He's vetoed a number of LGBTQ+ protection bills, refused to enforce California state law to protect trans kids, and instructed the police to break up anti-ICE protests.

He's had far-right figures like Charlie Kirk and Steve Bannon on his podcast, where he repeatedly agreed with basically everything

Like they're taking away the right to a jury trial, and to appeal criminal convictions; they're banning trans people from public life; they're talking about deporting citizens.

Things can get so, so much worse if the "left-wing" party adopts right-wing ideology!

I would agree with you if not for how things are going in the UK right now, where the Labour government under Starmer have turned out worse than the Tories ever were for marginalized people.

I think you're underestimating how bad it could get if someone like Newsom gets the reins.

My personal bet is Newsom ends up like Jeb! did, because there'll be nothing keeping him relevant after he leaves office in 2026.

Newsom has done basically everything he possibly could to enable Trump's anti-trans and anti-immigrant policies on the ground

Anyways I wouldn't vote for either of the top options on this list in the general lmao

Still, I think polling for 2028 now is basically meaningless, lmao, voters have goldfish memories

Democrats in 2025:

"Why aren't college students protesting"
