They still don't get it

I'm going to go ahead and lock this thread. The fights going on are way over my pay grade and it's 2 days old. Rule 5 my friends.

I almost understand the appeal of Trump now

Gavin is OWNING THE CONS and now they have Gavin Derangement Syndrome

I've ironically been telling my Right Wing friends that he's my new messiah and adopting Trump's speech patterns... and I actually had to explain the joke to them when they failed to notice I was acting unusual and instead just kept shitting on Gavin for being associated with California (no other reason)

It's fun seeing them get so mad over his being a garbage person and pretending the problem is with them for not "getting it man"

Does MAGA know Trump is shit and they've just been gaslighting everyone this whole time? Naw that can't be it

It's a shame Gavin Newsom is such a dipshit, because he's actually funny.

Good news. He isn't running his own Twitter.
- What do you mean?
How is this funny? Imitating Trump's ranting style does not make him look satirical, it makes him look like a total dipshit cause Trump's rants are fucking stupid and nonsensical and anyone who tries to imitate it even in a satirical manner looks unhinged.
- It's funny because it proves the Right recognizes Trump's misbehavior the second you remove the name Trump.
  It's their confession they've been had
- Parody is a pretty common form of comedy. Like sure it’s kind of depressing that he is imitating a president and acting like that.
  But like there was a whole episode of 30 Rock which is a sitcom from 15 years ago about them doing the same thing

Praise be!!!🧨🧨🧨✝️✝️✝️Gavin is good!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷

Gavin is only good if you're a transphobe.

Is this like a cracker barrel viral advertising blitz?

Man, it's hard to figure out what's more pathetic: their complete inability to process satire of the fact that they lost their shit this hard over a minimalist logo.

The logo shit is manufactured to keep the news off of important shit; before that it was the Sydney Sweeny ad, next week it'll be something else
- I have no idea what Sydney Sweeney ad you are talking about, and I'm going to take that as a win and feel better about my shitty week.
  Thanks friend
The minimalist logo, it's beyond stupid on a baseline. Don't get me wrong it looks kinda shit and I would've gone for the retro old West type face they originally had but still, throwing that level of piss fit over a damned logo is... Pathetic.
Yes

Yeah, I smile every time a Republican gets trolled by Newsom.

Honestly, a small chunk of the DNC should just be dedicated to keeping Republicans enthralled (with Newsom leading that subteam) while the rest of the Democrats do proper work organizing country wide for 2026.

Walz was much better at this. Newsom's "Look at me! I'm Trump!" routine is getting old quick.
- As long as there are people who don't get it, it will never get old.

Gavin Newsom is a PoS just like Donny. American democrats will do anything aside from fight against Trump's fascist regime.

All they can muster is some tweets.

I'd argue the opposite: satire and humor are the best way to get people on your side and motivated.
- What's the joke here then? Cause it isn't funny.
In all likelihood, he's going to be running for President against Trump in 2028, what are some reasons that I shouldn't I vote for Newsom?
- I suppose Newsom may win the presidency in 2028, and then caretake the country while doing the minimum for 4 to 8 years.
  Just in time for another gop to win after that, and drive the USA to the brink of ruin even more than Trump
  Back and forth. Same pattern the last two decades or more
- I would back a progressive candidate as hard as you can in the primary if possible.
  Newsom has a similar vibe problem as Harris where people outside of California don’t really know them or like them much.
  Personally I say fuck anyone from CA or NY (except AOC) we need a candidate from somewhere else more down to earth.
- He platforms Charlie Kirk on his podcast, and his record for how he treats policy in relation to prisons is pretty shit. In 2022 he vetoed a bill that would end indefinite solitary confinement because, ya know, that makes sense. He’s a self-important loud-mouth who’s doing funny things in regards to attack Trump but absolutely is not what the US needs right now. They to yank that needle to the left and all they’re being offered is centrists and conservatives who don’t like to stir the pot even while fascism is fully present in their country.
Just like Donny.
You’ve got to be kidding me. I grew up in California during Newsom and Harris’ rise to power.
As uninspiring as they are, this approach has highlighted Trump’s ridiculous communication style in a way that has not been challenged to date.
We can dive into actual policy if you want.
- Nobody has challenged Trump's communication style before? Really??
- He's a transphobe that would gladly put homeless people in a woodchipper.

Not american, I get this Gavin person is governor of California, but what's going on here?

He is trolling Trump and his supporters by tweeting like trump. Cracker barrel is a chain that caters to more senior citizens. it has a very old school, very iconic logo that defied all trends in design for the last 50 years. They tried to change it, got a huge backlash, so they cancelled the change, Trump obviously claimed this as a personal victory, so Newsom did the same, and some people apparently can't detect trolling.
- I just don't know enough about American politicians to be able to tell that it's a joke. With the stuff we see coming out of that country, it's not unreasonable to think that was a serious tweet.
He's made a habit of trolling rebulicans by acting like Trump.
Gavin Newsom is trolling trump by saying and typing things just like trump. In this particular one, he took credit for something he knows wasn't him. A MAGA dude thought he meant it and called Newsom stupid. Newsom is saying the MAGAS are too stupid to get it. Newsom didn't even type all caps, he's probably tired of acting like a narcissist.
- His press office account does the all caps
An anti-trans wealthy right-of-center politician is duping Democrat voters into giving him attention ahead of being nominated for president.
No, he's not "trolling" Trump or MAGA, he's not "pushing back". The only thing these tweets have any impact on are Democrat voters. He's performing for them.
- Having an attack dog in your corner is not a bad thing. He can draw attention away from real potential candidates for the Republican smear machine to focus on.
Not american either, I think we others can care about US politics when it's affecting the rest of the world, but we really dont have to understand or care about every shopping mall chain's logo, even if their politicians fight about it. So please, go ahead while we're waiting for results regarding Ukraine, Gaza, tariffs and that elite pedophile ring of yours.
