You do realize that there’s no wall around blue sanctuary cities, right? And that the effects of stupid liberal policies never stay in one spot, right?

Not to nitpick, but the effects of liberal policies often do stay in one spot...

Let's look at some Data shall we?

Folks in Blue States are better educated...
"Blue states outpace red states by 5.3 percentage points in 4-year college degree attainment."
"All of the top 15 most college-educated states are blue, while only 3 of the bottom 15 are blue."
Example:
"The District of Columbia (blue) has the highest percentage of residents with a 4-year degree at 50.5%.
West Virginia (red) has the lowest percentage of residents with a 4-year degree at 17.9%."

And Folks in Blue States live longer...
"A growing mortality gap between Republican and Democratic areas may largely stem from policy choices."
"People in Republican Counties Have Higher Death Rates Than Those in Democratic Counties."
"It joins an already existing, pretty robust literature showing that politics do have life-and-death consequences."
"The U.S. mortality rate has decreased since 2001. But the improvement for those living in Republican counties was half that of those in Democratic counties 11 percent lower versus 22 percent lower."

And Red States Have Higher Gun Death Rates Than Blue States...
"The Data found that between 2000 and 2020, Trump-voting states had 12% higher murder rates than did Biden-voting cities."
"New York saw significant drops in homicides between 2021 and 2022, while Florida saw significant increases."
"Mississippi had a firearm mortality rate of 33.9, making it the state with the highest rate. The state also used its electoral votes to vote for then President Trump in the 2020 election."
"Louisiana had a firearm mortality rate of 29.1 and voted for Trump."
