    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.

      He’s a transphobe that would gladly put homeless people in a woodchipper.

        Agreed that sicking the cops on homeless people is bad policy, and doing that in response to a court ruling without plan to actually help people is egregious. Does seem like he took an opportunity to disguise a NIMBY directive behind a court ruling.

        Transphobe though? What he diverges on the specific issue of trans women/girls in gender protected sports divisions and we just have to throw out everything else he’s supported or signed laws for trans and gay rights in the last 20 years?

          He literally invited Charlie Kirk to his podcast and agreed with him about transgender ideology being a problem. That’s clear cut transphobia.

          Something something California uber alles

          Nothing new exists… yeah Ronald Reagan is objectively worse than governer moonbeam but brown picked up the same mantle. Hypothetical example newsome runs for pres, wins and he paints the wall white but doesn’t tear it down.

          Nah he’s not an overt fascist, not the same as Donny in that way, but he is not an answer to fascism either. We need radical change
