAVE TO drive through LA County to leave their homes.

If Trump has any hope in California we are looking at a historic landslide and it won’t matter where he makes appearances.

Hillary is spending heavily on TV ads in California... I am not sure why she is doing so, if California is so heavily liberal...

“It’s as if our party already thinks California is Mexican territory.”

We are in all but name.

The gift of the 1986 Amnesty and the Bush/No Borders Republicans. Reagan’s biggest mistake was trusting that bunch.

You don’t ask folks to vote for you. They don’t vote for you.

By filling arenas with 10,000 people, you create buzz. Yesterday he held a rally. In the 24 hours since, there have been 238,908 views.

If he held four events in California, over a million people would view his events, not to mention the 25-40,000 people who would attend.

It would make a huge difference.

Hillary is spending on TeeVee ads in California because her crooked advisors make money via graft on these very very expensive ads.

BTW - the ads are actually helping Trump, they are counterproductive for Hillary

The cheat machine is oiled and running well in CA. Trump shouldn’t bother. Other states will determine the outcome as CA will never be in play.

No, the numbers don’t lie. If he shows up in the state a few times he’ll have 25-40,000 people attend. The word of mouth on that would be quite big.

The press would have no choice but to cover it, and it would make a very big difference.

There’s no draw for the general public in California to watch a video from South Carolina.

He needs to show up in the state.

Advisers...

Here we go again. I think Trump would come here, but his advisers tell him not to.

Reagan’s biggest problem will be Trump’s too if he doesn’t watch out.

The advisers will supply bad information, and the candidate will be hard pressed to ignore them.

I agree with your take. Reagan trusted that bunch and it was a big mistake.

BTW: The globalist Bush and those who followed would have sold us out amnesty or not. We would probably have about as many illegals as we do now, if the amnesty hadn’t gone through.

While I do understand the draw of an amnesty having been given, I still think we would have been sold down the river just the same either way.

Reagan’s choice for VP would have been Paul Laxalt, the Governor of Nevada and as close to Reagan as anyone in politics. What could have been....

I heard on the news this morning, on the radio, that Hillary is now competitive in Georgia and Arizona. One poll has her leading in Arizona by +1. People in both states will come to their senses before Nov. 8.

You would also have eight U.S. Senators instead of two. At best, one or two would be Republican.

I still am seeing Hillary stickers in L.A.

Only saw one Trump sticker on a truck on the freeway (just passin thru).

Looking at the Emmys the other night, that whole theater, there are your stupid Hillary voters in a nutshell. Only Liev Shreiber and Jon Voight would vote Trump. And I’m not sure about Liev.

It is very unfair that CA is a bloc. Agreed it should be by county or district.

Do you want Cali to have 6 or 8 senators?

You have a point. Inside the OC rallies was a powerful place. It was nearly magical to be with that many likeminded in this liberal hellhole. It would be amazing if diversity of thought were ever considered here along with melanin.
