The owner of a Los Angeles-based construction and electrical company had a reality check after realizing that voting for Democrats had destroyed his business.
Ryan Baggaley, the owner of Delta Construction and Electric Co., said a group of at least ten thieves broke into his business on Wednesday morning and blasted L.A. Mayor Karen Bass, California Governor Gavin Newsom, and President Joe Biden for failing to protect his business.
“This whole strip has been broken into, our neighbors have been broken into four times, these guys just got broken into two months ago,” Baggaley said.
“What are we supposed to do? We’re a small construction company.”
The L.A. business owner blasted the Democrats he voted for, as his once safe neighborhood is now plagued with robberies.
“I voted for Karen Bass. I voted for Biden. I voted for Gavin Newsom,” he said.
“I’m sick of it,” Baggaley said.
“At some point you have to give me a reason to vote for you again.”
“We just do our jobs, make a living, help our employees make a good living, and move on, but it’s really freaking difficult to survive,” Baggaley added.

Surveillance footage captured between 10 and 15 thieves breaking through the gates in a car before entering the Delta Construction and Electric Co. building and taking goods.
Baggaley told Fox 11 that the thieves used the Kia Soul to break through his company’s gate, which was stolen from an LAPD impound yard.
Baggaley said that among items stolen by the thieves were music equipment, and estimated they tole and damaged thousands of dollars worth of equipment.
The business owner said his Ring system notified him of the break-in, and he rushed to his business and called the police.
However, he said officers didn’t respond to the burglary for two hours.
“They’re saying, ‘We don’t have anyone in the area,'” he told KTLA 5.
“We’re like, ‘Now it’s been 15 minutes, then it’s 20 minutes, and they’re still not here.’ It just kept going, and they didn’t respond for two hours.”
Earlier this year, Los Angeles launched a task force to tackle retail theft and robberies.
“These are not victimless crimes,” said Bass, adding that the task force will “aggressively investigate” these incidents and hold such perpetrators “fully accountable.”
