I believe the term is Blue MAGA.
And the worst part is the democratic party will champion this fucker because it's fully bought and paid for.

I believe the term is Blue MAGA.

Whaaaaaaat? A politician behaving like a political animal? The shock! The scandal!
This guy was once married to Kimberly Gilfoyle, who was Don Jr's concubine for a few years, until fairly recently, so that tells me all I have to know about him, or her. He's a Manchurian MAGA.
Yea he’s a fascist. That’s why he platforms Nazi’s and Zionists on his podcast and magically lets them persuade him that they are right. It’s also why he vetoes everything that helps the working class. It’s also why he let PG&E get away with murdering 800 Californians and he allows them to raise our rates 6 times a year while they continue to make record shareholder profits. It’s also why why he is fighting the one time 5% billionaire tax proposed by the California legislature as hard as he can. We need an FDR Newsom is an Israeli asset and a closeted republican who’s Gen z handlers make funny tweets.
I saw him speak at Davos a while ago and I thought he was a big phony guy with very little acting skills but who is constantly acting. Another cult of personality instead of any real depth of thought.
Hopefully, we get AOC as the front runner. I am sick of the Democratic establishment.
Only the democratic establishment could lose to Trump TWICE!!!
Nah, MAGA won once in 2016, with Russian interference, but they only prevailed in 2024 because they openly cheated, with the help of Musk and Putin, and the MAGA comedy act of Schmuck & Jeffries covered for them.
Democrats lost in 2016 and 2024. They would have lost in 2020 if it weren't for covid.
Either AOC or John Stewart needs to step the fuck up and save our nation.
As compared to what? Is he worse than Trump? I sincerely fucking doubt it.
That's a ridiculously low bar, but it's also an important distinction.
Do I want Gavin Newsom to be the Democrat nominee for 2028? Hell no! He's revealed himself to be a shallow political opportunist and an ideological chameleon. And I think that party can do better.
But regardless, would he be an improvement over Trump? Hell yes!
Another question is: is he - a supposedly populist liberal from California - even electable on a national stage? I don't think so. But then, we live in very 'interesting' times. So who knows.
The third question is: will we have a fair enough election in 2028 (or an election at all)? That remains to be seen.
Democrats have been playing the "well they suck, but at least they're not Trump!" game for a decade and gotten Trump two out of three times. Maybe we should aim higher.
Newsom says he’s eager to pitch a big tent for the Democratic Party, declaring that he welcomes the likes of former US senator Joe Manchin as well as New York’s socialist mayor Zohran Mamdani in the fold. “I want it to be the Manchin to Mamdani party,” Newsom said in November.
Newsom can fuck right the hell off. Manchin represents everything that is wrong with the Democratic party and so, apparently, does Newsom.
You mean the serial adulterer who can't read and whose entire life has been sponsored by a Getty oil heir isn't a good candidate for president of the United States? Shocked.
Legitimate question, you are asked to vote for either Gavin Newsom or Donald Trump. Who do you vote for or do you abstain?
Watching how fast he threw the trans community under the bus told me everything I needed to know about him. He has the moral compass of a boiled piece of spaghetti... fuck this corpo dem.
