Um...isn't the accusation usually about how Dems DON"T attack Republicans and just roll over for them? That they don't ridicule him and immediately apologize if they actually do (shade of Walz pointing out how "weird" Trump's entourage is before consultants told him that was a "no-no")?
The problem with Democrats is what they do once in power. Republicans are shameless in their pursuits, even when extremely stupid, and it gets them results. Democrats hang on to propriety, and accomplish ...? We're always on the cusp of something, but weirdly never taking extreme measures.
To clarify, talking shit on social media is not an extreme measure. It's practically a non-action.
😒 But...Newsom *has* Done Something and utilized his power as governor. Like right now. Were you so busy complaining about Dems actually following advice about "messaging" in ways the common person can react to that you missed it?
Decent human beings don't like Newsom. Hit the bricks.
This is a moot point anyway, since the actual reason is simply that the person acting the way people keep bemoaning they want Dems to act (fighting fire with fire, with the same energy as they receive) is someone you don't like, so now you hate it and it all has to be reduced to strawman caricature
It's basically just another version of this in a nutshell.... bsky.app/profile/mpow...
In addition,The "two month" time frame would only be a "problem" if we put our eggs in one basket. After all all those other Dems fighting back in the "proper" way are ready to take the baton and run with it once Newsom's moment to shine is over, right?
