How Donald Trump's scorn of California may backfire on him in regards to Tomorrow's 2018 MidTerm Elections.

Tuesday, May 16, 2023 8:23am update: As it turned out, the vote to Impeach Donald Trump would have been 190-185 NO, if California's votes were not included. So, antagonizing California to curry favor with the red states still produced a prodigious backlash for Donald Trump as he lost key California Republican districts which gave California and Nancy Pelosi enough of a California Democrat super majority to allow insurrectionist Nancy Pelosi to create Political Gridlock while the media blamed Trump.  End of Tuesday, May 16, 2023 8:23am update:

It chaps Donald Trump's behind. Hillary Clinton won the 2016 popular vote by almost 3 million votes. California alone was in favor of Hillary Clinton over Trump by 4.3 million votes. A stunning almost 2 to 1 margin in the state with the largest population of voters of all 50 States.

Trump resorted to claiming that there were massive amounts of votes cast by illegal or non residential immigrants in California. So in his pettiness, Trump has used California as a whipping post whenever he feels the need.

But now Trump's pettiness could come home to roost, against himself. There are five California races in Republican strongholds that are neck and neck. These five races in California, were they all to go Democrat, could shift the balance of power in Congress.

However, while this is good news for breaking up the Trump monopoly, it is not necessarily good news for California. The truth is, the ability for Republicans to put up some fight against over taxation from California State Democrats is what has saved the state from even bigger budget deficits and even higher taxes.

Union, Environmental, Immigration and Educational support have given California a Democrat State stronghold that has to constantly find new sources of "revenue" to appease all the groups Democrats are beholden to.

I don't mind a Democrat Majority in California, not at all. I do fear a Democrat veto proof super majority in the California State Legislature as it will lead to more taxation and more prioritizing of immigration rights over senior rights, all because Trump could not play nice with California. So what could be good for the country, breaking up Trump's Congressional monopoly by California voting out some Republican politicians, could be bad for California as it becomes a Democrat Super Majority.
