Checking in from the bay area, the southern border, and deep inland SoCal... We all pretty much hate Trump. I thought deep inland I'd find people who like him... No. No, there aren't any of those here.
If there are any, they are embarrassed by the weird. I get it. I'm embarrassed for those people, too.
Yucaipa (San Bernardino foothills) checking in, some of the old bastards (this can mean men and women) like him but theyre fucking stupid so...yeah. There even used to be a Trump car but it burned last year, critical overheat of the engine. Someone broke the bottom of the radiator while it was raining and then it fucken overheated fast.
So yeah the rural parts of the IE have some trumpers but they aint well liked by us younger folks.
Plenty of them in orange county too. Of course it's the rich areas, actual people who benefit from exploiting employees and tax cuts. The ones I work with are barely competent enough to keep their job and they're lucky the owner is old and tech illiterate, if he chose to update our work flow like other companies in the same industry he would be making more money but also probably have to fire some people here who can't even use outlook or their browser properly.
Unfortunately all those who love him moved to Texas. And few are coming to Oklahoma too. Which makes these places redder then they used to be.
But of course they and bitch about the heat and all the benefits they don't have now thanks to moving out of California.
I live in New York. Donald Trump was born and raised in New York, and spent decades pushing himself onto the local media. He lost his home town by 90%. Twice. The second time, people braved Covid to dance in the streets.
Pretty sure still Huntington Beach loves him. It's such a weird little place now, and sadly became pretty MAGA.
I used to love hanging out around there.
Does it hurt to be in 3 places at once? Or is it just your normal because you were born with this power? Genuinely curious
In Northern California. I love national forests. The overlap of red voting and national forests in California distresses me.

Did you check the north?
We were considering tehachapi until visiting and seeing trump flags everywhere. Plenty of places in OC too. Buy definitely a vast minority in the state
