Unsurprisingly, there has been little indication the American progressive left perceives Newsom as deserving anything but disdain. Recent weeks have only bolstered the sense that committing to the abolition of ICE is a prerequisite for any remotely moral candidate in 2028. If Newsom fails to become that candidate, it will not be because he appeared too left-wing, but because he lacked the guts or the inclination to be anything except what he manifestly is: a preening political operator, beholden to a status quo that no longer exists.
yeah, it’s a fucking broken record at this point. Every single fucking time, since I’ve been alive, it’s always “well this time it’s different for the Liberal/Democrat vote, because of some small stupid innocuous change”
And then it never is different. Always some weird cheating ratchet to the right bullshit happens. Rinse and repeat. I’m so sick of it.

Yeah it’s sad/amazing how many will ignore how the dems will both let the system be broken and not do anything to actually fix it once back in power
What’s more annoying is the liberals who, for some unfathomable reason, think it’s awesome.
