Gavin Newsom is working hard to be the anti-Trump candidate. It’s obvious he wants to run in 2028 and is working hard to make himself the top dog in the Democratic field. It’s also a clown show, where most of what he proposes to fight Trump is either laughable or will never get off the ground, forever trapped in the land of the theoretical. Also, his policies have killed people.

Let’s start with the first salvo, which is the redistricting threat that most have ignored because it’s a big pile of who cares? Texas is going to push through a new map that reportedly gives the GOP five more seats. Gavin has threatened to do the same, but it doesn’t matter. First, California is already a gerrymandered blue state. Democrats dominate it. On, and did I mention it’s a blue state? There are more red states that can gerrymander and annihilate the Democrats—a glaring sign that this joke of a party is niche, out-of-touch, regional, and incapable of winning if they didn’t promote ungodly amounts of illegal immigration to increase their clout on the Hill via the census and congressional apportionment. That’s why they don’t want a secure border, but that’s for another time. 

Second, he and his press team are obsessed with Trump. It’s virtually stalking, and it’s getting creepy. You’d never think that his state endured one of the most destructive natural disasters in American history with last winter’s wildfire, which burned Los Angeles County to ash, but remember, Newsom just must respond to everything Trump does, maybe to hide his gross incompetence. He’s even tried to tweet like Trump in all caps, and it comes off as a Temu rip-off of the original.

 No one can replicate how Trump posts on social media.  

Third, this horrific trucker accident in Florida that left three people dead should be weaponized as Gavin’s ‘Willie Horton’ moment. Harjinder Singh, who entered the country illegally in 2018, obtained a commercial driver’s license in California and got people killed when he did an illegal U-turn. He’s been charged with three counts of vehicular homicide. It’s all on video; his reaction is stoic, maybe annoyed, and he should be given three life sentences. He also shouldn’t be here.  

Gavin Newsom is threatening to gerrymander an already deep-blue state, hasn’t rebuilt Los Angeles County, and has allowed illegals to get CDLs, which led to the deaths of three people. There might be similar incidents, but he’s being ‘tough’ on Trump on social media.  

This is the Democratic Party in 2025. It’s beyond unserious.
