10. Whomever the Republicans nominate in 28 will be tied to Trump by the neck,

Monday

or we will have failed at our job---
and Trump not being on the ballot in 28 is a weakness for the GQP, not a strength...

As for the 'affordability' issues in California, the governor of the state
is 'sailing against the wind' in his power on that issue,
compared to the power of national GQP policies working against him...

Democrats, and I daresay independents who decide every national election,
want a FIGHTER against Trump and GQP Trump maggot policies,
and I think that sentiment will overrule any wonky GQP counter-arguments about
the 'affordability of California'...
