Which policies has he enacted in CA which mirror or support trickle down? All I ever hear is how he’s not progressive enough, but when I look at his record I see a LOT of progressive action. Much like how he’s “anti trans” for not signing 1 bill, he signed numerous others that year protecting queer people, and now he’s being attacked for being too pro-trans.
It’s pretty funny watching the left split and splinter this far out, because of all the purity testing. No one will ever be progressive enough, pure enough. And if somehow they were perfect enough to appease the left wing, there’d be 0 chance of getting red votes.
The next Dem who gets elected will do so using some centrist attitudes including towards social issues which we’re losing on badly. Might be time to get wise to that.
It’s like the old saying - do you want to be right, or do you want to be happy? Should we wait for the perfect candidate, or should we, IDK, maybe try to win the next election?
Newsom isn’t exactly a paragon of progressive virtues and certainly would continue to benefit from trickle-down policies.
It’s not hard to imagine that he actually likes Reagan’s policies here, never mind that his corporate donors gave him his marching orders.
