California’s governor is being touted as a successor to the Biden throne. Though he’s often imagined as a beacon of progress, his feckless record shows otherwise.
Newsom is your average neoliberal. As much as I like seeing someone troll Krasnov it’s important to remember that neoliberals are not going to help anyone but themselves and their corporate donors.
Well, history has shown that your fellow Americans do not agree with you. There is plenty of time to find a candidate that will actually be popular with voters
I suppose in the same way that tornado sirens always ends in a tornado tearing through a trailer park. But I’m sure that this centrist liberal will finally be the one to beat fascism
He’s been pushing back in a lot of ways. I don’t like him and would vote against him in a primary, but I’d absolutely vote for him if he wins the nomination.
As to what he’s done, here are a few things off the top of my head:
Began the process of redistricting CA to offset what TX is doing.
Sued to keep the national guard from being deployed to LA.
Pushed back on repeal of the EV mandate.
Again, I don’t like him. He’s slimy. I still will vote for him if he’s nominated.
Hmm, who do I support: Someone who I don’t necessarily agree with on every issue or the guy actively working to destroy my country and those of our allies? Tough call.

I’ll take the neo-liberal over the outright nazi fascist, thanks

History actually shows that crying “that candidate isn’t progressive enough” ends in actual fascism.

Keep doing the fascist’s work for them
Exactly.
Progressives should learn their place and do what they’re told.
It’s not like there’s enough of us to change things.
Who benefits from this anti-Newsom rhetoric? Trump and Co, not progressives.
What’s anti-Newsom about getting progressives ready to hold their nose as usual?
Besides, he’s not even the nominee and maybe making him look bad will get some other liberal the win.
Congrats, you’ve fallen into the divided party trap. Or is the trap what you’re actually pushing?
I’ve been at that party since I had a Kucinich for President bumper sticker and made a deal with someone in a blue state to vote for Nader.
I hate that I have to be a Democrat and don’t want to be one. But I have to be otherwise I can’t make my displeasure known in the primaries.
People with the ability to reason, and if we have a primary, to choose the best candidate.
Yeah but he’s one of the few Democrats actually doing something against Trump and co.
What’s he actually doing? Having his social media manager write zingers for him? I’m sure Trump is so scared.

Writing mean tweets, so that’s all that needs to be done according to them.
