Former President Donald Trump ripped California’s liberal leaders at a massive rally in Coachella Saturday, after Hollywood movie star Dennis Quaid took the stage and told the crowd to “pick a side.”
“The radical left democrats have destroyed this state, but we are going to save it. We’re going to make it better than ever before,” Trump said to his supporters, many who braved the 100-degree heat at the outdoor rally.
“We’re not going to let [Harris] destroy our country like she did San Francisco,” Trump said to cheers.
“It’s a paradise lost, but we’re gonna bring it back,” Trump said adding, “Don’t worry about it, we’re gonna bring it back. It’ll happen fast.”
Then he waxed poetic about the great heights that California once represented.
“Through generations of American history California stood as a beacon of what our country aspired to become,” Trump said. “It had everything. It had the weather. It had the water. The state had the best schools, the safest communities, and a booming middle class.
“But all of it was eradicated by the very policies that Kamala Harris now wants to force upon America,” Trump added.
“Today California has the highest inflation, the highest taxes, the highest gas prices, the highest cost of living, the most regulations, the most expensive utilities, the most homelessness, the most crime, the most decay, and the most illegal aliens,” Trump added, “Other than that I think you’re doing quite well.”
The Republican candidate tagged Harris as a radical and harped on her recent media flub.
Harris said on The View, on Tuesday, that she said she would not change any of the Biden administration decisions from over the last four years. Trump has been playing a video compilation at his rallies that features that comment from Harris spliced with news clips that enumerate policy failures of the administration – including the rising home prices and the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan. --->READ MORE HERE

"Reagan" movie star Dennis Quaid rallied for former President Trump in Coachella, California, on Saturday, addressing a crowd in the deep blue state that was once Vice President Harris' turf.
"God bless you. God bless America. I'm here today to tell you that it's time to pick a side," Quaid said on stage. "Are we going to be a nation that stands for the Constitution? Or for TikTok? Are we going to be a nation of law and order? Or wide open borders? Which is it? Because it's time to pick a side."
Speaking in the desert city east of Los Angeles known for its namesake annual music festival, Quaid said he played President Ronald Reagan, his "favorite president of the 20th century," in the 2024 biopic. The actor drew parallels between the political landscape when Reagan was first elected and the present.
"It's amazing how the issues of the 1980 election are very similar to what they are today," he said, recalling the record high inflation back then, as well as the Iran hostages.
"We were a nation in decline. That's what they told us. Ronald Reagan came along and said, no, we're not a nation in decline. We're going there. And we followed him," Quaid said, pointing upwards. "The same with Trump, with President Trump. My favorite president of the 21st century."
The actor said that when he voted for Reagan decades ago, he went home to his roommate in Los Angeles at the time, who asked him who he voted for and told Quaid, "You are kicked out of the hippies."
"I'm gonna ask you a question that Reagan asked America back then, and I think it's the question that got him elected. Are you better off than you were four years ago?" Quaid said. --->READ MORE HERE
