Democrat voters will vote for ANY person, the more brain dead and corrupt the better, and they all vote in a block. That is the danger. Republicans vote for character and accomplishments and thus often are split on who to support. Democrats do not care about character or accomplishment's, only that they win, and they will vote as a block even while holding their nose over their own candidate. Republicans will lose unless we do two things. 1) Eliminate RINO's from our ranks who make it appear that we won an election only to find RINO's are stopping us more than Democrats, and 2) Learn to stick together and vote as a block like Democrats. Otherwise in 3 years we will be right back where we started, or worse.
Well, Henry, I have a few words to say on your article. I see you’re happy that DEI has vanished. It seems you’re against the disabled and minorities, which includes women having equal opportunities. You’re happy that global warming has been put on the back burner. As for children being mutilated, that was a QAnon maga fallacy. You also mention men pretending to be women has lost its luster, you must be speaking of Drag Queens. Let me tell you the Drag Queens have not lost their luster, it’s just that the red hat maga campaign brigade speeches are no longer needed to rile up tacos supporters.
You write about cursing and no point being made, that is so true. I hear taco using four letter words in his tirades during his interviews, and he rambles on and on, and never comes to the point. You might not realize it, but Newsom is not trying to be like taco, he is actually mocking him and his bluster. As for the voters being suckered in, we actually saw that November 5th of 2024, taco suckered them in, hook, line and sinker., and yes, we as a country are all suffering now.
Ineptness is all over DC now. Leaders are not made, they just are. Wish we had one. I miss living under “ole Joe”, a real president. Diminished capacity or not. The taco administration is completely incompetent starting with taco all the way down to his flunkies.
I hope the Right have an epiphany and sees the truth where we’re headed. Seems like we’re halfway there, living under a dictator and Marshal law. taco said, “I am not a dictator”, do you remember someone saying “I am not a crook”?
At least taco is giving the people what they need and want and tending to his presidential duties. Here’s a few examples. The people got unnecessary flagpoles on both sides of the White House, when there’s one sitting right on top of it already, cementing over the Rose garden because women’s heels sink in the grass, well don’t have events when it’s wet and muddy, taking over the Kennedy Center planning to name it after himself or the Mrs. or both, and making himself chairman of the board, giving pardons to celebrities and criminal insurrectionists, building a ballroom, he’s become a decorator in chief of trashy, tacky junk, and creating a gallery of homages to himself in the WH, using the DOJ for personal vendettas against anyone who investigated any of his crimes, and building his personal wealth. Just a few of his many accomplishments, I’m sure the people are grateful.
So taco is trying to bully his way to a Nobel peace prize? He has not ended any wars, he has not stopped any wars. What he does is do a quid pro quo with the countries . He promises them favors in return for a nomination for a peace prize. In fact, a lot of these countries have been in ongoing peace talks and treaties from the previous administrations. Do you think Netanyahu would’ve nominated him if he hadn’t bombed Iran for him? .
You say taco is returning killers to their home countries? I don’t think Kilmer Abrego Garcia was born in Uganda or a killer, also it sounds like you’re labeling all deportees as killers. Protecting children? From what? Do you mean, like the shooting that took place today in Minneapolis killing two and injuring 17 others?
I just hope his tariffs cover all his frivolous expenditures because I’m sure he’s already raised the national debt by billions. Which, of course falls back on the taxpayers.
I would like you to list what Trump has done wrong. Not silly things like flag poles. We know liberals don't care much for the American flag. The things you are picking is out of desperation trying to find something, anything, other than the border is closed, billions are rolling in from tariffs. Murders and rapists, drug dealer and child traffickers are being rounded up and sent home. Stock market through the roof. Gas prices the lowest since Trump left office the last time. You parrot all the same things the media uses. To desperately nit pick at nonsense. It doesn't matter what Trump does. His list of wins for America has grown so long. It's like that old comment a few years ago. News Headline: Trump walks on water. Proves he can't swim. Somehow the hatred for this one man has to stop. He's not running again. Everything he's doing is for you and the country. He doesn't care who hates him. Our nations capital hasn't had a murder in weeks. Does that mean going in cleaning up the city was horrible? Or does having a half dozen murders last week in Chicago acceptable? I don't understand this bizarre thinking. Hatred clouds all common sense.
There are 10,367,321 registered voters in California. The Democratic Party has 45.27% of them tied up. There are 2,381,000 union members in California. The Democratic Part has 59% of them according to Pew Research. The registered Democrats are fiercely loyal and do not regard the Republicans have anything to offer them. The Democratic Party Politicians and the Unions are hand-in-glove with mutual contributions. The Republican Party is not a serious competitor with only 24.5% of registered voters. These numbers won't change much, until the Republican Party gets new leadership and recruits new members.
I’ll tell ya what to take away from all this Henry - how crafty _and successful_ the Democrats really are! We float along on a high cloud while they lie, cheat, steal, and . . . get all the marbles! They realize the average chump on the street doesn’t have sense enough to come in out of the rain, let alone ponder what’s fair and right, so while we’re acting like boy scouts at a knife fight, they play dirty and walk off with the trophy.
Screw that - we Republicans need to get mean. We need to get loud. We need to throw elbows, and shove our way back to the front. CA politics isn’t a Sunday picnic — it’s a back-alley brawl, and the meanest fighters walk away with the purse.
We’ve got two choices: keep drifting along in la-la land and watch them strip us blind, or grit our teeth, and fight like Democrats!
What is now becoming clear is unless the bigoted Dem's are willing to have open and free elections, with a complete cleansing of voter rolls there will be a 2 State Option.
The once great State of Calif. will become a footnote in failed political history.
Soldiers have a DUTY to refuse to obey unlawful orders. "Just following orders" is not a defense (Nuremberg Trials). "All I did was shove them into a conveyance." "All I did was put a 10-year-old terrorist alien into a cage." "All I did was turn on a gas valve." If your moral compass is telling you that Trump's order is illegal, see UCMJ Article 90 and CALL the G.I. Rights Hotline (877) 497-4487. You are NOT alone!
It is a sad state of affairs for the Democrat party that their best horse in the stable is someone as deranged and seemingly slick as Gavin Newsom. Let’s pray that the same American voters who put Trump back in for a second term will see the folly of giving the Democrats any more seats in the House or Senate in the coming election, and God forbid elect somebody as awful as Newsom in 2028.
In response to my comment on this article the question of Independent voters was raised.
According to ChatGBT , 23.3% of California registered voters are designated as Independent.
Among all Independent voters, 39% normally vote for Democrats, 26% for Republicans and 34% are swing voters.
There are, I think, a number of reasons voters identify as Independents when registering as a voter. One is that they think it is nobody else's business to know which party they favor. Another is that they are tired of getting bombarded with funding requests if they advertise their party preference. There are probably other reasons as well. The percentages above show that there is some likelihood of Independents, overall, favoring the Democratic party, if we split the swing voters equally between the two parties, and include the fact that the Democratic party has super-majorities in both houses of state governance.
HOPEFULLY, the lawsuit filed will SMACK down this "proposed election". I won't hold my breath but I'm glad some are fighting back!
The problem that the Democrat Party has is that it does not know what it believes.
Berney
You are likely correct, but they will never say what they believe or put it in print.
Democrat voters will vote for ANY person, the more brain dead and corrupt the better, and they all vote in a block. That is the danger. Republicans vote for character and accomplishments and thus often are split on who to support. Democrats do not care about character or accomplishment's, only that they win, and they will vote as a block even while holding their nose over their own candidate. Republicans will lose unless we do two things. 1) Eliminate RINO's from our ranks who make it appear that we won an election only to find RINO's are stopping us more than Democrats, and 2) Learn to stick together and vote as a block like Democrats. Otherwise in 3 years we will be right back where we started, or worse.

The one party state. How did this happen?
The top 2 is part of it. They vanquished their own opposition on the Left.
May the Force be with you, and white sabers win.
Good comment
Fully agree with you.
What is now becoming clear is unless the bigoted Dem's are willing to have open and free elections, with a complete cleansing of voter rolls there will be a 2 State Option.
The once great State of Calif. will become a footnote in failed political history.
