I am a far left California and I really have to warn you against calling for this ghoul's antics, gavin is a right wing husk that plays at being a progressive. He has personally blocked a ton of regulation and housing measures on behalf of his donors. Not a friend!

The challenge: figure out what we need right now, not whether someone's eternal scorecard makes them in essence completely this (a hero?) or that (a villain?). In politics things are very dynamic & there are big contradictions. FDR enacted SocSec but he also incarcerated Japanese Americans.

Zohran Mamdani shows how easy it is to sell leftist policy to the public, AND how shatteringly popular it is. Take notes from this. He is what we need more of right now: aggressive, progressive, and strictly anti-billionaire.

I'm going to be blunt with you, Gavin is not what we need right now. The massive wealth inequality is the major problem we face right now, and without somebody properly addressing it, we are just kicking the can. Gavin will ONLY kick the can, and then it's back for round three of fascist takeover.

Yes, wealth inequality, agree. AND, we also need someone to deal with the redistricting issue, and Newsom's doing it, so that's good, right. He's trolling the hell out of trump and that's good, also raising the contradiction to msm for questioning him but not trump's incoherent blurps.

I don’t think anyone cares what political affiliations or assumptions are… if a Republican was doing what Gavin Newsom is doing to rid the Earth of the pedophile President he should get our support🫵

Gavin is making insult comedy on twitter and further shutting out progressives under the guise of "fighting back" against Texas blatantly breaking the law. He should he pursuing a prison sentence for texas legislators, not doing the same crime.

We get it - You don’t see the humor. Maybe just let the rest of us enjoy it as it lightens the load for very scary times for all of us. You don’t like Newsom then just scroll past.

Dude I like the humor, I just want to salt any chance of a gavin presidency. He's doing the messaging I want to see he just doesn't do the political work for us.

Dude, if he takes down Trump a few notches, that's fine. Doesn't mean we need to make him president.

Fair enough, but I know him well enough to know he'll try to snowball this into exactly that. I want to be ahead of that however I can.

Please read about weimar germany and how liberals set the stage for the nazi takeover of the nation. Figures like Gavin are exactly the kind of do-nothings that further our decline.

The third reich happened because liberals refused to make concessions to the working class, leaving a vacuum of directionless resentment and angst that let the nazis galvanize them into supporting them. Stop voting for decline if you want to fight fascisn.
