I think I might again be an involuntary donor to the upcoming Democratic campaigns. President Obama will be making his 16th visit to LA, with all the costs and inconveniences that go with a visit by a superpower head of state.

Can I console myself this is about foreign policy? Maybe a meet with experts and officials to better implement the ACA? Meet with people about the new agreement with Iran? Persuade California congressmen about domestic policy?

Nope.
It’s just a fundraiser for the party.
Why during a holiday week? What was wrong with last week or next week?
