Oh yeah, I believe you’re totally right about that. The Establishment Dems’ centrism seems more mercenary than ideological. They’ve forgotten that the purpose of elections is voting, not fundraising. When we offer a candidate who appeals to lower income voters, we win. To Wall St.? We lose.

And this is why we're campaigning against Newsom NOW. To make it clear years out that he's not an acceptable candidate. Not that it matters, because everyone seems to be responding as though we're already in the general for 2028.

I don’t think he’s had his coronation just yet. His new-found spine is improving his image, but much of that is the novelty of his team’s strategy. We want to see the asshole punch the bully, but that doesn’t mean we LIKE the asshole now.
