Personal note to Democrats: If you hate Donald Trump and really believe that he yearns to rule as an authoritarian, stop voting for dismal failures like Karen Bass and Gavin Newsom. They’re creating power vacuums with enormous zones of unchecked failure, and those vacuums are being filled.

The examples are everywhere, but start here: In Los Angeles, a long-running animal abuse crisis has been going unaddressed, and is getting steadily worse. An animal rescue activist named Joey Tuccio documents the problem as he tries to solve it, posting an endless flood of videos of caged and wounded dogs dying in homeless encampments.

It’s a parade of horrors in a place of endless degradation.

The Frenchie we just rescued was dumped by breeders who also are dealing drugs & selling guns. It is common that these types........
