Newsom and every other rational American are fed up with trump. He's robbing us blind. He is most likely a pedophile of the worst kind. He's declared war on American cities and that doesn't look like it's stopping any time soon with all the money being poured into it.

Everyone does talk behind his back. The emperor wears no clothes.... until someone says it out loud.

I wish and hope more leaders would speak up. We hear often that dems can't do anything because we're the minority blah blah blah... but leaders have voices. The press are useless. The words don't have to be perfect but somebody has to start saying out loud what we're all thinking..
