Newsome isn’t progressive and is a very pro-corporate neo-liberal. My opinion hasn’t changed, but somebody needs to stand up to Trump and it might as well be him, even if it’s just an opportunity for him to posture for a 2028 run.
Sometimes I have to remind myself that a politician pretending to care and doing everything based on optics can still further the progressive agenda. Progress is still progress I guess.
He’s 100% the DNC guy, he’ll probably have signs that say it’s his turn. Only semi good thing is he’ll have a much better chance of winning than Hillary or Kamala had. AOC is the best choice and has the best chance of winning imo. Gavin is probably the 2nd best choice(electability-wise).
Generally pissed at him for being a corporate shill who actively harms unsheltered people and takes any opportunity to get a photo op or hot take that he thinks will help his presidential run in 2028, while posing like a smarmy, aging GQ model.
Listened to the segment and yeah, he’s a politician: saying anything in a noncommittal way to get people in the room onto his side. He’s not principled for sure, but in this case I genuinely don’t think he was airing a true personal perspective either.
What was the public opinion on Newsom before this current shit show?

more like a playgirl model who once tried out for GQ
He was sucking up to MAGA and literally had Steve Bannon on his podcast.
Don’t trust him he’s an opportunist.
Can’t fuckin stand his neolib ass.
He said something about unfairness in sports due to players that have transitioned being a concern that was worth looking into
Thus, many vocal trans rights advocates have blacklisted him

Political opportunist. He hasn’t changed.
