'Fear and anger': California town halls are not going well for Democrats, either
SF Gate ^ | 03/25/2025 | Lester Black

Americans are increasingly concerned about President Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s gutting of the federal government, with polls showing a majority of people want Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency cuts to be stopped or slowed down. That’s left Republicans largely avoiding constituents, but it also hasn’t been good news for Democrats in California.

California Democrats were lambasted at a series of town halls over the past week, with constituents demanding the party do more to stand up to billionaire Musk’s cuts to government services.

“I want to know why in the world the Democratic Party hasn’t fought yet?” asked one resident at a town hall Rep. Ro Khanna hosted in the Inland Empire on Sunday. Khanna, whose district includes Sunnyvale, Cupertino and Milpitas, hosted events in three Republican-held districts in the Central Valley and Orange County over the weekend. At each one, Politico said, Democrats “were unambiguously being put on blast.”

At a separate town hall in Orange County, hosted by freshman Democrat Rep. David Min on Thursday, over 1,000 people attended, including one resident who said it seemed like Democrats were “quietly sitting and doing nothing,” according to the OC Register. Min told the crowd that he feels “the same anxiety, fear and anger that so many of you expressed to me.”

Democratic Rep. Gil Cisneros made a similar comment during a fiery town hall in Los Angeles last week, telling his audience, “I’m on your side.” One resident had told Cisneros, “I just wish that the Democrats would match my anger and my fear,” the Los Angeles Times reported.

More Horsepuckey from Horsepuckey Central.

They are VERY concerned about all of the idiotic Judges thinking they are the Commander In Chief. Talk about enemies foreign and domestic.

Why do Democrats want to fight for their party when they have nothing to offer?

They should be afraid. At long last, the parasite gravy train is finally coming to an end.

Should these parasites have equal say to those of us who *PAY* for their free money?

I say "no." Taxpayers should always be seen as more valuable and significant than government teat sucking parasites.

Do I care what the parasites think? No I do not. I don't want to hear their opinion, and I want them to get a beating if they try to tell me they deserve money they don't earn.

The difference between our side and theirs is that our side *PAYS* the cost, while their side contributes nothing of value and incurs huge expenses for the rest of us.

This is a good example of complacent fools becoming upset when bad policies affect them on a personal level.

If something doesn’t affect them, they don’t care but let it touch them personally, they get upset.

They are incapable of seeing the big picture at all.

They are fighting. They just consistently fight on the 20% side of an 80/20 issue.

Thanks for posting that map. I’d bet a national map is similar.

“were unambiguously being put on blast.”

What in the world does that even mean?
