Which policies has he enacted in CA which mirror or support trickle down? All I ever hear is how he’s not progressive enough, but when I look at his record I see a LOT of progressive action. Much like how he’s “anti trans” for not signing 1 bill, he signed numerous others that year protecting queer people, and now he’s being attacked for being too pro-trans.
It’s pretty funny watching the left split and splinter this far out, because of all the purity testing. No one will ever be progressive enough, pure enough. And if somehow they were perfect enough to appease the left wing, there’d be 0 chance of getting red votes.
The next Dem who gets elected will do so using some centrist attitudes including towards social issues which we’re losing on badly. Might be time to get wise to that.
It’s like the old saying - do you want to be right, or do you want to be happy? Should we wait for the perfect candidate, or should we, IDK, maybe try to win the next election?

Because locking up homeless people is a) totally effective policy making and b) totally progressive.
more directly, to the economy, his buddy-buddy relationship with the techbros is… obvious.
25 million to help fund a microchip design facility,
85 million on generative ai
downsizing a deal with google to protect local-to-ca newsrooms
while when faced with a ballooning deficit, instead cut healthcare, education, and enviromental programs.
Remember: Tweets are not policy… and all this fun shit trolling trump probably isn’t even him tweeting it. (most likely, he’s only scarcely aware of it at all.)

The last november election day, every democratic candidate that won, won on progressive platforms. Specifically, platforms that Newsom has a shitty record on. Your argument cuts both ways.
Also, how did all those red votes Harris got work out for her? She’s an awesome president- Oh. wait. that’s right SHE FUCKING LOST.
Do you see how that argument is holding us back? Centrists do not win elections. Alienating your actual base loses elections.
His first podcast guest was Charlie Kirk, and he agreed with him about trans people. He is anti trans. Just because he isn’t advocating for us to be rounded up and put in camps like the Republicans, doesn’t mean he supports trans people.

Further, He dropped the ball on his promises and only signed a small handful of progressive goals. for example, allowing striking union members to collect unemployment benefits. The most common excuse was “oh we can’t necessarily afford that, and employers can’t either.”

Hey. You’re pretty fucking smart. Thank you.
