Is that true even if trump is reelected?

Even more so, yes. I will be mostly fine in California even if Trump is elected, in all likelihood. The worst things about Trump's presidency were not felt here but seen in other states.

Obviously Trump is a huge threat to federalism in general and democracy at the federal level, but they can only do so much to the states and cities.

Where would you rather live under a trump presidency? Los Angeles or Orlando? Seattle or Nashville? Philadelphia or Little Rock? Even Austin, a very blue city, is prevented from doing a lot of good by the state of Texas.
