There is a $200m election funding war chest that can only be used by Biden or Harris, so it will be either Biden or Harris, well, not "either" anymore. The rest is noise.
Get some popcorn for the August harris-Trump debates
He is handsome, charming, and an amazing liar. For people who don’t follow politics, he can really fool many, blatantly lying as if it was the truth…his truths. He is actually quite dangerous.
Gavin Newsom is the embodiment of everything that Progressives loathe in Donald Trump. He is immoral, a narcissist, and a pathological liar in Democrat clothing. There is a penny's worth of difference between Trump and Newsom.
I am a native Californian and Gavin Newsom is the worst governor we've had in the past 50 years -- even worse than Gray Davis! He is a caricature of a human being. He has no principles, no integrity, no morals and no leadership ability to govern. He is great hair on top of an empty suit covering a hollow heart and a dark soul. As they say in the Republic of Texas, he is all hat and no ranch!
I visited California in 2022 for three weeks: San Diego, Santa Monica and LA. I had never seen so many homeless encampments in my life. Tents on sidewalks in every major area we visited. Sincerely crazy and violent homeless people wandering the streets of Hollywood, Santa Monica, and Sand Diego near the beaches. Graffiti everywhere and trashed neighborhoods. We saw $10 million dollar houses with homeless encampments on the sidewalks in front of the houses. Venice Beach looked like a war zone. California was a bad, dystopian nightmare. No Gavin Newsom for our country, please. Save us from his ineptitude.
Gavin Newsom has ruined California and now he wants to franchise! Newsom and his California Democratic Party built all those homeless encampments with their well-intentioned but misguided policies and their utter inability to deal with unintended consequences and the problems their policies create. Newsom kept his "emergency" powers for almost two years after the COVID pandemic ended, and his party failed to be the check and balance Californians want and need!
What makes you say the policies were unintended? This explanation assumes that the people who made the policies have zero understanding of “human nature” a zero knowledge oh history and of other places on the planet. They would have to be total fools to expect results any different to what has transpired. So the sensible conclusion is that it is the voters who are fools for believing the grift the progressives spew. As the software salesmen say; consequences ARE not a bug, they are a feature.
I live in Oregon, and used to live in San Francisco. I could never vote for Newsome because he supported putting rapists in women's prisons, letting men cheat in women's sports, etc. Now he wants to prevent parents from being told when their kids seek to transition. We in Oregon have experienced property price spikes due to the many Californians moving here to flee Newsome's hideous laws. It's very sad to see.
With the loss of over one million people who have fled California, we should have a surplus of houses. Unfortunately, there is a constant backfill of illegal immigrants who are ever in need of houses, thus pushing the cost of home upward.
California's housing problem is very largely a result of its illegal immigration problem. The state has invited millions of illegal immigrants with free health care, free housing, and immunity from prosecution for all but the worst crimes, and then can't understand why housing is in short supply. Blaming environmentalists for attempting to preserve a bit of green space, or communities for trying to preserve a bit of their traditional character, is nonsensical when an open borders policy guarantees a constant flow ever-growing demand for housing and social services. Then we are surprised when housing is expensive, homeless encampments are everywhere, and property crime is spirlling.
He lost me during the pandemic, still requiring me to pay corporate tax, workers comp, quarterly unemployment tax all while demanding my business remain closed.
Ethnic studies and his new media literacy law is indoctrination encouraging students to report on each other for thoughtcrimes, don the mantle of victimhood and abandon critical thinking.
Remember the bonuses teachers received for returning to their classrooms during COVID? They received them for showing up for part of a single day as the end of the 2020/2021 school year.
Remember how well he got along with his San Francisco campaign manager's wife?
Or how about the struggle to keep him out of his wife's hometown social club?
Too many of us see politics as mere sport or amusement. Have some fun with your reporting, FP, but don't give up advocating for virtue and competence in our elected representatives.
Nellie, you lost me at "Personally, I live Gavin." How can someone as smart as you appear to be, like this con artist? That makes me profoundly sad.

DeSantis wiped the floor with him during their debate. Gavin's wife tapped out and called it off during a commercial break.

I think his main strength is that he’s almost as good at marketing himself as is Donald Trump.
Why do people in CA expect the government to be concerned with their sexual preferences? Haven’t they heard about separation of powers.

It’s actually; ”all hat and no cows”
All hat, no cattle - if you wanna get technical
Unmentioned premise here is that Biden is dumped/resigns because he literally can’t keep up. A lot changes in two weeks.

Maybe if we choose Gavin for President, a boatload of people will flee the US?

The DNC is rather lacking in critical self-awareness.
