In reply to the discussion: What the fuck is Gavin Newsom doing? [View all]Rainman4u2C
(58 posts)what he should be doing is running his state that's billions of dollars in debt and helping the Palisades that is still smoldering.
He is getting way out in front of 2028. He is bringing on the loudest mouthpieces of the right to draw attention to his podcast to get a listener base. He is trying to turn his show into a Rogan type show and I would even look for Rogan himself to go on it or vice versa. After he gets a listener base he will pivot center left and try to change the rights minds. He is NOT going to continue with the tRump is a Nazi, Hitler, rapist, conman, grifter, threat to democracy, hair on fire over every word/issue like we have done for the last 10 years because that really worked out so well, right? Right now we appear to be children throwing a fit for not getting our way and it's working. Why not stop with the name calling? Why not agree that cuts need to be made and offer up a partner to oversee it with musk. 36 trillion in debt is not going away. Cuts ARE going to be made! Clinton did it. You're either going to be part of the solution and ease the pain or sit in the corner throwing a fit and get all you're shit taken away.
There is NO WAY this country elects Mayor Pete (and probably not Newsom either). None! Zero! To think that is delusional. Following the thousands of comments on here after the election a common theme has been Harris lost due to racism and misogyny. If that's true do you really think this country will elect a gay married man with a child?
I can't believe I'm saying this because it's most attributed to raygun but it really is a "time for choosing." We can continue what we have been doing and continue losing or we can change and win.
