Gavin Newsom is a transphobe "show me the evidence" thread, for all those Vote Blue No Matter Who posters in your replies.

this isn't the guy. push back on everyone who is trying to convince you the primary has been decided years in advance with a guy that loses in the general.

  1. wealthy, white, transphobe, anti-union, anti-worker, anti-climate, pro-landlord...

    there is a litany of reasons to not vote for him, none of which are outweighed by "his new social media manager is a poster of some skill"

  2. Yeah anybody that actually lives in CA has told me how much of a scumbag this guy is and I'm telling you that nobody in the middle of the country is going to vote for the guy. Seems like a real lose-lose to me, but considering the DNC leadership...that's just par for the course.

  3. Centrists shouldn’t like him on his record either. No way does this man stand for the things we need our opposition candidate to stand for. I’m glad he’s resisting the administration in CA but that’s as far as it goes.

  4. YES CHELSEA. Ask anyone in California if this man deserves a bigger role and they would say emphatically no. Gavin has no moral compass and he also has no will or competence to do his current job let alone a bigger one.

  5. Thank you. Everything he does is performative in order to run for President and the blue no matter who folks lap it up. Let me know when he actually helps anyone other than himself.

  6. I’m not even anti-Newsom. I’ll vote for him. I just want to hear what other options are available. They’re pushing Newsom like the right pushed Trump. Are we just MAGA Blue now?

  7. It used to be "Vote Blue No Matter Who" with me, but when I was shouting that shit, it was when the candidate was selected (Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris), and then Newsom appeared and I am like, legitimately concerned because JFC...

    Why are we platforming bigotry?

  8. As a lifelong Californian thank you for the thread. I enjoy the trolling, but that isn't him it's his media team, and he is a horrid idea for national office and I would fight to prevent that.

  9. I'll give him credit for handing Trump's bullshit back to him (even though everyone should've been doing it the whole time anyway), but yeah, this ain't the guy for the job of fixing the rubble that's been made of this country over the last several years.

  10. Hello my friend, sorry for bothering you. I just want a minute of your time to share my post so that the picture of my daughter, Salma, reaches people with kind hearts and helps her walk on her feet. Please.

  11. I'm so fortunate that none of the Liberal accounts I follow on here directly go for this. Nay, most of them seem to outright despise Newsom. They might normally be "Vote Blue No Matter Who" types, but with Newsom (and Cuomo too) they're like "Nah, I'm actually with the Leftists on this one."

  12. They keep ignoring people who a #ScrewedNoMatterWho after 3 straight screwy primaries.

    "We all need to come together" they say while pushing people under the fascist bus.

  13. They act like the people who care about this are holding out because of some Fringe issue and not because it is a matter of survival. We're going to need to identify and primary as many transphobic Democrats as possible. It's the only way to show them this is a losing stance.
