      For James T and surfside6.

      Conservatives have larger amygdalas, the part of the brain that controls emotion and fear. That’s how Trump controls his base by triggering their fear responses.

      Liberals aren’t scaredy cats like conservatives. They are more open and have a greater intellect.

      If you are a conservative, you have no choice but to live in fear all your born days and whine about it. That’s how Trump uses you.

    Residency should be required. To live in Palmdale is to know Palmdale….
    NO OUTSIDERS!

      I cannot imagine somebody from outside of Palmdale even getting considered. The phony/fireman Mayor likes the Lancaster model of appointing non residents to city boards. I mean Dave Gomez as a deputy mayor of Lancaster when Mr. Gomez is a Palmdale resident. Must be his Union money that Rex really likes because he really isn’t that bright.
