This. I've lived here most of my adult life, am very liberal on most social issues, but absolutely hate the concept of "open borders" and "sanctuary cities" because I've observed over decades how it has destroyed California communities, and decimated the entry level job market.
I cheerfully confess that I vote for democrats when it comes to federal positions in congress and senate, but vote strictly republican when it comes to state legislative positions, because the uber-left wing majority here has turned this state into a walking, talking piece of crap when it comes to the national security of the ENTIRE country, border security for the ENTIRE country, and a power-push to remove border security and immigration enforcement from federal jurisdiction, where is constitutionally belongs, to a bogus "state's right" issue with completely illegal and dangerous "sanctuary cities" and an "open door policy" that endangers the entire country.
That doesn't mean I don't support the valid environmental issues that anyone with a modicum of brain function can see could literally wipe human life off the planet within decades, but they have to choose their damned battles. Do they want to work toward keeping humans from destroying the damned planet, or do they just want to weenie-wag an open border policy that destroys the economic balance while the GOP agenda is too busy giving money to their corporate allies to concern themselves with planetary destruction?
I'm glad I'm old. The self-important belly-bumping of both sides of issues that scream "humans will be doomed if you don't stop" has made me thankful I won't live long enough to see the entire human race go, "Oops! My bad." as they become extinct.
