I hate to say this but if @gavinnewsom.bsky.social wants to make that long-coming grab for national attention and power, now is the time. The mic is standing there completely open for any democrat with a pulse. Pick it up and start screaming.

I mean, I expected it of @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social since he's the last-minute stand-in for Pelosi's understudy, who got knocked out of congress by @aoc.bsky.social.
But if there's a big break, this is it. Show anybody that he wasn't brought up because he didn't have the spine to rebel.
Yeah. A good many people made piss poor decisions during Covid, but that purity test is not a hill to die on right now. For some quite literally die on!
He fucking sucks, but any elected official with any ambition should be salivating at the opportunity to shit on a deeply unpopular president doing obviously stupid and illegal shit
To be clear, I am the opposite of a fan of Newsom, but he’s a smarmy cutthroat ruthless bastard who isn’t a Republican, and we’re very short on those right now.
I’ve never seen democrats more desperate for leadership and our so called party elders are sitting around going “hmm? Wha? Did you say the staged a chew? No I don’t use tobacco anymore.”
As a Californian, I'm also no fan of Newsom -- but Trump is on his way to performing a miracle and turning the opinion around, starting with this email:
The spotlight is just begging for a couple of people to step into it. The only requirements are to be able plainly and consistently state what is happening, and not to be beholden to antiquated ideas of norms.

It’s bizarre.
There’s a coup happening in plain sight and no one appears able to articulate it in front of a bank of television cameras.
Jeffries and Schumer are worthless.
But if there's a big break, this is it. Show anybody that he wasn't brought up because he didn't have the spine to rebel.
it pleases his ego to be thought a good man, which would be an upgrade
