Gavin Newsom: America Has a ‘Red State Murder Problem’
Breitbart ^ | 06/13/2022 | Joel B Pollack

Posted on 06/13/2022 7:06:03 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

California Governor Gavin Newsom tried to reframe the political narrative on crime Saturday, claiming that America has a “red state murder problem,” rather than a problem of homicide in Democrat-controlled cities across the nation.

Newsom was speaking with Elex Michaelson, host of The Issue Is podcast, on the occasion of the Summit of the Americas in Los Angeles. He claimed the media had inflated the broader significance of the recall of San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin.

I agree that not only will Newsom run for President in 2024, he likely will win. After all, Joe Biden “won.” Newsom is so much “better”—a slick talker, handsome, will say CA has a huge surplus (which it does as we’re overtaxed).

I’m a realist, but as I’ve lived in CA’s one party state for many years, I’m used to Newsom and all associated leftist horrors. Everyone else: brace yourself!

He’s just like Pelosi always putting their shoes on Republicans for obvious reasons....they never take responsibility. It’s either Republicans, Trump, or Putin - never themselves.

Hey Gavin, spend some time here:

And here:

Now, in the Republican states with high murder rates, do you want to have an honest discussion on who is committing most of those crimes?

Gavin Newsom needs to look at where the crime is - it’s in blue cities in red states.

Crime and murder and misery are democrat hellhole tells.

America has a black murder problem and pretending that isn’t the case doesn’t make it go away.

It’s so bad in red states ...that everyone is fleeing to them.

I still feel safer in NYC than I do in much of Tampa and Miami - difference in those cities is that it is easy to drive through and away from the (very dangerous) bad parts.

Crime is not a blue or red state thing - it’s that violent crime is concentrated amongst the minority of a minority ethnic population that votes Democrat.

Sorry Gruesome but it isn’t red staters going around murdering cops. Those blue state murderers are YOUR constituents. Are you doing drugs, Bubba?

America has a serious California problem.

California must be purged from the union.

Those counties who want may apply for readmission

“… “Reproductive health,” which actually seeks/sought to legalize infanticide to expand the killing of infants past the moment of birth up to weeks after, the Globe reported.”

Eh … Is California a red state?

If they go total state murders, California is #1 at 2368. The top ten states break out 60% Dem and 40% Republican.

Not sure how formidable Newsome would be, but he’d be the clear favorite to get the nomination. They’ve got nobody else.

“huge re-election winner in largest state” seals the nomination.
