Newsom also recently had anti-LGBTQ+ activist Charlie Kirk and commentator Michael Savage on his show.

    Newsom thinks being more dynamic means pivoting to the center (wherever it happens to be), way before candidates do that. He’s toast. Or at least I hope he is. I said that for our convicted felon president too though, so ¯_(ツ)_/¯.

      Kinda weird he made a Segway in his career like this, he want that useful before he became a governor, I’m guessing he’s tryng to grift from the right.

      He’s targeting the audience of that one edgy podcast guy who’s name I can’t remember. They’ll vote him because he’s pissing off liberals.

    all three men suck. Andy Bashear sucks the least. Steve Bannon sucks the most. Gavin Newsome has the most people convinced he’d be the best presidential candidate somehow

      What’s wrong with Beshear? Dude has done absolute wonders here despite the innate opposition. He did everything he could during COVID to limit the spread, and he’s vetoed anti-trans bills.

          KY native. I’m honestly confused at what you want from him. His “start” is pretty bland for a politician, and he’s absolutely exceeded expectations for a politician from here. I genuinely don’t get the animosity.

              Were you perhaps thinking of his dad, Steve Beshear?

                no, but him being a nepo baby is one of my unreasonable you should just ignore me complaints. look. no one who wants to go into politics will ever read to me in my interactions with them as a good person. again. andy bashear might be the best you will literally ever do with someone who can get elected, but i’ll still be side eying him.

      I mean, I’m not voting for him. I didn’t vote for neoconservatives in 2008 and I don’t see any reason to vote for them in 2028 either.

    I’m never gonna vote for Gavin Newsom again (He’s my Calif Gov). Looks like he’s one of those democrats whose ambition is bigger than their integrity, so he wants to join the whole “let’s be fascist” thing.
