Dude, congratulations for jumping right into the lion's den.
Are these people as bad and as scary as you thought they would be?
unidentified
Oh, no.
I never thought any of you guys were bad.
I'm actually here just because I wanted to see your point of views and learn more about you guys and try to close the gap between the Democrats and the Republicans.
Well, yeah, you don't think, like, realistically, you don't think the Democrats have completely lost their word that rhymes with it and starts with an SH?
unidentified
I mean, yeah, some of them have gone a little too far with the open borders.
What are 11-year-olds dancing at gay bars with dollars?
Remember that?
unidentified
I mean, as far as the gender thing, I'm like, you know, if you want to identify as it, that's fine, but if you want to force me to say it, then I'm not okay with that, because first and foremost, I believe in free speech, First Amendment rights.
Besides that, everything else, yeah, we're going a little too deep off the rails, and we need to kind of check ourselves and use some logic to see what's actually reasonable and what's not reasonable in this day and age.
Well, whose fault is it that the left has gone so far deep?
Is it the lack of the base, the reasonable base, to reel them in, or is it the fact that the party really has lost its foundation, has no true leaders, and people are hijacking it with crazy, crazy BS?
unidentified
I mean, I partially blame it on the media, mainly on the media.
I mean, someone just quoted her here at the 2016 election telling people, this is America.
You're not dreaming the night of the election.
And you think that's center left?
unidentified
I mean, it's kind of like the same way when, let's say, Obama, when Obama wins, it's always going to be some type of dysfunction, something that pisses someone off.
They're going to say something that they don't think it's the right way.
I don't think necessarily what she said was true.
I mean, I, for in fact, don't hate Trump, even though I'm a Democrat.
I like some of the policies he's put out there.
I like some of the things he's saying, some of the things he's trying to fight for.
Now, the people are so radicalized over there in California that it's come to this point where the politicians are just trying to bend so much to the people's will to make sure they get it re-elected over and over again that they're not really thinking of the consequences of what they're doing.
The policies are trying to implement California, which is why California is in the state it is right now.
But you know, one of our congressmen in California, you know, his platform, including Cisineros in my district, he said that his main stances for the American people were for sanctuary cities and to resist Donald Trump.
To make it a place where they wouldn't cooperate, local law enforcement would not cooperate with federal agencies like ICE or Border Patrol to extradite or criminalize even immigrants who committed crimes or didn't.
I will not be like, I'm not that type of leftist who's going to be like, oh, no, it's not a problem.
We need to let them all in.
No, no.
But I think what needs to be worked is not Trump's zero tolerance policy, but at the same time, I think that it's needed to show how the law.
Because he's just enforcing the law.
And sometimes the best way to show a bad law is to enforce it, to let everyone know.
And I think that's what he's doing here.
I think what needs to be done is to make the legalization process easier to let them in and then they can pay their taxes and then they can be held more accountable for whatever they're doing in this country versus when they're illegal and you know they can just roam about and do whatever they want and not have to worry about taxes or anything like that.
But so if you look at, so ending on this conversation, if California is, in my estimation from looking at across the entire union, is the best example of a state that's almost entirely influenced by Democrat policies, and it's terrible.
And then you look at red states, like Texas, and he's like, wow, this is such a good state.
Then people from blue states are like, let's go to the red states and flip them blue.
Like Orange County, way nicer than LA County, traditionally a red county.
This time it switched all blue.
So in my opinion, Democrats come in and they go, wow, what a great place.
Let's go to that red place and flip it blue and it'll be even better.
And it's like, no, it was good because none of y'all were here.
And then look at your places.
Go to LA.
LA is a piece of shit.
It's terrible.
And I don't mean that in a joking way.
I mean, there's so much human feces on the floor that it makes the news, right?
It's actually becoming a piece of poop.
And so the whole actuality of this is when you go to red-controlled areas, it's like, oh, it's got low taxes.
It's got easy and affordable housing.
You know, there's this idea of the right to work.
There aren't these unions and inflated costs for business owners and business and income tax and whatnot.
And then blue people come in, like my sister, they start moving to Texas because it's better opportunity.
They vote the same stupid ideas that made their state bad.
And how is that helping the country?
unidentified
Well, at the same time, we have to look at how the country, I mean, before it all happened in California, how was California before all that?
Yeah, but I'm saying if the best example we have of the Democrat supermajority is a terrible state, how can we justify trying to make other states more democratic?
unidentified
But at the same time, look at some of the best cities in the country are blue.
