I had this conversation with another NO KINGS PROTEST marcher on June 14th. We discussed how the demographics in San Diego has changed as well as in LA.

This video shows my own local neighborhood in San Diego which is extremely Blue and liberal. It's about 1/4 mile from my apt and I know that this specific community REALLY hates him!

I have only worn my hand-made "Lock him up" earrings since 2016 and everytime I go into my local stores (Trader Joe's, Ralph's, etc) and doctor appointments I ALWAYS get compliments and they even want to take a photo of them. They are sort of my own, personnal barometer/poll for local feedback.

"But something changed in 2008. Barack Obama won San Diego County, and we’ve been blue ever since. Orange County took a while to catch up with us, but it did in 2016 and 2020, going for Hillary Clinton and Biden".
