None, which is why I’ll support a primary candidate who supports them. You’ve chosen the position that you’re willing to bargain away those groups if trans rights aren’t met by the eventual nominee. So, don’t act like you’re better than me. You’re mad at me for the same thing you’re willing to do.
Bullshit! to get a "D" in the white house we know you'll trade trans people so who's next?
You’re right. Instead of electing a shitty “D”, let’s not vote and keep Republicans in power who are already trading away all people except rich, white, MAGA loyalists.
how is your cognitive dissonance so powerful? You made a list of vulnerable people, and Newsom has directly negatively impacted all of them in CA. You think the answer to the homeless is to vote for a guy who just did an encampment bulldoze photo op? he threw away his constituents photo albums ffs
if the dems run him as the candidate, the party is irredeemable and not deserving of anyone's vote. AND THEY WILL LOSE In this way, supporting Gavin Newsom is an endorsement of Trump for a third term
For the millionth time, I’m not supporting or endorsing Newsom. If he’s the only remaining candidate after the primary, there isn’t much left to endorse. The choice is made. Yeah, dems will probably lose in that scenario. But I’m willing to fight by voting against republican cruelty. You’re not.
you posted a list of his accomplishments Johnny
So, you call them accomplishments? That sounds like a good thing. The guy is fucking evil. He could do so much more to help marginalized people with his power. I agree. But if you think he’d do more harm than Republicans are actively doing, you’re not paying attention.
I never said he’s a good candidate. I’ve said he’s better than ANY Republican option. Also, he’s helped with: - Medi-Cal expansion - Making Cali and LGBTQ+ sanctuary state - Prop 1, Homekey, and CARE courts - Rideshare Driver Unionization - Death penalty moratorium You only select the bad.
Would you prefer republicans who don’t support helping any of those marginalized communities? Or would you accept incremental progress while continuing to fight? Or is your ultimatum “all or nothing right now”?
my "ultimatum" is that I will not, ever, under any circumstances, vote for Gavin Newsom. the fact that you support him shows exactly what kind of person you are. It's wild to me that you're torching all your credibility for a freak who will never be president while pretending to be a progressive
Would you support Pritzker if he ran for the Democratic Nomination?
A number of people have told me in these threads that Pritzker is someone I should support (which I already do). But he’s also worth $3.5-3.9 billion. Based on your pinned post, is it safe to say you won’t support him because he’s a billionaire even though he supports trans people’s rights?
Hey bud what rights of yours are you willing to sacrifice?
Or are you willing to look past how his family got rich, and he continues to benefit, by exploiting workers and not paying a living wage? Feel like that’s gotta be a hard no for a Union man. So, you wouldn’t vote for him if he was the dem nominee even though he supports trans people’s rights?
Which of YOUR rights are you willing to sacrifice, you sociopath?
You still can’t comprehend my position. I’d support Pritzker, AOC, Buttigieg, Beshear, and Walz all over Newsom. I’ve only said if Newsom somehow won the nomination, I wouldn’t abandon my principles and actively help keep Republicans in power by not voting.
That’ll show ‘em!
show who? the homeless you don't care about, or the transpeople you don't care about, or the immigrants you don't care about? What does endorsing this freak "show 'em"
