Gavin Newsom is as corrupt as hell. His political roots are knee-deep in the cesspool of the Willie Brown political machine in San Francisco. That political machine in San Francisco city government is as corrupt as Chicago or New York, it's just not as visible because it is not run by the Mob.
well MAGA does not have a problem with criminals recriming... Or they be pissed at their Diaper Daddy for all the jan 6'ers who did pedo things after their blanked pardons.... Oh no I see where I went wrong there. My bad.
Gavin is not a great candidate. Supports ice Doesn’t think Gaza is genocide In the pockets of rich investors Gives tax breaks to those rich investors Born into wealth
Please vote for someone who actually had experience in their life as the working middle class or lower.
I mean I like Gavin standing up to trump and the trolling is fun. He clearly does alright managing the 4th largest economy in the world. But maybe let’s keep him in that role.
Idk if declared is the right word. I believe he walked back statements he made but probably before those statements he supported israel just fine and dandy anyways
They're always getting baited with the "liberals help criminals" bs.
Even if that were true, they've been celebrating Trump, who's already a criminal and dropped future investigations against himself as president and pardoned all of the January 6 insurrectionists, including individuals that attacked police.
Trump has pardoned drug traffickers, scammers, and frauds, he is the pardon president, more pardons than any other president. The man himself has felonies.
Imagine paying actors to make Newsom look bad when he has blatantly folded to whatever political trend he thinks will secure him future positions of authority. Doing us a fucking favor making sure he doesn't make it past the 2028 primaries, we can do better than Newsom.
Exactly.. anyone who is actually left of center and pays attention will have a whole shitlist of things bad about Newsom that they could rattle off.. more ammo than the right even has..
If he is the candidate I will vote for him... I will be FURIOUS but I will be voting. But seriously we need a PROGRESSIVE candidate. New York is the example we need to follow right now.
Primaries are where we need to push for progressive candidates. But once the primaries are settled, vote blue no matter who. Whoever the DNC puts in that spot will be more progressive than the GOP's pick.
New York is spending their funds on the people and improving their lives and city. Honestly can’t remember the last time I’ve seen that!! Democratic socialism is looking way better than capitalism!!
I like the idea of throwing Obama in the ring if Trump actually tries a third term. Without an ammendment, no amount of legal gymnastics can include Trump while excluding Obama
Right. The man has some good political capital right now thanks to Trump and Vance trying to run his name through the mud after the whole "disobey illegal orders" thing
Yeah, now is exactly when we need to be saying that. Democrats still have two years to nominate a suitable candidate. Newsom isn’t one, so you have plenty of time to find someone else.
You want to stop getting crushed by lackluster defeats? Then get behind an actual progressive for a change. Unlike your useless centrist heroes like Newsom, progressives can actually win if they’re given support from the party, and sometimes even if they aren’t. Don’t blame leftists because libs can’t find any good candidates.

Gavin Newsom is the KKK in a blue robe

That's not prison sentences and state governors work. Been better if he said he was pardoned, but that's a matter of public record.

Imagine being a republican and thinking that being 'tough on crime' is anything close to what you can claim to be.

The thing about dog whistles is that the people saying the phrase and the people to whom it is directed know what it actually means.

There is still so much time, we don't have to settle for another establishment democrat running the same neoliberal centrist garbage.

Didn't he declare himself a Zionist?

Calling Trump a criminal is an understatement. The man is CRIME ITSELF.

soThatWasThat
Think that was a lot of pardons? Wait until his term comes up. Pardons for all, and for himself.
Margrave9000
He'll soon have to pardon his sons.

How could you forget to mention the J6 terrorists?

I didnt forget, he pardoned his co-conspiritors.

seriously fuck that guy, the worst of the worst of centrist do-nothing-but-get-rich-off-power democrats. Fuck him off into the goddamn sun.

The only surprise is that the Republicans didn't hire a Black actor and have him wear a 70s pimp costume.

He lost me when he caved on taxing the rich and his unwavering support for Israel.

Currently the betting favourite to be your next president in 2028. Has gone past JD Vance recently.

they cant bring up to us what makes Newsom look bad, because they agree with the those things. its sorta a funny/weird catch 22.

While I know you weren't drawing lines in the sand, people are already saying who they refuse to vote for.
