[Am considering starting a series of posts about the progressive’s promised ‘resistance’ movement against Trump’s administration.  These posts would be a place under which to gather thoughts and comments about this newest phase of anti-Trump doings by our Left.  Any thoughts?  gjr]

    George, I’m still voting in your (non-existent) poll, that Harris gets zero primary votes in 2028.
    “Vice President Kamala Harris is telling her aides to keep her political options open as she weighs whether to make another run for the White House in 2028 or for California governor in 2026, sources told Politico.”
    https://dailycaller.com/2024/11/25/kamala-harris-president-2028-california-governor-run-future-report/
    Even Mike Dukakis was quoted “Give it up Camilla. Who is she anyway?” Quite an endorsement, no?
    Equally shocking, that Harris still has aides.

    The fact that Tesla is the only auto manufacturer still in California and that the Fremont facility is the largest car factory in the US just makes you wonder why the Democrats are so crazy. Yes Virginia, they really are insane.

    scenes 7:40 – The hate is a large part of the crazy.
    The hate and the crazy drive each other in a sad dance that ends up going over the edge. Look at the voters in Chi-Town. They got rid of a crazy mayor but voted in a worse mayor. Because he played to the “vote for me to show how much you hate Trump” crowd. Now it’s gotten so bad that even the Dem voters realize what a disaster he is.
    Harris and her team thought they could win by running on a “hate Trump” platform. They just over-played their hand. Their lies and hatred got so unhinged, even the goobers were starting to see through it.

    ‘The looney(sic) bin’ – Hmmm – that would be the NYTs, WaPo, etc?
    No – they wouldn’t want you to know that the left was misusing charitable funds and conniving with the govt to drag a tax-paying American company into court over total BS claims.
    And I thought the left loved it when wrong doing was exposed even if privacy laws were broken in the process. Maybe Hillbilly can explain exactly when that became a bad thing to do?
    Also for light thinkers like Hillbilly – DCI is a private concern. They don’t take money from you and they aren’t an arm of the govt. Your “deep state” comment was just more ignorant blather.
    So – nice try, Hillbilly – you keep your crayons sharpened and keep posting.

    Huh. Is that right.
    I can’t say that I’m surprised. Nevada County is an outpost of the Bay Area after all. Some guy will retire or age out of ‘technology’, grab the husband and pack up the Tesla, and Bob’s Yer Uncle, you overpay for some old house in the area. You end up with a combination of expensive housing, lots of coffee shops, activist local government and non-profits, high interest in ‘tribute’ concerts.
    California makes it darned hard to make a living at gold, timber, or light manufacturing, so these small towns depend on money earned in less honest fashion. Time passes, things change, we’ll all be speaking Cantonese or covered by plate tectonics soon enough.
