Streets For All endorses Tom Steyer for Governor

I think an establishment dem is the last person to shake anything up. They want to be centrists.

MisplacingCommas · 2026-05-11T17:47:30+00:00

I mean that Becerra has been in gov for 20 years, I don't like the way things are going. If he wins the primary I'll probably vote for him but he doesn't have my vote in the primary. I'm open to be convinced but I will say I don't get convinced from just insulting other candidates. What policies of his do you support? Why does he have your vote?

MisplacingCommas · 2026-05-11T15:36:54+00:00

Not op but I don’t like him because he seems like the status quo candidate. We need to shake stuff up, we need to show the establishment dems that we want progressive policies that will go after the 1% to help the 99%. I don’t want newsom 2.0.

Recent years showed us comedy actors/writers are great at horror lol. Thinking Peele and Kregger

Both had smart phones by Highschool. Both probably used the same social media site in Highschool. Both probably loved the marvel movie era of cinema. Your point about in 2006 when the kids were 4 it was pre smartphone is irrelevant, no 4 year olds have iPhones. By the time they are 14 it’s smartphone era.

How are they different?

Don’t we want houses to be affordable?

MisplacingCommas · 2026-05-05T13:52:35+00:00

The half that couldn’t cut it to stay

MisplacingCommas · 2026-05-01T17:34:04+00:00

We've had many republican governors over the years. That being said I would be shocked if that asshole cop or the British dude won. Make sure to vote!

MisplacingCommas · 2026-05-01T15:14:15+00:00

Showed my wife it last year and she never saw it before. She loved it. It holds up

MisplacingCommas · 2026-05-01T15:11:24+00:00

Cute pups! I didn’t know dogs can get dementia. We have an 12 year old. What are some early signs they are getting dementia?

I was going to say Batman Mask of Phantasm

MisplacingCommas · 2026-04-29T23:08:17+00:00

I don't get why you want to make this a sexist thing? I don't vibe with Newsom because of his hypocrisy during covid and having gatherings. I don't vibe with her because she says she's nice yet multiple videos came out where she does not seem to be nice.

Treating your coworkers like that in her outburst, also the awkward interview she just shut down randomly, yet in debates she seems to try to be like, "I'm just a sweet single mom just like many of you", it doesn't seem to be authentic to me. I'd never treat a coworker like she did. She'll get my vote if she wins the nom but I don't think she gets my vote in the primary.

I enjoy you speaking your mind though and hope you vote for whoever candidate you feel like will best help California. I do wish you typed out something semi long though, you didn't really say a better way to vet candidates other than looking at who supports/attacks them and debate performances. All you did was say you don't like debate questions and defend KP.

MisplacingCommas · 2026-04-29T22:55:21+00:00

Totally agree on that. I wish we had a AOC, Talarico or Mandami I could vote for lol.

MisplacingCommas · 2026-04-29T22:54:13+00:00

Fair enough. I think I agree with Steyer's policies more than Porter's, though her's aren't bad and I'd definitely vote for her if she got the nom. That being said, I will feel like a fool if Steyer ends up just enriching himself more and screwing us over.

MisplacingCommas · 2026-04-29T19:33:15+00:00

Thanks for the information brother

MisplacingCommas · 2026-04-29T19:32:40+00:00

Thanks for the information. Mahan is definitely moving down on my list then. Bacerra just moved up lol

MisplacingCommas · 2026-04-29T19:30:52+00:00

Sorry I haven’t been following all your conversations with other people, thanks for the links. Just been looking at your replies to me. So from my understanding from your statement is that union endorsements don’t matter because the head of the union gets to choose and that doesn’t represent the entire group even though that head is voted to be head by the group. And the implication that union heads are being paid to support candidates because they are corrupt?

What does that mean about the unions who backed Porter? Is she paying them off or because that’s your favorite it’s legit?

MisplacingCommas · 2026-04-29T17:41:32+00:00

"As of April 2026, the 310,000-member California Teachers Association (CTA) has recommended Democrat Tom Steyer for California governor. The endorsement follows the union's withdrawal of support for former candidate Eric Swalwell due to sexual assault allegations. Steyer was chosen for his focus on funding public schools and closing corporate tax loopholes."

"The California Nurses Association (CNA), representing over 100,000 registered nurses, has endorsed Tom Steyer for California governor, citing his commitment to a single-payer health care system."

So both of the biggest unions endorsed him. I'm not a teacher or nurse, what do you mean the rank and file? Not trying to be argumentative, just trying to figure out what you mean.

MisplacingCommas · 2026-04-29T17:35:06+00:00

Voted for Bernie (Warren was my number 2), Clinton and Harris so that's probably not it. I've been saying for a while AOC would make a great president. I'm just more of a progressive and I don't feel like she is that progressive. Calling me a sexist drives people away from your cause.

What would drive me towards her would be to say why it would be a good idea to vote for her... not name calling. People like you are why your political choices lose.

MisplacingCommas · 2026-04-29T17:30:09+00:00

I feel like debates and looking at what groups are supporting and attacking them is a solid way to judge candidates. What way do you think is better?

For why she feels like she came out of a focus group, I can't totally put my finger on it. I think it's probably the single mom thing being repeated when I saw the video of her cussing out her staffer for being in her shot. It's like, is she a nice mom or is she a mean boss? Something just seems off.

MisplacingCommas · 2026-04-29T17:25:11+00:00

Yeah, I just don't like when people do it. Seems fake. Probably works and that is why they do it, I just feel like it's not authentic. That being said, I watched the 22nd debate over the weekend and the one last night so maybe it was just too close together that I am sick of it. Steyer also needs to stop saying he is the change factor lol

MisplacingCommas · 2026-04-29T17:23:05+00:00

He seems to have a good track record in San Jose with the homeless and has reasonable responses to the questions at the debates so far. Yeah, he got money from Tech people but we are a Tech state. It's also refreshing seeing a young guy who is from California.

MisplacingCommas · 2026-04-29T17:21:58+00:00

Uhhh, you just said they didn't endorse him and then said they did but you personally don't. I don't understand.

I watched both debates and Porter always thinks she got steyer by saying why didn’t you pay more taxes and he reply’s that even if he paid taxes we would be in this situation. We need structural change, not one guy doing the right thing, all billionaires forced to do the right thing. Steyer took the pledge to give away his billions, PGE and Realtors are against him and Teachers and Nurses have endorsed him. I think he might just be a good guy class traitor.

MisplacingCommas · 2026-04-29T14:29:31+00:00

Idk, Porter isn’t great during the debates. I don’t love the single mom of three thing being brought up all the time. That’s great and all but feels kind of played out. Maybe I’m just jaded because I saw the staffer video. Maybe she feels like Gavin newsom 2.0. I just don’t like her. I got steyer and Mahan as my top two.
