12 million is equivalent to the average population of 2 states. The Democrats, who love to lecture everybody about "protecting democracy", are attempting to sway voter demographics in their favor through illegal immigration. California used to be a Republican state till it was turned deep blue through immigration. And one-party states produce the worst, most incompetent politicians, who rise to the top not through the battle of ideas, ability and accountability but through political favors and backroom deals. Gavin Newsom is the perfect example of this.

California continues to be the largest economy in the United States (and 4th largest in the world). If they're failing, they're failing extremely well. I wonder how we get some of that failure in my part of the country?

  They have Silicon Valley and the largest population of any US state. Gavin Newsom gets zero credit for either of these things. You only have to look at how incredibly badly prepared for and managed the palisade fires were to see the level of incompetence under Gavin Newsom. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/u-haul-california/ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/u-haul-california/

    So you're saying a large population is correlated to a very healthy economy? Remind me again why we want to kick immigrants out?

      No I'm not remotely saying that and I thought we were talking about Gavin Newsom? And I'm not wasting any more time with you, it's pointless.

        The topic is "Marines being mobilized in response to LA protests." The protests are about ICE rounding up people on suspicion of being undocumented immigrants. Whether a place being full of undocumented immigrants is actually a bad thing is extremely salient to the topic, especially when the President has decided it's worth pointing the military's guns at our own citzenry over.

        No the topic within this particular sub-thread had diverted to the competency of Gavin Newsom.
