Section 5: States Subject: Blue states plan anti-Trump fights Msg# 1215058

YES Gavin Newsome would love to run for US prez.
AND YES His in-state majority has been slipping. If there's more Calif blackouts and brown outs coming, these could cut into his national credibility. Also a potential problem in Maryland. Bears watching in the future, but a way off to worry about. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I actually wonder if the populations of some of these blue states are going to put up with the nonsense being perpetuated by their current governors? For example, Governor Gavin in California is clearly setting himself up for what he expects to be his 2028 run for president. But I suspect he doesn't realize that he is losing popularity in his home state even as he is making the national run--which he's been doing for at least a year (as he ignored his own constituents). Recall the debate on Fox with Ron DeSantis? His many many many jaunts across the country on speaking tours having nothing to do with governing California? But in fact, Californians are starting to become disgusted with many of the things happening there--crime is probably number one, followed closely by rampant state spending on ridiculous items. If Newsome loses support in CA--most especially if the state tries to impeach him for a second time--it is not going to sit well with the national Democrat party when they go looking for a presidential candidate in four years. But I really and truly do *not* think Newsome is smart enough to realize that. |
