Why do yall keel saying Newsome is the only Democrat doing anything when this is patently not true?

Illinois has a big boy billionaire who actually believes the stuff he says.

Let Newsome be the crazy attack dog, but he’s another egomaniac so I wouldn’t want him to run for president. We need a lot of people to do all the shit work, but our ultimate candidate should be the anti-Trump - serious and not interested in memes.

Gavin Newsom is one of those doing something that doesn't seem like he is being held back FROM doing it. A handful of Democrats have been loud about what is happening, but too many aren't getting half the backing Newsom is getting.

As a governor, he has a bigger machine to support him. But there is plenty of space for other voices, and nobody is filling it. All I’ve seen this past week is foppish bitching about Newsome filling a void that is open to anyone.

To not fight for the rights of one is to deny the rights of all. If you'd trample the rights of innocents to defeat your enemy, you are no ally to humanity.

He’s the first to take the plunge into “constitutional hardball” in such a loud way - explicitly using executive power for partisan purposes. Pritzker is good too but needs to kick it up here. Hochul? Not holding my breath

Some people see in white and white. There are so many others fighting daily with everything they have, but older Dems seem to lack the rods in their eyes to see black and brown.

I disagree for a number of reasons, but putting that aside it doesn't have to be Newsom.

It doesn’t have to be, but if it is, I’m voting for him and owning it.

I won't be voting for him, which is why I plan to fight as hard as I can to keep him from being the nominee.
