Look. I don’t like Gavin, and really don’t want him to be on the ballot. But if comes down to him or Vance, or god forbid Trump running again I’m voting for Gavin.
The fact that liberals and centrists look at Gavin Newsom and think he isn’t their enemy is one of the most depressing indicators of how screwed the US is.
Along with the fact all it takes is saying things not actions. Bonus when literally just from their PR person
To be fair, I kind of get it.
After seeing so many other prominent Dems (inexplicably) ‘taking the high road’, which means doing basically nothing, even seeing one mock the regime in sassy social media posts is refreshing and attention-grabbing.
For all of his many, many, many faults, he’s one of the few who has dared to ‘take the gloves off’ when fighting the fascists … even if it’s actually only in the form of online shitposts. People are desperately thirsty for someone to rally behind and take these fascist fuckers down.
That is such a low bar and I give him zero credit.
I know, I know. But it’s a low, low bar that most other Dems can’t even surmount.
Except he hasn’t done anything more than let pr people tweet. When pressed in person or with actions there’s nothing, which again makes is so sad all it takes for so many is shit posts
I hope he loses the primary then
That’s the best part. There’s still a ton of people think Democrats will be the saviors of democracy.
They could be if we make them
All we have to do is elect the #TheAssistance Democrats.
I hope he
loses the primarygets the fuck out of politics then
