Following the election of Donald Trump to the White House, there has been a growing level of resistance toward him and his Executive Orders. The most recent dealt with a travel ban on citizens of certain countries.
Now it seems the state of Washington has become the hotbed of resistance. It is one of the states with both Democratic Governor and legislature. It definitely is a left-leaning state.
President Trump has threatened to defund California for its behavior post-election, and Washington has begun preparing for the same thing. It may be setting itself up to become a “sanctuary state.”
Is this a product of our system of freedoms? Possibly. It also seems to be treading very close to the edge of anarchy. Could it set the stage for other states to follow? Again, possibly.
But consider this: Is this what our enemies around the world want? Probably.
A frightening thought.
