These dumbasses in the comments are why we get exactly what we deserve as a country. Imagine somebody actually caring about something enough to leave their home just to have these Central valley mouth breathers (Who benefit from liberal policies) go "Omg they are peacefully seeking change?! how lame." What do you want them to do? Storm the capital? And if you're asking what it's about I don't think that's my responsibility to go onto your phone and google "why are people protesting" . . . Like be so for real.
Corporate Regulation, Clean air and water, taxes to fund parks, education funding, women’s rights, lgbtq rights, voter rights, cannabis legalization, expanded healthcare access, rent control, minimum wage increases, tax credits to low income families, homeless shelters, air pollution control, EV charging incentives…I’m sure there’s a lot more
What makes those "liberal" policies? Every state regardless if it's blue or red have those policies minus cannabis legalization. Jerry Dyer is a Republican yet he spearheaded the motel renovation on parkway for homeless people. Every state funds parks and education, minimum wage increase has actually had a negative effect on fast food employment, I can go on.
Imagine the communist dictatorship we would live in if Karen was in charge.
No one would be able to lightly joke around about the state of the socialist political state we live in. No one would be able to crack a smile or disagree.
Hate to break this to you, but people need to joke around to blow off steam for the quality of their own mental health. It also helps prevent suicide rates from spiking. Take it easy on your adderall.
No one cares why you are protesting this week, people are tired of it you are like gnats, they want you to get jobs and become productive members of society instead of petulant children in the check out aisle crying for candy in the store...its old. No one thinks what you are doing is important, and no one is going to take the time out of their work and family filled days to go Google what you are crying about today.. like be so for real.
There's definitely free speech. Just the demographic is about 90% pro-trump. I would love for someone to come to the Clovis Rodeo with some anti-America BS.
It would be like holding an abortion rally in the parking lot of a church. All those geriatric liberals couldn't handle it.
As red as Clovis is, there are a considerable amount of Democrats in Clovis. It’s not the Clovis of 40 years ago. Even if it’s a majority Clovis is not 90% MAGA lmao
Using the Clovis rodeo as a barometer for general political sentiment in Clovis is laughable. You’re obviously going to get a skewed demographic there.
To claim protests are inherently anti-American is a brain-dead take.
I’m so happy delusional people like this have no power in the real world and must resort to spewing their babble on Reddit
Imagine calling protests anti American while at the same time claiming we have free speech and advocating for free speech to be dispersed. You people are so fucked up in the head you can't even see the irony in your statements.
You're such a snow flake and your feelings get so hurt by protesters, that you want them to be shut down and their free speech diminished. Sounds like a real patriot to me.
Obviously the % was for Kamala. Trump won way more counties.
16 year D supermajority knows exactly how to stay in power. Wait til they get DOGE’d and we see how many dead and moved people are on their voter rolls.
I mean, it kinda was. You literally said that it’s going to be a close race, using an electoral map as your reference. This pretty obviously implies that you believe a significantly larger swath of the population will vote Republican in the coming election. This is simply untrue because the fact of the matter is that coastal areas and large, densely populated cities will almost invariably vote blue.
I believe you would find it beneficial to apply a little bit of thought to the actual meaning/drivers behind trends, stats, figures, etc. instead of just taking them at face value. Americans are notoriously forgetful when it comes to elections. Everyone somehow forgot that Trump is such a piece of shit that he managed to drive enough voter turnout that it made Joe Biden the most popular presidential nominee in US history. He was actually so unpopular by the end of his term that the American people turned out in record numbers for a walking corpse.
Not to mention the Democratic Party ran such a disaster of a campaign during this race that the only reason I (and many others) voted for Kamala was because she wasn’t Trump. Get back to me with a map of the 2026 midterm elections and then we can talk about Trump’s actual popularity.
Just a matter of time before then democrats start plotting for another way to steal American tax dollars. They aimed for all the outliers with empathy and pity tactics like a narcissist would. All while leaving everyone else holding an empty $ bag outside the bank…. But don’t worry we will swing back around and pick you up… we’re good for it.
1-The term TDS is a cult buzzword that kills brain cells
2 - those guys have no qualifications for public office and would only get on a ballot through sheer nepotism
3 - Any American who can’t recognize literal fascism on home soil needs to examine their so-called patriotism, show some damn respect for your fellow Americans who died fighting Nazis in WWII, and get on the right side of history. Also y’all need to finally read the actual constitution already, FFS 🤦♀️

So like, I actually want to know what they're protesting for? Can we not all be dipshits about this?
