He is too dumb to understand how bad this has worked out in other communities.

I don't think he's too dumb to realize it. I think he's just a modern party line Democrat. A lot of LA Republicans were just too stupid to realize it, or they placed moral turpitude over the fact that they were electing a Gov who saw them as the state's piggy bank.

I imagine JBE has to know he's likely a one-term Gov (though don't count out the Republicans' ability to frick that up!). Thus, he's going to toe the party line in an effort to possibly get a Federal position if/when he's voted out and if/when the Democrats take back the White House or a branch of congress. I think JBE knows EXACTLY what he is doing.
