    I’m saying that the majority of voters are sexist.

    I don’t buy that narrative. I think republicans are sexist and democrats need someone they can actually trust to vote for. That’s not gonna be newsom, but unless there’s a strong candidate on the progressive side that can overcome the party’s ratfuckery, we’re gonna get stuck with newsom.

    Which means he’ll lose to whoever his republican opponent is, and the left is gonna get blamed again, and the party will shift even further to the right and throw more vulnerable minorities under the bus in a fruitless attempt to gain republican votes.

      I think you surround yourself with good people and believe that to be how the rest of the country is. A lot of voters are racist, sexist, idiots.

        Yes, and they aren’t going to vote for newsom either, no matter how many of his opinions he gets from charlie kirk.
