Why is Newsom’s team better at pretending to be Trump than Trump’s own team?

Camille Zapata is why. She's a true genius with a mirror.

How many public figures' media account directors do we know by name? It's a measure of her brilliance that we know who she is.

I think its also a mark of Newsom’s strength as a leader (god i dont even really like him). He’s happy to step back and let somebody on his team speak when theyre the right one for the job. Its a big difference between him and the cheeto, and he leans into it.

I've always understood that the test of leadership is "How good are the people who report to you directly?" Napoleon was superb; his field commanders were even better. As you imply, there's a instinct to allowing other people make you look good. Trump doesn't have that. He's just a sales guy.

We need to give the Newsom team kudos. They've got smarter people assigned to do what they do best.

No one can do it alone. And when we vote for a President, we are voting for him/her and all his/her appointees (including judges). If the sole criterion is "blind loyalty to the boss," the result will be bad. By comparison, Lincoln had one of the strongest teams, ever. They all hated each other.

She has nothing to do with this nor with the press office account as a whole. It's Newsom's Communications Director and his team.

Exactly what I was going to say. 👏😆 Pravda had some bleats the other night that were obviously not written by Trump, being somewhat coherent and devoid of his eccentric grammatical quirks, etc.

Because fascist tend to suck at everything... they attract the worst and weakest minds. That's our only silver lining here, is they always tend to trip over their own feet.

Because Trump's team has to fill their ranks withpeople who are willing to be complicit in his evil, classless, anti-American, Nazi clown show, which massively restricts their hiring pool.
