It’s a lifeline for Gavin Newsom: why Trump rivalry paves way for 2028
The Times ^ | Wednesday, June 11, 2025 | Katy Balls and Leighton Woodhouse,

This is about all of us, this is about you,” Gavin Newsom declared this week, his eyes boring into the lens of a camera.

In a televised speech styled like a State of the Union address, the California governor warned that the scenes in Los Angeles, where thousands of military troops took to the streets this week to clamp down on protests against President Trump’s immigration raids, were a taste of things to come.

“Other states are next. Democracy is next. Democracy is under assault before our eyes. This moment we have feared has arrived,” he said.

Newsom’s latest battle against his long-time foe Trump was spurred by the president’s decision to deploy 4,000 National Guard members and 700 marines. He saw it as a heavy-handed stunt that has made the unrest worse, not better. The 57-year-old Democrat responded by suing the US government, threatening to withhold tens of billions in annual federal tax dollars and embarking on a media blitz of print, broadcast and social media — at one point tweeting Trump’s border tsar to “come and get me, tough guy”.

Gavin Newsome would be a blessing for Republicans, because many Democrats who were hurt by the riots would not vote for him.

Oh, Fer Pete’s Sake. Give it up, Gav. You’re toast.

WHY is everything that’s done to RIGHT THIS SHIP seen through the eyes of Socialists as, ‘A Bad Thing’ for America?

Oh, wait! We WANT THEM to keep showing Americans WHO THEY REALLY ARE!

Carry on, Loser! ;)

The only way this POS will see the inside of the White House is if he takes a tour

That has nothing to do with Noisome’s prospects.

He’s cute, and he has buckets of money from the Getty Oil fortune.

The cows on the View are throwing their granny panties at him today too. They were all hot over how “Handsome” he is.

Gross old pigs those cows on the View are:

He'll be popular with his base. But he will have a horrible time trying to convince independent voters in the general election.

Which was why Gavin Newsom went on Charlie Kirk's podcast recently and agreed that it was unfair to have transgender athletes in women's sports.

That strategy may work.

Gavin is going to get squashed like a bug. This is the worst thing that could’ve happened to him. He needs to run as a quasi-moderate but he’s defending illegal criminal immigration.

Talked to someone who is not a conservative today and he hates Gavin. Says he’s phony and is more interested in tweeting and speeches than actually governing his state.

I like to call him Noisome, too. It’s the perfect word for him, but I think many people are unfamiliar with the term.

Gavin is going to get squashed like a bug.

Women have 53% of the vote. They were +8 for Harris. But men voted +12 for Trump.

If Gavin is able to increase his margin with women to +12, it's a whole different game.

He has the good looks. And he's manipulative.

Harris did not have those traits.

Gavin is going to be a formidable candidate even though his track record is clearly showing him that he's an idiot.

Democracy is under threat when Laiken Riley can't jog on her campus without being murdered by alien criminal gangsters.

Democracy is threatened when Kate Steinle can't walk with her dad on the San Francisco waterfront, without being shot by an illegal alien monster.

Kate Steinly. Lakien Riley. Tragic martyrs for their country.
