September 28, 2023, Anaheim, Calif. —The Commander in Deceit, Donald Trump, along with DeSantis, Pence, and McCarthy, will all be in Orange County this Friday at the Anaheim Marriott for the GOP convention. Trump isn’t welcome here and Democrats will make sure he knows it! There will be Monopoly-themed signs, costumes, and fun.
Five Democratic Party organizations are participating – The San Bernardino County Democratic Party, Democratic Party of Orange County, Los Angeles County Democratic Party, California Young Democrats, and Grassroots Democrats HQ. Media availability will begin at 10:30 am, and a speaking program will start at 12:00 pm.
Donald Trump left office with nearly 3 million fewer jobs than when he entered office – the first time that’s happened to an administration since the Great Depression.
“Trump’s extreme MAGAnomics agenda hurt autoworkers, shipped jobs overseas, and lined the pockets of the big corporations at the expense of the middle class,” said Ada Briceño, Democratic Party of Orange County Chair. “Democrats are determined to win in 2024 because our values reflect policy that helps everyday Americans and protects our Democracy.”
“When the leading candidate of a major political party is under indictment for attempting to overthrow free and fair elections, every voter needs to stop and think about where our country is headed,” said San Bernardino County Democratic Party Chair Kristin Washington. “The last thing any American needs is to relive that madness.”
“In the wake of Trump’s policies, immigrant families were torn apart, our economy left in disarray, and our global reputation mocked. Re-electing President Joe Biden is our lifeline to correct these egregious wrongs, to rebuild our nation’s pride, and to restore our standing in the world,” said Los Angeles County Democratic Party Chair, Mark Gonzalez
California Young Democrats President Giovanni Chavez added, “Former President Trump is actively trying to overthrow our democracy and run our country into the ground. While he’s in jail, we will deal with his failure to act on climate change and the damage he’s done to our democratic process. Young people will turn out in 2024 to make sure he doesn’t make it back to the White House.”
“Republicans have made it clear: the GOP is now the Party of Trump,” says Melissa Grant, President of the Grassroots Democrats HQ. “We can’t go back to Trump’s disastrous policies that led to millions of job losses, rampant corruption, and the repeal of our freedoms that we hold so dear.”

About the Democratic Party of Orange County
Once famously known as “Reagan country,” after President Reagan called Orange County the place where “all good Republicans go to die,” Orange County is rapidly shifting from a Republican stronghold into a highly diverse Democratic metropolis. Over the past four years, Orange County Democrats built a lead in voter registration and now outpace the OC GOP by more than 80,000 voters.
Chairwoman Ada Briceño, a longtime labor organizer, Co-President of UNITE HERE Local 11, and Democratic National Committee member, is the first immigrant and second Latina to lead the Democratic Party of Orange County.
Orange County Democrats keep scoring historic victories in recent elections. In 2018, they famously swept all seven Congressional seats in Orange County. In 2019, OC Democrats overtook countywide voter registration to become the region’s leading political party. In 2020, OC Democrats flipped 20 local seats and two state senate seats from red to blue, including in deep-red areas of the county. In 2021, voters elected Katrina Foley to the Orange County Board of Supervisors – the first female Democrat to serve on the Board. In 2022, Democrats won a majority on the Board of Supervisors for the first time since the 1970s with the election of Supervisor Vicente Sarmiento.
Orange County is the nation’s sixth-largest county, with 3.2 million residents and more than 680,000 registered Democratic voters.
Oh great, now the nut jobs like Vern Nelson, Greg Diamond, Jose Moreno and Victor Valledares are going to come out of the woodwork (Diamond especially if they are offering free sandwiches).
I know how important this election is for America and how dangerous Trump is, but if we are relying on the unemployed clowns at the Orange Juice Blog to defend our liberties, we are, frankly in deep shit!
