Gavin Newsom Sparks Backlash After Calling Democrats 'Toxic'
California's Democratic governor made his blistering remark during an interview with "Real Time" host Bill Maher.
This is why Democrats lose.
You're viewing a single thread.
I used to think he was a viable presidential candidate, and he might still be, for non-MAGA Republicans. He's no longer a viable Democratic candidate, though.
He's a perfect Democratic candidate, and that's the core problem with the party
One year ago I would have agreed. I would have loved to see him with Harris as the VP pick.
And now I just regret ever thinking that.
Harris is incredibly unpopular. She was the most or second most unpopular primary candidate in 2020. There are better picks.
Yes, a year or so ago she was looking fine. Time changes and new info makes me consider new things.
She's always been a genocidal prosecutor. Never looked "fine".
When this is what the "opposition" looks like, it's no surprise at all that we have fascism.
Well, she did look fine to most progressives when she directly supported medicare for all, to be fair. Israel was only committing an apartheid at the time, though. Also, she backtracked because she let other people control her campaign. Familiar...
I agree completely, but when she first came onto the scene I had a bit of hope.
Plus I have to censor myself so liberals don't think I'm somehow a Russian bot despite being an anarchist.
