Is there anything he can do to get your support?

In the D primary? Hard pass.
🤔
I’m not voting for another mediocre white man with a bad haircut.
That little voice in your head? Listen to it about people.
Rather than thinking about the next election I'd rather they focus on preventing the eroding of ALL rights and our federal government by being bold and vocal no matter what it costs.
I'd vote for anyone who did that with consistency.
Putting Charlie Kirk on his podcast and tossing trans people under the bus means I will be going out of my way to make damn sure he doesn't get the Dem nod.
If politicians aren't AFRAID of you, they won't RESPECT you. Why should they? They have a pulse, ergo they have your vote.
They can betray all your values, but they have a pulse! And you'll always vote for them! So why should they listen to you?
There’s a reason we’re the world’s oldest democracy.
Drastic changes are made difficult because w/o overwhelming support for changes there’s backlash.
True.
But when the pendulum swings too far…
I’ve agreed with some of his actions as governor and commitment to climate change. BUT no.
The D party needs to coalesce around a broader platform and younger, more vibrant candidate. And one from minority persuasion.
Damn straight. There's no going back from that. Whatever issues he had before, he's now a hard no.
Hard no? That probably means he will 100% be who the Dems push 😂
Fuck you, too.

I heard he kinda sucks but damnnnnn. No wonder I see republicans claiming him.
Also, no!
In other words, fuck NO!
Fkn nasty ⚪.
Charlie Kirk?
Really?
What sort of parenting goes on there?
[Ken] :murders Josh:
I wouldn't cast a primary vote for the guy either.
He isn’t fighting. He’s _campaigning_.
The fact that someone who communicates as eloquently and efficiently as Newsom can't push back against them *on his own podcast* tells me he is complicit.
What's that fucking tell you?
Disabuse yourself
I'd hate to lose Pritzker as my governor, but as for Newsom? He needs to go away.
He lost my vote a long time ago with his mediocre governance of California and lack of focus on the job. Throwing Trans people under the bus was the last straw.
We have serious issues here in California that require serious leadership, which Newsom has failed to provide time and time again.
No
Transphobes are fascists, especially in this milieu. So lordy, Gav.
If he runs against JD Vance in the general election: Yes!!!
Die.
He could die.
Then I'd support him.
