This is why Democrats lose.

    It feels like democrats are trying to join republicans more and more cause they keep “winning.” The reality is that Republicans aren’t simply winning, but they are getting away with abandoning their constituents. Democrats who are in it for nothing but power are seeing this and starting to simply join the side in power. Newsom is no different and I won’t be surprised when he finally swaps colors.

      Yea i’ve been trying to figure out whats going on with Newsom, but im convinced at this point he’s just a power hungery politican running to the winning team. Values as deep as his career will allow.

    These motherfuckers will still be chirping about “cancel culture” while hanging from chains in Trump’s gulag.

    Newsom, a Democrat, has attempted a fresh approach to political divisiveness

    Seriously? Lurching to the right and courting republican voters is new, is it? Seems to me it’s the same shit democrats have been doing for quite some time. Newsom should just get it over with and change parties.

    I used to think he was a viable presidential candidate, and he might still be, for non-MAGA Republicans. He’s no longer a viable Democratic candidate, though.

    He’s a zionist anyway. We’re all full up of genocide apologists. He should leave.

    Is RFK Jr. sharing his alien mind control brain worms with all these other political candidates, or have they always been this garbage?

    That’s not even close to the comment made, but whatever. Newsom has his own take I suppose, but the people have a completely different one. The latter is more important.
