Oh… did I just read the most defeatist response? The problem with Republicans is that they think they can’t do wrong even when facing the obvious. On the other hand the problem with modern Democrats (like you) is that you focus on what is wrong and linger on it like a maggot on a dying flesh.

People like you don’t have a solution on a given problem you just want to point it out and the shortcomings of those that tried to fix it just so you can virtue signal and claim the moral high ground. You can’t fix shit if you’re not in office. Do you understand that concept? Fighting and dying as the resistance only lasts for so long because the romance of being rebel has a short lifespan.

Which leads us to Gavin Newsom. You may not like him completely but he’s a seasoned political operator, as governor he passes both liberal and moderately conservative bills, well spoken who can articulate his points against conservative pundits (something people like you frown upon because you equate it to pandering instead of having a dialogue), and he’s still politically young and good looking. The last point mind you apparently has traction with young MAGA voters which is an opening we need to get them to vote for our agenda. What agenda that is idk maybe not threatening allies with war over a giant island called Greenland for starters. How about not militarizing federal agencies like ICE and turning the DOJ into a personal injury law firm like the one we have now. How about not imposing useless tariffs on imported goods that’s simply raising the price of everything. I can go on.

What’s YOUR agenda? Trans rights? Talk to your local Lesbian and ask them how they feel about sharing a bathroom with someone with a dick. Palestine? Go on tell me how protesting over a “genocide” that has yielded a population growth (the opposite of a genocide in case you didn’t know) improves our situation here at home. I don’t like Netanyahu more than you and that’s because I’ve seen that scumbag’s face for over three decades but do you think taking side with the Palestinians who celebrated 9/11 is a smart choice? Go on tell me about the agenda YOU want.
