I like what Newsom is doing. I like what Pritzker is doing. I like what Mamdani is doing. We need all hands on deck NOW. We can worry about the presidential race LATER. Once we secure its relevance.

I'm looking for new authentic voices. Newsome is not new or authentic. I live in Cali and he's awful. Pritzker is also not new or authentic. Mamdani is both but whoa, he's got some bad ideas. Affordable housing yes but Gov run supermarkets? No thank you.

Of new authentic voices? No one leaps off the page for me. We are told (by the media) that Newsome, Buttigieg, Mamdani, AOC and Josh Shapiro are the rising stars but that's dubious. In Cali, we have statewide term limits so we have movement but we also see a lot of failing up. Newsome is a prime...

...example of that. He's politically connected to the 4 big families in Cali. But what has he done? Pretty much nothing. No positive results. Everything he should be working to fix has gotten worse with the worst example being our homeless crisis. 20+ billion spent, no results and it's getting worse

I think Mamdani was elevated and the spotlight shown on him by the GOP because of some of his ideas. He's new and authentic but way to Socialist for my tastes. Buttigieg is newish but looks to be controlled by the DNC. He was winning in the primaries and suddenly just ended his campaign and...

...ended up the Transportation Secretary? WTF is that? That's called being controlled by the DNC and the mega donars. When AOC is prepped and has control of the settings she's in, she comes off as smart. When she does't have control and gets asked a tough question she's craters.

Josh Shapiro is the one person on the left I want to hear more from. I don't know enough about him to have an opinion yet but that's because he hasn't put himself out their nationally like Newsome has.

You might be right. Newsome is definitely running because he's termed out. But he's got some serious baggage. There's time for someone else to rise up. On both sides, actually. I've said this before. Trump isn't winning right now. His victory comes if he can get his successor elected in 2028...

Indeed, I’m not even worried about the midterms at this point. I’m worried about mid-week. We will get out the vote and everything but for now we need to defend democracy so there will be an actual vote. Right now we look like a replica of Russia.

What have those three actually done to stop any of what's happening? Has ICE left their states? Have tariffs been lifted? Has Trump stopped needlessly firing fed employees? Has FEMA been restored? Have they stopped the regulation rollback on fossil fuels? No. This isn't working. It's all for show.

Whats cool here is everyone squabbling about who they will or will not vote for but if we don't stop this somehow, nobody is voting again. That is entirely the agenda, its in the 800 pages and we are nearly there. To a lot of people that's the "lesser of 2 evils". Kill the 2 parties with fascism.

2/6 is a failing grade. We do need all hands on deck now. Mamdani is fantastic. We are in full-blown fascism and dictators typically aren’t voted out. Throwing people under the bus for political points isn’t the way forward.

Unfortunately, no one else is doing it yet. But his history of transphobia, his way of dealing with the homeless, his being in bed with and capitulating to private utilities is all disqualifying. We can accept his strategy without forming a personality cult.

No but anti semitism really is distasteful to me. I have been to the left of him since before he was born. I was quite happy to vote for every brown democrat that I was eligible to.

I would suggest taking a more measured approach, then, because it does feel like you're using too wide a paintbrush. Strategic alliances means you can support someone on a particular issue, but oppose them on another. That's just my opinion, though. Have a nice day.
