Low standards is what got us here.
I mean, unless Newsom has some kind of road to Damascus experience, I doubt that heโs gonna change from being a Republican piece of shit in Democrat clothing. Letโs not forget what Harry Truman said in 1952 about that:

Probably would be easier for my kids to get health care in California. Thank god we donโt live in that state with a transphobe governor.

No! You donโt have to love him. In fact, you should hate him. A pro corporate, bully to the vulnerable, anti-worker creep like him will not be president. Heโs literally Trump Lite โข

I mean, maybe this is a brilliant Andy Kaufman level satire thatโs going over our heads? Seems unlikely, but you never know.

You shouldnโt vote for Newsom either. Between his transphobia, antiworker, and anti homeless policies and the fact he and Harris come from similar beginnings in politics, I would suggest supporting someone else. Especially when people wonโt vote for him in the general.

Iโm sorry, you think clown liberal disenfranchisement, which at best is a โhold your nose and vote for it,โ is standing up for democracy? Especially from someone who runs away from standing up for people. Youโre not a serious person.

What started the conversation is that someone picked two unelectable, anti-worker, transphobes, and an imperialistic genocide defending loser to lose to the Republicans. You turned this into a strawman argument about AOC when we donโt have the data to make claims about her.
19.11.2025 17:40 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0
You also have bad political analysis. So who cares about what you think. The fact is we have no evidence either way to say sheโd win or lose. So letโs not worry about this until she runs. Itโs more likely sheโs going to run for Schumerโs seat. If NY state votes for her, youโll be proven wrong.
19.11.2025 17:24 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0
So you look at a dumb popularity contest with no real information other than if people heard of these people, with an unelectable, anti-worker transphobe on the top of the list, and you think he can beat JD Vance? Oh, honey, no. Only clowns like you will vote for him. Itโs 2024 all over again.

What a weird strawman argument. First of all AOC hasnโt expressed interest in being president. We donโt know how people outside her district would vote because we only know how her district voted.
Obamaโs, Clintonโs, and Harrisโs incompetence got us here. Maybe we need an adult in the room?

Iโm sorry, what evidence do you have to support your argument? Because thatโs a counter factual statement at this point. Also, is she even running?
No, itโs your low standards, elder abuse in 2020, clown liberalism that got us here. Continuing to be a clown is the real problem. Stop it. Be an adult
19.11.2025 17:11 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0
No he isnโt. Heโs a transphobic asshole. If he canโt stand up for the vulnerable, he has no place in politics.
19.11.2025 16:57 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 1
So you would switch one unelectable clown liberal for a different unelectable clown liberal?

Newsom is an unserious pick because heโs an unserious prick. Being a governor of a blue state should make it easy to defend the vulnerable and worker rights. Heโs done the opposite. The man is unelectable.

Low standards got us Trump. Keeping low standards is going to get us something worse than Trump.
I donโt know about you, but I want something better than Trump Lite โข
We have to break this cycle. You seem to be part of the problem.

There isnโt much of a difference from the ghouls you picked. We donโt need clown liberals to replace clown fascists.

Itโs funny what a false choice Newsom is. Yes, he would do a lot of what you mentioned.
To avoid this we need to elect someone who actually has plans, real ideas. Not some elitist who tries to run to the right of a fascist.

Nobody is running. Right now itโs a popularity contest.

Youโll definitely lose with that ticket. No vision, corporate tools, anti-worker, anti trans, and pro genocide. The American people will stay home for such an uninspiring, unelectable trio of entitled elitists.

Imagine how shallow that is. Buttigiegโs failure of vision is only going to allow a worst version of Trump to take office. The best way to do that is to offer an alternative. A real alternative. Not what he offers.

I canโt tell if this is Andy Kaufman level trolling or a conservative bot to discredit Epstein allegations, but either way itโs gross.

If you canโt see that this story has been around longer than Trump was pulled back in to politics, then I think youโre defending abusing women. Epstein and Maxwell was in the Clinton White House as early as 1993. Thatโs before Trumpโs first run for president.

At the very least he enabled it. Just like you are. But his painting on Epsteinโs wall suggests that itโs a lot more complicated.
