So we're going to have to have a talk about this post in about June 2028 in the unfortunate circumstance Gavin Newsom somehow is the Dem nominee
Leftists in '25: We're not voting for Gavin
Leftists in '26: We're not voting for Gavin
Leftists in '27: We're not voting for Gavin
Leftists in '28: We're not voting for Gavin
Gavin in '28: *loses the general against a JD Vance/Erika Kirk ticket*
Liberals in '28: Why would leftists do this? 😡
Feb 2, 2026 17:41I am a Social Democrat, so kinda left on the ol’ leftist scale. Also, a California resident. I’ve called him out on BS, but also supported the good things. If the Governor is the nominee, I will vote for him. It’s that simple.
I'm not a fan of him, but I'll reluctantly vote for him because the alternative is far far worse for everyone
I think it's going to be hard to be the Dem nominee without winning California.
