(685 posts)The right have done a very effective job of convincing California is this hellscape and that millions of people are leaving every year and that Newsom is the reason for all of this.
Of course that's stupid, if so many people were fleeing the state then why are we building so many homes and a apartments? Developers don't spend money if they can't sell the product. Why is the economy #4 in the world if this is all true?
I think this is part of what Newsom is now turning to that he's beat up on Trump for a while he's going to start working on changing the spin. He wants people that believe this stupidity to now question why their state sucks and yet the numbers in CA are so much better. It's going to take a long time to turn that around and if he is serious about 2028 starting now makes a lot of sense now that he's got people's attention.
Like I said people underestimate him at their own peril.
