Let's make fun of Trump, bash him, etc. while we can!
At least California has a reasonably-liberal governor and legislature now, so I have some hope we can get things better here. More affordable housing is needed and our leaders are working on this. We are leading the nation in energy efficiency and renewables. That's a major feather in our cap. We can't seem to get that fast train done, but I suppose infrastructure is getting built. At least we are willing to pay for what we need. Education suffered for years from when we were a red state and voted against taxes. We are still slowly recovering from this. Immigrants are probably an educational burden.

We are pretty progressive, but we still vote wrong on many voter initiatives. Hispanics are a big portion of our population, and immigrants from everywhere are welcome. They work hard and get ahead. They may not all be liberals on every issue though. But so far, California remains very blue in national elections, and the turning point there was when Republican Governor Wilson attacked immigrants with an initiative. The Republican Party never recovered from that mistake here.

I see Classic Xer likes to attack the current mayor of San Francisco, probably because she's a woman of color. She is not presidential material, but as far as I can see she has a good grasp on what to do and does it. So does our governor; he's very active and can-do and may become president someday. Increasing crime is a problem here, but that may not be unique in the nation. We are below the national average per capita in covid cases because our liberal government is at-least somewhat willing to act on it. We have strong gun laws and have the results from this too, as do most other blue states.
