Most people have no clue that Colorado is doing everything California has done and it's getting JUST AS BAD as anything California is doing. Lifelong Colorado residents are moving out of the state because of how bad it's getting and how fast it's happening.
The state of California needs a lot more Elaine Culotti type people to stand up and speak out. It IS a beautiful state but it has been slowly and systematically destroyed over the past forty or fifty years by professional politicians who have had no clue how to run a successful business. Kudos to you Mike for having Elaine on and to her for her strength to stand up!
She will never get a minute on main stream but, like Trump, HIT THE PODCAST CIRCUIT. Get the message out! Elaine Culotti, you rock!
I can't explain how much I admire the fact that Mike has been in TV for so long and still down to earth and seems like a honestly great guy to meet
It’s hard to describe how much I love Elaine Culotti. She is exactly the person who can turn this state around. I’d vote for her for Mayor of LA or Governor of California. If she declares I’ll join the campaign. I’m retired after 30 years of running a business in a state that was hostile to me every step of the way. I agree with her…we’ve “splatted”. It’s time for a real change. And as she says, do NOT vote for anything Newscum wants. This means vote NO on 50. Elaine please run for Governor!!!
She’s wonderful. She almost has me believing California can save itself . Almost
I’ve done exactly what Elaine said 2 years ago. I’m a moderate independent but I changed to republican just to send a message to Newsom and other entrenched Democrats. Elaine is just verbalizing what many of us are thinking . We do need more balance and accountability in California.
Grew up in California. Moved out 12 years ago. California is nuts...............
Native Californian. Grew up in the central valley. Been out of the state since 2016. My family and I took a road trip out there to visit family. I felt such sorrow of what I saw driving north on Interstate 5. The Interstate was lined with garbage, dead orchards, and hazy skies. The worst I've ever seen it. There was such a wholesome farmland beauty in the central valley, and now it has vanished. 😢
Love her positive attitude. We are native Californians and still live here. Our adult kids are here too. Relatives have moved out of state and keep asking when we will move. Right now we will stay. Our family is here. Our church is here. Our friends are here. There are still lovely and wonderful people here doing their best to serve our community and reach people who need love. Our liberal government is a disappointment, however, we believe there is still hope because people need the love of God offered to them.
