Many people are saying that the Trump administration using California as a testing ground for their ICEhole fantasies for political purposes has galvanized anti-Trump sentiment in ways nobody has ever seen before. Additionally, the factor of California going through its Republican officials-punish-immigrants phase via Prop 187 in 1994-2000 , leading to decades of Democratic party preference in response, further bolsters Californians in meeting this moment.
