Gavin Newsom addresses the nation

[ZenMode]

California is why he ain’t neva gonna be president now

I wouldn't be too confident. Newsom fits the prototypical "US President" mold pretty damn well.

Mitt Romney was far less charismatic, and a Mormon, and almost beat Obama.

Huh... I don't remember the margin being that big.

Well, nonw of the Rs that are going to run will be comparable to Obama and Newsom fits the mold pretty damn well.

They know, but if they acknowledge it as mockery they implicitly acknowledge the ridiculousness and stupidity of Trump.

The Catch-22 is that if they acknowledge it’s mockery, they acknowledge how stupid all of that Trump stuff is. But if they don’t acknowledge it’s mockery, then it makes them look like they actually think all that Trump stuff is cool, which should be even more embarrassing.

If he was truly going to mimic Trump, he’d snort adderall, cheat at golf, rape underage girls, and shit in his adult diapers after eating too many Big Macs.

Take out

Far different California. It was still the Golden State.

Never thought I’d ever hear the words “genius” and “Trump” in the same sentence, unless Trump was saying it, of course. JD Vance is such a weirdo.

What about “authentic” or “talk honestly with people.”

When Reagan was elected POTUS, it was the 7th largest economy in the world. Reagan liked to tout that.

Today, it’s the 4th largest economy in the world.

Cal Supreme Court is very liberal these days. Looks like the democrats played fast and loose with the rules to get this issue on the November ballot, but the supreme court said FAFO to Texas.

Nevada and Arizona are purple.

Iowa, Ohio, and Florida are RED.

Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania are purple.

New Hampshire is likely blue for POTUS; it could go red for Senate and Governor.

Maine’s 2nd Congressional District is red.

We’re not winning 332-206 anytime soon.

I think he was just countering Zen's assertion that Romney "almost beat" Obama.

I know he was.

I was commenting that the Democrats won’t see an Electoral College like that for a LONG TIME. That’s the HIGHWATER mark for Democrats. That’s our best case scenario - we’re not winning OH or FL in a long ass time.

It’s obvious that JD Vance is a fake, wimpy WEIRD guy.

That said, his comments in his “interview” with noted journalist Laura Ingraham were laughable.

Vance talked about being “authentic” and “honest.”

Vance: “I’m sick of politics, Laura.”

Then, a JD Vance laugh in response to a hugely funny Ingraham comment/question…..

…..it’s an authentic and sincere laugh.

Then…..

“I-I mean look (pause)…the autopsy for the Democrats (pause)….some free political advice from the President of the United States is stop sounding like crazy people…that….that really is all it is….”

Still Vance: “The idea that Gavin Newsom is going to somehow mimic Donald Trump’s style, I think that ignores the fundamental genius of President Trump’s political success; which is that he is authentic. That is just who he is.”

Still Vance: “You gotta be yourself. You….you actually have to talk to people honestly about the issues. I don’t think it’s that complicated. Don’t be a crazy person.”

“Be authentic.”

So says Mr. Authentic, JD Vance.
