BREAKING : One California Democrat is Sick and Tired of TRASHING TRUMP

One Cali Democrat is already tired of trashing President Trump.

Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon had told the California Newspaper Publisher’s Association Wednesday that he’s tired of talking about Trump.  “We’re all doing a great job of talking about Trump and holding Trump accountable . . . If Hillary Clinton had gotten elected president of the United States, we would have started the year with 2.5 million children in California living in poverty. If Hillary Clinton had been elected president of the United States, we would have started the year with crumbling roads.”

Ironically, it’s President Trump who has a plan to fix all of that.

His America Fierst agenda will place the needs of all Americans above foreign interests.

Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon had a message for California newspaper publishers Wednesday: “I’m tired of talking about Donald Trump.”

Led by Rendon and Senate President Pro Tem Kevin de León, Democrats in the California Legislature have been setting themselves up as the resistance to the new administration since before Trump took office. De León in particular has been very outspoken against Trump and the president’s executive orders on immigration, saying the actions conflict with California values.

Rendon’s speech before the the California Newspaper Publishers Association strayed from the typical anti-Trump attack. While Rendon touched on the stark differences between deep-blue California and a GOP-dominated federal government, he told a room full of newspaper executives that his opening remarks at a recent Assembly Democrats Caucus retreat were that he was tired of speaking about the president.

“We’re all doing a great job of talking about Trump and holding Trump accountable,” Rendon said. “If Hillary Clinton had gotten elected president of the United States, we would have started the year with 2.5 million children in California living in poverty. If Hillary Clinton had been elected president of the United States, we would have started the year with crumbling roads.”

He remarked on the importance of telling the stories of Californians who suffer from the state’s housing crisis and transportation issues.

The publishers gathered at the Sacramento Convention Center for its annual Government Affairs Day. The list of speakers included Rendon, de León, Senate Republican Leader Jean Fuller, Assembly Republican Leader Chad Mayes, Board of Equalization Chairwoman Fiona Ma and California Attorney General Xavier Becerra.

Fuller and Mayes each touched on their desire to focus on California instead of Washington. Mayes drew parallels between reactions to Trump and his own party’s anti-Barack Obama stance over the last eight years.

“I think we’ve lost our way, quite frankly,” Mayes said. “I think we’ve gotten to a point, as members of the board of directors, instead of focusing on the things that we’re supposed to, we’ve focused on the politics or just staying in office.”
