Trump is going to launch a trade war against California in the next few days.

When I saw the podcast with Charlie Kirk, I presumed it some sort of mistake. But no, the Governor of California apparently enjoys cozying up to the right. "Disappointing" does not quite describe it.

I heard that narrative from AOC when she was here 2 weeks ago. She said we shouldn’t do a “purity test”. So I’m not sure what is happening.

"Purity test" is more extreme than being judgemental. It's using any disagreement to completely disregard someone. If you're not 100% with me, you're just as bad as my enemy.

As an easy example, Kamala and Is/Pal discussion. Didn't matter she wasn't trump. Didn't matter she had policies to help us. She disagreed with me on one topic so she wasn't any better than him.

Yes… I agree. I think that’s what she was trying to warn people about.

Gawd, I hope! But economically speaking, we are not a major contributor so we don’t have a seat at the table, as of yet.
