CA Gov Gavin Newsom "Completely Aligns" With Charlie Kirk On Trans Issues In Podcast

We really need a new political party.

Newsom has always been a shallow chameleon populist who's main goal was to accumulate more power and influence.

Now that he's achieved his aim of two terms as governor of California, he's set his sights on the next level up: the Presidency. But he knows to stand even a chance of becoming the Dem nominee that he needs to move to the right quite a lot so he can be even considered by the more conservative rural Midwest. Turning against trans rights is low hanging fruit when it comes to that.

The stupid thing is that regardless, most independents and even moderate conservatives will never accept him. His legacy as the firebrand liberal from San Francisco is forever on him.

But still he's trying, because he's self-centered and callous. And in the process of failing in this new goal he's revealed to anyone not already aware that he's a fraud. And he's hurting lots of incident people in the process.

Welp...

Looks like Newsome is attempting to mitigate possible damage inflicted on his state by the current occupant(s) of the oval office.

That, or as lame duck governor, he's just decided to be as feckless/spinless/balless as all other establishment Dems.

Ya know, could be both. 🤷‍♂️ 🤦‍♀️

Having read the transcript, no, he does not. There's absolutely no reason beyond "both sides" bullshit to connect the two. Unlike Kirk, he didn't go on hateful tirades about groomers, drag shows, or pedophiles.

Having been disappointed by Newsom several times, what he did say in the podcast continues his disappointing trend and gives unacceptable levels of support to crazy conservative garbage thinking.

You can think Newsom said something terrible without taking the opportunity to make Kirk seem like he isn't a hateful extremist.

That's one way to lose the next Presidential election.

Just embarrassing, but people knew who was really for a long time. I'm tired of this genre of Democrats.

Why do none of these weaklings ever point out the obvious: it does not matter if transgender people are in sports. Sports are a form of entertainment, nothing great will be accomplished for humanity purely by playing sports. The goal is literally active fun you can participate in with peers and demonstrate physical ability and/or teamwork. Excluding any peers who aren't causing literal harm (as in, cis parents assaulting referees) for appearance's sake completely loses the point of the whole thing. Hell , I think gender splits before puberty are stupid as hell, and unless you fund and support women's sports equally (looking at you, NCA) there's no point in splitting adults up either. Do it by class, experience, whatever. Stop separating children by genitals unless you want a fucking misogynist theocracy.

Fuck dude, I hope that all the calls that his office is getting shows him he fucked up. The right will never like him, they view him as a globalist who believes in science and shit.

Maybe, maybe, he will have a trans advocate on his podcast who will give the information about how BS this shit was. But even if he does, the damage has been done.

This is another moment that shows why we need to remake the democratic party during the primaries next year. We need to go out and vote for progressive candidates so people like Newsom see that progressive is the right way to go, not this shit he's doing.

what is that yee yee ass hairstyle
