Billionaire activist Tom Steyer joins race to succeed Newsom as California governor

[DIRTYSECRET]

Tom Steyer, the billionaire climate activist and businessman who unsuccessfully ran for president in 2020, is the latest Democrat to jump into California’s crowded gubernatorial field.

His two core promises — which could appear at odds — are to preserve the state’s status as a hub for business and innovation while also lowering California’s cost of living by making corporations pay “their fair share,” he said in a video message.

How we gonna compete with his money? He is a d-ck. Went over the top on Trump's impeachment. Doesn't mean the voters will be turned off by him.

[rktman]

Even if they leave the state?

Making corporations pay their fair share and they pass it on to the consumer yeah that sounds right huh Moe.

[cgbg]

I saw this guy in the Democrat Presidential debates in 2020.

He was the most disgusting hateful useless mean nasty piece of human waste I have ever encountered.

(I am being nice. The guy is raw evil.)

[Vaduz]

Agree

[broken_clock]

Also agree. I sooo look forward to his endless campaign ads…

These two things are incompatible. Guess which one they will pick?

Newsom is busy redistricting and rigging the presidential election for himself

[Bullish]

Of course that rancid, uber-liberal fool wants power over the people of Calif. No surprise at all. The voters of Calif are dumb enough to elect this cretinous moron too. Steyer is one guy I’d like to see disappear from politics.

Why does the left always find the worst of the worst to run in California?

[Theodore R.]

CA voters must relish in their love of socialism.

[know.your.why]

He is a d-ck

In the UK thats a tasty desert. Since I'm not in the UK right now, its okay to say here that he's a Wanker. Same thing...

[PIF]

Steyer could become the natural leader of the democrat party, leading the during his rise to absolute power?

[beethovenfan]

Another Newsom with more money. Great.

On one hand you have a smiling greasy haired fool and on the other a rich smiling fool.
