Newsom is a piece of shit, and our next dem candidate, that most of you will browbeat us into pretending he's cool. Right before he changes nothing and hands it back to the republicans.
Because he's the uniparty, he's of the oligarchy, he is the oligarchy. Fuck this guy.
No fucking way Newsom get put up at this point, even by the corrupt corpo dems
Ha ha, you have a lot to learn about just how much the democratic establishment eats corporate dick. He is the frontrunner, make no mistake.
He could've stood up an taken the country in 2024 when we needed it, but he waited his turn, and now it's his turn.
It’ll be either Newsom or Harris again, because it’s still her turn.
Omfg this ride really never ends does it 🫠
They absolutely will put Newson up for president because he is one of their own.
It’s not red ha blue anymore, it’s corporate dems vs nwo oligarchs.
Oh he will the Democratic party have chosen thier candidate he been the choice for long time. They run primary and Harris be there and they might even run Hillary. Then they sprinkle in some moderates like oh Pete Buttigieg, just to make you think you have choices. If AOC runs then they throe Elizabeth Warren just to make sure it spilts that vote. Regardless Newsome will win the primary and he be a Blue Maga. Look how they already sabotaging their campaigns by abandoning trans people.
He just allowed the Paramount merger after promising not to sell out, and now he’s trying to kill a billionaire tax and make it illegal to try to make one in the future. People see him as the slimy car salesman he is? Even liberals don’t like him. Gavin Newsom is not making it far in 2028 I will tell you that.
You’re completely delusional if you think Clinton will run in the 2028 primaries.
From your lips to god’s ears
Inshallah
Oh god no, I don’t want newsom, I want pritzker
In 2024 Pritzker would have been great.
Now, we need a non rich asshole, (pritzker is a billionaire, hotel magnate,) and the person for the job, is the UAW Boss, Sean Fain. He can win.
Worse he right of Regan and base on his veto and his guest on his podcast by time the Dems shove him down our throats only difference will be from Trump will be his age. The Democrats love moving futher right every single time.
