I mean, I'm not clear how much I had to do with the results of any of the presidential elections I've voted in, but I can promise you that my potentially meaningless vote will not go to Gavin. I wish he weren't even my governor. 😭

Californians will do our best to try to stop it. We screwed Garcetti's political ambitions and we can screw Newsom too.

I mean it’s literally impossible, but they could give us a third Trump term by having him be the democratic nominee

I will vote for him!!!! He’s a lot better choice than Kamala for me. She was never my first choice. Should have had a primary!

Amen

Newsom's smiling tolerant neoliberal face of American fascism frightens me much more long term than dweebs like Steven Miller and Trump. I see Dems winning in 28 and using the same levers of power Trump is exploiting to bring back high stock market American imperialism that lasts longer than 2 years

If Gavin Newsom frightens you more than Stephen Miller, Trump, Emil Bove, the current SCOTUS, and the other criminals in the administration and courts, I don't know what to say. 🤦

Acting like that's the thing to worry about now is ignoring everything happening

I'm trying. He's doing the moves to get in, but it is also 3 years until the election.

Ooooh yeah, I actually forgot it’s a long way away

No ones vote will matter anyway. They are already rigging the next several election cycles. Maybe in about 20 years, when half the world's population is dead there will be a few capable people left to pick up the pieces.

I'm not trying to discourage people from voting. Vote like your life depends on it and find as many people who have never voted and get them to vote as you can, because your life probably does depend on the rethuglicans losing.

Lighten up. He's peeling away the hard-coated shell the Republicans have put on that is leading us to dictatorship. Gavin may run he may not. There will be a whole bunch of people running. And I hope Pete buttigieg is one of them. He's a Rhodes scholar. But settle down Gavin is doing us a service

And I support Gavin newsome trolling Trump. He needs to do more of it. He's good at it. I love it. They'll probably be 15 20 people running under Democrat/Independent. Let this play out it will be okay. Trumpers owned the libs that's how we got Trump. It's time to own the Republicans 🥰Gavin

Why?

You mean *White* America. And they will.

Damn

Move to Texas

Here is Gavin (photo op) showing how he is a hard worker as he demonstrates how to solve the homeless crisis.......just stroll in unannounced and throw away their tents and everything they own. No big deal to him, he will be sleeping fine tonight in this $9 million Marin home he just purchased.

Disgusting

Any other Dem, please copy Gavin's comms strategy so he is not the only one aggressively attacking trump and people will support you instead of him!

If it ends up being Newsom vs Trump (could happen at the rate things are going), y’all *better* vote for him. No issue with there being a competitive primary and him having to work to make his case for the nomination though!

I think you need to read this. 🟣 CA Gov Gavin Newsom "Completely Aligns" With Charlie Kirk On Trans Issues In Podcast share.google/WdPQceHxBDJv...

You should use this energy to pressure centrist Dems to give a full throated endorsement for Mamdani. Blue no matter who, right?

I have!

Nope.

No, fuck you and fuck Gruesome Gavin Newsom

“𝘐𝘧 it ends up being... ⁣ ⁣ No issue with there being a competitive primary…⁣”

No. If Newsom becomes the nominee, it will be very clear that there is no place for trans people in the Democratic Party. I will not support someone who not only agrees with fascists about trans people, but does so gleefully and treats them like friends.

It can't be against Trump because he's on his second term In the event its Newsom V Trump we already lost the country entirely

I’m gonna love getting blamed for whatever comes after bc I said “I’m not voting for a jerk who hates homeless people” instead of the millions of people who voted for trump

I refuse to accept That Newsom is the de facto Candidate. My god, it’s 2 and a half years away!

Given what most of the other Dems have done to stand up against Trump ... JFC, I feel like I'm left with, "Newsom is a sociopath but at least he's our sociopath?"

fuck that transphobe

when the coms team is better than the candidate.... and fuck that sociopath

Bullshit. He runs the fourth largest economy in the world. And purists help elect Nazis.

It's grim to see people attacking his critics as though he's already the candidate.

Not that that would be better if he WAS, but it would at least make a little sense.

Shitlibbery is all "vote blue no matter who gets sacrificed" until someone is up for election who respects the universality of human rights. Then it's all "support this 'indie' candidate who is demonstrably a monster!".

see how Newson is being treated by media and the shit libs on this site vs Mamdani

Pritzker/Crockett 2028! With Mamdami for HUD and Warren for treasury. We need solutions not just someone who can sling mud.

Leftists just want to be entertained. They don’t care about actual governance.

He may not be your guy but you need to start thinking about who is your person.

It’s funny, every Californian is like “no, just absolutely not” yet we’re supposed to think he’d be a good leader

Dont do this..You are going down the Kamala isnt black road...or She's phony...Trump is about to bring back Jim Crow 2.0. Newsome is the Dark Knight we need.

There's very legit concerns about Gavin Newsom. If anything, this is THEE time to do this before primaries begin. Throwing trans people, unhoused people, & others under the best is 💯 unacceptable. Please read @erininthemorning.com article. I beg you. share.google/WdPQceHxBDJv...

*under the bus 🚌 Jeez I need coffee bad ☕

No he isn’t. Newsom is the same exact person as trump. He’s just more handsome

Gavin newsome believes that the problem with homeless people is that the people exist not that they're homeless

It’s way too early. Let’s fight on & get through the midterms.

It's never too early to take out the trash.

Pls don't start this already

As a Canadian I need to point with all my might at Mark Carney and scream at Americans that it's not enough to just defeat the worst candidates, you need someone who'll take things in the right direction and not, say, trample over unions.

Don't worry, they won't have a chance to.

He's the great white hope

Yea you’re right. Let’s keep Trump.

This is what happens when our infighting about our personal political agendas prevents us from stopping a conman and his cronies from infiltrating our political system. While we’re downing lattes, discussing nuance, a fucking conman walks right past us. 🤦🏽‍♀️

Yes, and Newsom is that conman

💯💯💯 Newsom's actions/words on Trans & Homeless people proves this. Yet many Dems are OK with this.

Yeah, Newsome and Trump sure are the ONLY candidates THREE GODDAMN YEARS out from the election. JFC.

I hope someone rises above the mediocrity and can take on Trump.

Well, it's not Newsom.

Whoops, it looks like you’re responding to a statement that doesn’t exist anywhere outside your decaying grey matter. Would you like to try again and make a response that has any connection to what others HAVE said/reality itself?

Oh yeah you’re right, that’s the choice Let’s root for a lying creep, who’s betrayed any smooth talking high minded talking with self dealing, corruption and RECENTLY chatting up with leaders of the fascist takeover & publicly agreed with their points repeatedly. I’ll never ever vote for him

Don't worry, we won't (he'll lose and someone even worse will win)

So adorable that you think there’s someone worse

That's American exceptionalism for ya!

He wishes he was a threat

I'm hoping it's Pritzker, if we get to elect or have fair elections at all anymore.

the people here trying to act like he's already the dem candidate are not the people who will decide who it is in the primary, no worries. he is not the type to fool Black women

I just want to watch him mock Trump into an aneurysm. He can burn in hell afterwards.

It’ll never happen. Also, no ‘e’. It’s just Newsom. Signed, A Californian.

Reporting Live from California: he's the worst

Ugh he just looks like the worst too

He's California Cuomo.

amen. I'd like a Democratic candidate to the left of Ronald Reagan for once.

We won’t.

Ok I have faith *turns on the news sees trump I HAVE FAITH

For now he's doing the things to get Democracy back from the fascists, but this thing does not mean he becomes President, we need someone who won't ratfuck groups like the unhoused or Trans communities as he has.

The shitlibs are increasingly dedicated to making it the democrat nominee. And if they do that it definitely won't become president because it will lose the election.

It's be nice if Dems could field a charismatic candidate with national name recognition who didn't bring slimy used car salesman energy. I mean, there is Pritzker but he's also a billionaire he just hasn't openly played with throwing certain groups under the bus and courted Nazis.

I'm working on it as hard as I can, but it seems like the Democrats have already chosen and are going to ram him through the Primaries.
