There is a very well funded apparatus actively pushing him because he is a reactionary centrist who will make the rich richer, harm queer and trans people, and overall just such absolute shit. He must under no circumstances get close to the presidency.

Unacceptable! The super wealthy should pay their share! @governor.ca.gov @gavinnewsom.bsky.social

The water stuff was two years ago, this bullshit podcast and trans hatred is a little more recent. Just if anyone wants a timeline of when a Californian got fed up with Newsom.

Can you all start promoting a candidate you like? I am really not looking forward to front runner Newsom either, but literally, someone needs to step up.

@pftompkins.bsky.social another reason to hate him!

I won't vote for him in a primary.

Here is what I sent my governor to tell him that stopping the tax of billionaires. Feel free to use any of it. Full text in ALT text.

Everyday this becomes more true

Does Gov Haircut put forth his rationale?

Anyone who stands with Newsom might as well stand with wealthy elites. He changed at some point and he will never get my vote for potus.

Some are calling this one-time tax a wealth grab. Then don't do it just one time. What they could do is tax billionaires 5% of their wealth EVERY year until they aren't billionaires any more. They shouldn't worry, they'll earn enough annually to remain billionaires.

Yes but critically not a pos

I'll vote for him in the general to keep a republican out of office, but then I'll hound and criticize his bad policies when he's in office.

We need leaders to fight for the working class, not billionaires Hey @democrats.org we must do better than Gavin Newsom #TaxTheRich

He is awful - will say anything to get elected but he is the problem for all of us - excepting wealthy people of course.

Disappointing.

The two party system is a joke.

"Stops billionaire tax" sure sounds like a king. At least it checks one of the top 3 boxes. No kings in America

I try not to get depressed by how far along to dystopia telegenic hair & teeth will take us

Being mean to them socially (which matters not at all) and being very nice to them legislatively (which is all that matters).

Trust me, it's either this or Bernie having power and they love Fascism/Appeasement more than Socialism (or just a crumb step towards it).
