A Bit of Tension in Central California

As previously mentioned, 2GreenEnergy “headquarters” is located in the smallish Santa Ynez Valley in Central California, population 18K, about 30 minutes’ drive inland from Santa Barbara.

As it turns out, President Joe Biden happens to be vacationing here, and not surprisingly, his presence is the subject matter of various points of political controversy.

Interestingly, Biden will be making a speech at a local shopping center.  But why step into the fray, when Trump lost California in 2020 by, shall we say, a “significant” margin (63.48% to 34.32%, close to 2:1)? And that was before Trump was indicted four times.  What percentage of Americans want to re-elect a criminal?

In any case, the local news reports that the extremely visible MAGA crowd wants to assemble, and let Joe know that he’s “not welcome here.”   I’ll try to be out of town when the pickup drivers with the cowboy hats remind us all what it’s like to act like third-grade school bullies.

The pic above represents the beauty of the Valley.  If you don’t mind living among some serious ignorance and hatred, it’s a great place to call home.
