Newsom is a neo-feudalist asshat who tried to lick fascist boots earlier this very year. If a corprocrat like him is chosen, Dems are cooked because voters have consistently not turned out for them recently. If such a flakey and uninspiring candidate is chosen, MAGA has a better chance due to base suppression. It doesn’t matter that you think voters should act differently, because what is =/= what “ought” to be.
I’m tired of people expecting voters to shape themselves to the party instead of the other way around. Trump didn’t dominate other Republicans by telling people to “be better,” but by agreeing to satiate their strongest emotions. People aren’t in the mood to hear “it can’t be done yet, be patient,” when everyone’s economic situation has gotten worse with every passing year regardless of who is in charge. Democrats have nothing but false promises, which is why they lost against the American Hitler.
We should put TotallynitJessica in the campaign! Reminds me of this quote.
“Some party hack decreed that the people
had lost the government’s confidence
and could only regain it with redoubled effort.
If that is the case, would it not be be simpler,
If the government simply dissolved the people
And elected another?”
– Bertolt Brecht
Newsom’s aunt was married to Nancy Pelosi’s brother-in-law until they divorced, almost 50 years ago. This wouldn’t make him her nephew, even before the divorce, and there are more pertinent reasons to abhor both Pelosi and Newsom.

Also, his ex wife was a Fox News girl and Don Jr.’s ex gf so he’s in the same club as the rest of them.
He’s also Nancy Pelosi’s nephew.

It helps establish his connection to the political dynasties he intends to perpetuate.
Now that explains a lot
