Newsom isn’t even liked in his home state. Republicans wont ever vote for a Democrat, and he’s had a long history of “Rules for thee, not for me.” Plus his mishandling of homeless issues, his platforming of right wing grifters on his podcast, and just general insufferable way of handling most issues is a turn off for anyone with compassion.
Maybe because Democrats get elected after Republicans mess up the economy, they want to enable their horrid polices as an attempt at an easy win.
Now that makes sense honestly. They can’t win with boring candidates in stable-ish times. John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris all flopped because they didn’t offer much in times of stability.
So why not enable more genocide, allow the few who have homes to lose them, ramp up racism and xenophobia, it makes “I will maybe roll some of these back” look good like it did in 2020.
He can probably win pretty easily. I’ll take it.
This isn’t the fucking time to let perfect be the enemy of good enough.
Newsome would absolutely lose.
He’s insufferable.

Newsom is good enough like Biden was good enough in 2020. Everyone is learning the wrong lessons.
He won in 2020.
Due to COVID and a mass push for mail-in voting. If COVID wasn’t a thing, Biden probably would have lost.
Which explains why Democratic leadership approved the GOP budget in the past: enabling Republicans to do their worse is their election strategy.

Exactly. Newsom can probably win in 2028, and the Republican party will be stronger for it.
