Seattle has the largest budget of any city its size at 4.8 billion, 12,000 transient homeless, traffic and crime from hell and a thirst for more money which cannot be quenched. Boston is the same size as Seattle, has a police department 2x the size of Seattle's, 1/10th the crime, 200 transient homeless, and a 2 billion annual budget.

I think the "west coast" governments are taking much more money out of the pot than they are putting in. I would love to see some data which suggests conservative states are being supported by "west coast" tax revenue, because I don't think for a minute that is true.

Washington state has the highest consumable goods cost in the country over any other state.
Trump is not even a republican or anywhere near far right, most of the people who support him would never identify themselves as "far right", Id say 50+% would not align themselves with republicans on most issues. Trump supporters care about "America" and "common sense", mostly they are independents and libertarians.
