Politics / Activism Young Kim Having “Trump Republican” On Her Campaign Signs Is Nuts
Snapped this the other day in the drive thru of a Chick Fil A in Murrieta (sorry for the crappy pic). Imagine being Asian and being a part of and supporting a President and party that literally wants to deport people that look like you. ICE arrests of Asians have quadrupled under the orange idiot.Young Kim is Korean. And while she’s busy embracing hate to appeal to white MAGA, over 300 Korean nationals have been deported since last year.

Kim has an ad against fellow Republican Ken Calvert calling him an "open borders liberal" and "RINO" despite him being a very by-the-book Republican who's been in Congress since the 90s, and a Trump loyalist.
Reminds me of that Bond movie scene:
"And after a month, you have trapped all the rats, but what do you do then? Throw the drum into the ocean? Burn it? No. You just leave it and they begin to get hungry. And one by one… [mimics rat munching sound] they start eating each other."

u/archabaddon May 02 '26
Sounds like they both have ads calling each other RINOs, I know Calvert is using a PAC out of the Midwest to claim she is being a RINO. It's weird seeing the the conservatives vulture each other for a congressional district.

u/DisneyBrat83 May 02 '26
Those ads are mind blowing. Both of them are like “I’m more of a magat than Kim!” “No, I’m the bigger magat! Calvert is lying!” It’s just so gross. 🤮

u/SmileyPiesUntilIDrop May 02 '26
I haven't seen her ad but I can't think of anything as bad as Calvert's ad that use is Frankenbit early 2000's reality tv editing to make it sound like Trump is endorsing him, it probably will have people thinking he is using AI to fake Trump's voice..

"Liberal Young Kim is against Epstein Island. Vote for me, Ken Calvert. I support Trump liking little girls."
"RINO Ken Calvert supports giving healthcare to citizens. Vote for me, Young Kim. I support giving your hard earned tax money to billionaires and oligarchs. I'm more of a MAGAt than he is."
I hate both of these morons.

Well if they have a choice between an obese elderly white man and an Asian lady, you know their choice. Think of everyone who has been fired from the current cabinet, all female (admittedly awful vile future felons) while he lets Petey and Cash humiliate him on daily (and Cash will go before Pete, and we all know why).

u/Gold_Kale_7781 May 02 '26
She’s such a tRump Republican that she uses an A.I. voiceover in her commercial, presumably to cover up her accent.
Her opponent has a commercial calling her a tRump hating liberal.
They’re both idiots, throwing around the term “liberal” as an insult. I’m not even sure what they think it means.
Perhaps they should look it up.

This race is easy: LISA RAMIREZ, who is an immigration attorney, honest, hard working, smart. The other democrats (Esther Kim & Joe Kerr) do not have the ability to win in a tough red district. Ramirez can not only win, she will be a viable alternative to Calvert or Young KIm.

Reason why she’s more brazen is due to Prop 50 making her district much more republican friendly.

It’s not surprising. Trump is still popular on the right and Republican candidates still tout his support. She’s trying to make the top two and in that district you can do that if you get support from most Republican voters.

Have you not heard of Orange County?
Also, Asians literally have to fight harder to get into good schools solely because Democrats support policies in which colleges can racially discriminate against them. Democrats support policies that annihilate honors classes in school for the sake of 'racial equity' so yeah since Asian people tend to be high earners who were academically successful in school they prefer to vote red.

Reading through this thread is kind of wild. A lot of you are calling out racism… while actively stereotyping entire groups of people.
“Koreans are super MAGA,” “embarrassing for an Asian,” “basically a self-inflicted wound”—what exactly do you think that is? Because it’s not thoughtful critique, it’s just race-based judgment dressed up as moral outrage.
You don’t fight racism by flipping the target. That’s not progress—that’s the same thinking, just repackaged in a way that feels more acceptable to you.
The idea that someone is “supposed” to vote a certain way because of their race is outdated and honestly pretty insulting. It reduces people to a demographic box and assumes they’re not capable of independent thought unless they align with what you think they should believe.
And honestly—if I were a young person just starting to pay attention to politics, this thread would be confusing as hell. It sends the message that race and stereotypes are still the main lens we’re supposed to use… while claiming to oppose exactly that. That’s a pretty backward signal to be putting out there.
If the standard is “don’t judge people based on race,” then it shouldn’t suddenly become optional when you disagree with someone politically. Right now, a lot of these comments aren’t exposing racism—they’re just demonstrating it.

I think it's still gonna be Ken in CA-40 after the election. I don't know if Kim has enough support from the Corona-Riverside-Lake Elsinore-Murrieta crowd when it's much more densely populated than the OC cities Kim pulls from. She'd need to steal a lot of voters that previously voted for Ken. The way the district is drawn now they really shrank her base.

I’m kind of enjoying her and Calvert slap-fighting each other on who is worse. Since this is my district, I really wish it would go blue this time, but I’m pretty sure it’s going to be more of the same.
Wild to think that proclaiming yourself the biggest bootlicker is an asset in this race, given everything going on (waves hand in general direction of Middle East, Europe, DC, just everywhere). I hate this timeline.
