Have you ever dreamed of moving to California?

At one time, it was a dream for many to move to California. Now just the opposite is happening. It used to be go west, young man; now it’s seeing California in my rear view mirror.

I have to admit, when I was younger, I wanted to move to California to be an actor and singer. It was my dream. I’m so glad that my folks talked me out of it. I will go into why people are leaving California.

At one time, California was a hot spot for anyone who wants to be famous. It’s used to be a red state. Now it’s a state full of fruits and nuts; and not the kind you eat.

When did California went from being a red state to a blue state?

For many years, the Republicans Party was the dominant force in California politics. Yet the state was never overwhelmingly conservative. It was a leader of the national Progressive movement of the early twentieth century and for decades continued to support a range of liberal policies even under Republican governors. Democrats began to gain ground in the 1950s and the 2 parties were highly competitive in the 4 decades between 1958 and 1998. In the 1990s, California began to shift from a competitive two-party system to Democratic control. Today, the Democrats have gained near total control over California, making it the nation’s most consequential blue state.

For many years, the Republicans easily won California and Texas. It wasn’t until 2000, that California turned blue.

Most Hollywood stars and producers of the past were Conservative; but their focus was on making movies more than politics. Now, Hollywood are more inclined to vote Democrat. Most of them get more political rather than focus on making good movies. They used their star status to speak for the rest of the country. Well, I’m here to tell them, that they do not speak for the American people who lives in the Midwest. They should stick to making movies and keep their political beliefs out of it.

California Governor, Gavin Newsom has become a poster child for the new Left of the Democratic Party. They have groomed him and built him up much like they did Barak Obama.

The truth about Gavin Newsom is though, people have been leaving California more and more under his watch. The taxes are high. The economy is very poor. Crimes is at its highest. Homeless and drug abuse are at an extreme high. Just go into any major cities in California, you will be stepping over homeless people and needles for those addicted to drugs. Businesses are closing their doors and leaving California.

There population is shrinking. As their population shrink, they also lose electoral college delegates.

The biggest fear for California used to be a big earthquake happening, that would literally break the state off the rest of the country. Now, that’s just like so what!

California been known to be a beautiful state; but they have had so much fire the last few years. The fire been destroying a lot of trees, homes, and wildlife.

There are fewer than 120,000 acres, or 5%, of the original redwood forest remains today.

During the Pandemic, under Gavin Newsom leadership, there have been more death in California by Covid. A lot of these deaths were elderly people in the nursing homes. He was all for shutting everything down, from businesses, schools, and even churches.

Other blue states governors look up to Gavin Newsom and try to duplicate him for their state. Minnesota governor, Tim Walz sees Gavin Newsom as some sort of god. He wants Minnesota to be like California when it comes to getting electric cars for example.

Whereas the red states such as Florida, Texas, North Dakota and South Dakota ect, are booming.

Few months ago, Gavin Newsom had a debate with Florida governor Ron DeSantis and got his ass whipped. Proving that Ron DeSantis is a way better governor than Gavin Newsom.

Not just California, but the state of New York is also losing people, as the good people are moving away and going to such state as Florida. As they lose people, they also lose electoral votes as well.

What get me, those on the Left hates our Conservative values; but yet they want to move to the red states for the better economy. Are they jealous of what the red states have to offer?

Like the song goes, Heads Carolina-Tails California, I’m so glad that I never moved to California like I wanted to. I may complained about the winter in North Dakota or how cheap North Dakota is; but at least we have a better economy.

If California does get hit with the great earthquake that cut them off from the rest of the country, it would be good riddance of all the fruits and nuts that live there. Maybe, a wall should be built around California to keep those in and away from the rest of the country.

I don’t mind if the good people of California leave for greener pastures; but they must leave their Leftist views behind. We have enough crazy people, we don’t need anymore of those fruits and nuts.

Are you California dreaming or California leaving? Are you tired of poor economy, high crimes, high homeless and drugs rates? Do you want to go where there is greener pastures? You are welcome but don’t bring your Leftist views with you!

The Democrats is grooming Gavin Newsom to become President. Why would the United States want what California has? He doesn’t speak for the good people of this country, especially me. I would pick Ron DeSantis over Gavin Newsom any day.
