Hollywood's voting patterns may be altered by the California wildfire catastrophe, predicts Dean Cain.

California's leaders were accused of "mismanagement" by the star of 'Lois & Clark' for the destruction caused.

Hollywood's voting patterns may be altered by the California wildfire catastrophe, predicts Dean Cain.

Dean Cain, who grew up in Malibu, California, stated that all of the homes he once resided in there and in nearby Pacific Palisades have been destroyed during this week's Los Angeles-area wildfires.

"Cain stated that he had three different homes in Pacific Palisades, one that he owned and two that he rented and lived in. However, all three of those Pacific Palisades homes were destroyed, leaving the area looking like it had been hit by a nuclear weapon and flattened. Cain also mentioned that three of the houses he lived in Malibu were also destroyed."

The "Lois & Clark" actor described the devastation as "shocking and horrific, yet not surprising. It was one of the reasons I left California due to the poor management and leadership."

In 2018, the Woolsey Fire burned Cain's backyard but not his house.

"In Malibu, we are accustomed to dealing with wind and fire, so we know how to handle it. However, when all the necessary tools, such as money, brush clearance, and controlled burns, are taken away, the situation can become catastrophic, as we have seen in this instance."

Although his house survived the Woolsey Fire, Cain's fire insurance was canceled afterward, which was one of the reasons he left California for Henderson, Nevada, in 2018.

The California wildfires have destroyed multiple homes that Dean Cain once lived in.

"President Trump and many others have repeatedly warned about the consequences of mismanagement, including the removal of money from the fire budget and failure to implement controlled burning, which will ultimately result in significant costs."

Cain placed the blame squarely on Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom.

"Gavin Newsom screwed up, and he said so himself. There was plenty of water last year, with record rainfall. Snowmelt and reservoirs ensured the water was plentiful."

In Malibu, Cain's water bill was in the thousands per month, and he couldn't obtain fire insurance for less than approximately $40,000 annually.

His son helped him realize that he should leave the state by reminding him that he frequently complains about the tax policy and the lack of common-sense policies. Why are we living there?

"I was like, ‘Why am I here? What am I doing?’" he said. "Leaving my home forever and coming to this beautiful home in Henderson, Nevada with strong policies such as castle doctrine and stand your ground laws, I was initially confused. However, as I watched the disaster unfold, my heart broke for those who were suffering due to the mismanagement. I hope that this will teach them about the importance of common sense."

He stated that "good times make men weak and weak men cause hardships."

"Strong men and women, sound policy. Weak policy creates hard times. We need to have strong men so we can create good times again. That's the way it is. We're now in hard times. Everybody's going to be in a better position," said Cain.

Cain stated that he believes liberal individuals in Hollywood typically vote for policies that do not impact them, but when it affects them personally, such as not being able to obtain a permit to rebuild or their home burning down and being looted, they suddenly appreciate and support law enforcement and first responders. He added that they desire common-sense policies.

"When it affects you, your votes change," he said. "I believe this will turn a blue state more red. I hope California becomes purple. I understand the pain of those who have lost everything and the years of red tape, nightmares, and memories gone that they will face. This event will be catastrophic for them. I hope it will wake up people to vote for sensible policies and prepare for the future."

"So once it affects you, your votes change. And I think this is going to turn a very, very blue state, much more red. I'm hoping California becomes purple." — Dean Cain

Cain, who resides in the desert, stated that he has enough food in his car to sustain them for several days and that he and his son possess satellite radios in addition to their cellphones to communicate with one another.

He stated that he wasn't a survivalist or a prepper because it's common sense.

Seeing a tragedy of this scale, one can appreciate the greatness of the American people and their unity.

"We are the most giving nation in history, and we will continue to be, even as we remain fractured. However, in times of natural disasters, war, and other crises, Americans come together. It's inspiring to see this unity, even though the road ahead will be long and difficult."

The wildfire devastation may be replaced by more recent news in the national news cycle, but the lives of those affected are forever changed.

"The destruction of Palisades High School is beyond my comprehension. It's astonishing to me. I played football at Palisades High School. Dozens of memories are gone. It's just gone. Like so much of my childhood is gone. I moved away due to the terrible policies. It's heartbreaking to see it happen. I don't want to brag, but I predicted this."

After the Palisades fire, Dean Cain says, "So much of my childhood is gone."

Cain stated that his mother, who is present with him in Nevada, is unable to stop crying while observing the destruction.

"The house they built from scratch has been destroyed," he said, adding, "my mom has been crying for two days."

Cain stated that leaving Malibu for Henderson was "one of the wisest decisions I've ever made."

"He exclaimed, "I feel liberated!" as he shared, "So many people will say, 'You got out just in time.' And I did. Because I was fortunate to have the resources and a son, Christopher, who said, 'Dad, let's go.' Life is so much better here with beautiful neighborhoods, more value for your dollar, lower taxes, and fewer regulations than in California. Plus, we're in the middle of the desert in Nevada, with better water rights and cheaper water than in California. It was the right move for me.""
