Californians are blamed for the actions of liberals. People don't understand the history of liberals. Like locusts, yes, but locusts that came from elsewhere. California was a conservative state, the home of Ronald Reagan. California got invaded by liberals from outside the state! There was a huge influx of radical liberals during the 1960s, that accelerated in the decades afterwards.
Nancy Pelosi from Baltimore, Willie Brown from Texas, etc. San Francisco was a long-time Republican city, with an unbroken string of Republican mayors until the mid-1960s. San Diego was a Republican city. Etc, etc.
The locusts came here, destroyed the abundance of California, and are now going to other places to infest. They did not originate here!
My parents moved to California from Long Island, New York in 1974.
My sister and I were already there.
When my family moved to California, we voted Republican (and still do, though not in California). In many elections, we voted straight GOP down the ballot.
I lived there for seventeen years and I saw no shortage of native-born Californians who voted liberal. Then there are the voting age anchor babies, who vote majority RAT.
I understand what you are saying about people moving there from other states, but remember Ronald Reagan moved to California from Illinois.
The flip side of that coin....Barbara Boxer, from New York....Adam Schiff, from Framingham, Mass.....Nancy Pelosi, from Baltimore, MD.....etc.
I think the biggest problem is the illegal alien invasion. Reagan’s amnesty deal, which he regretted later, gave amnesty to millions of illegals who then proceeded to vote mostly for the RAT party. Then there is the anchor baby situation, where illegal aliens pop out a baby and just like that....poof!....an American citizen with voting rights at age eighteen.
The president floated the idea of abolishing birthright citizenship. I wish he would pursue the idea.....it’s many decades long overdue.
