Political earthquake will come in wake of LA wildfires: George Will | On Balance

Leadership in California and Los Angeles are being criticized as hundreds lose homes, businesses, schools and more in destructive wildfires. "We built a major metropolitan area in a desert on a tectonic fault. We're risking things," NewsNation senior political contributor George Will says. He says the state's government is busy "micromanaging" its residents' lives when people just want them to get the basics right.

i don't know something tells me california will still not learn anything from this.

California is not only losing population and electoral votes but the people moving out are not the poor, indigent or migrants; the people moving out are the people that can afford to move, the more wealthy tax paying population ! Gaven Newsom has turned the greatest state in our union into one of the least desirable places in America! Great Job Governor!

[shubus]

Wrong! Insurance companies just cancelled most of those policies BEFORE the fire. Those that didn't will declare bankruptcy. EXPECT NO PAYOUTS.

If this doesn't wake voters in California up, I don't know what will. This is where their taxes are going, up in smoke.

Vote blue no matter who. What a brain dead slogan

[lincolnhansen]

If Democrats don't pull their heads out of their butts, even the Hollywood folk are gonna leave the party.

[alanhawkins]

chickens have come home to roost.
A fools parade of democrat incompetence.

[billclancy]

They just voted that mayor in! LA is all about LGBT, DEI, and hard left.

[mwallace]

They voted for this. They pushed for this. They got what they wanted and we are supposed to be sad for them. Really, really.

[dougg]

“ may not go red in presidential elections” but it may go red in local elections? That makes a lot of sense.

[deanfirnatine]

Do not count on Cali not going red, its a golden opportunity for the GOP to win the Governor's office at the least.

[helentallant]

Gavin Newsome needs to go to jail along with his cronies.

[malin]

The result of keep electing woke officials.

[AnnaAnnieAnneofGreenGables]

Insurance for many was canceled proactively before the fire.
Coincidence

I feel really bad for your loss.
But, this gives you freedom to move to a state that welcomes you.

[lizzieb]

Will be interesting to see if these celebrities will be making huge donations to the DNC during upcoming Elections.

I feel for the people who have lost their homes. But, why should people in the other states bail out the poor decisions made by the politicians the people of California elected? If you have fire insurance, great. If not then the State of California can spend their billions to rebuild their State. At some point people have to be responsible for the poor decisions they make.
