CNN ^ | July 4, 2022 | by Dean Obeidallah

Posted on 07/04/2022 6:36:29 AM PDT by artichokegrower

California's Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom marked the July Fourth holiday by unveiling a campaign ad set to air on Fox News in which he speaks about freedom, amid images of skyrocketing fireworks and the Statue of Liberty, with strains of "America the Beautiful" softly strumming on the guitar.

And as the visuals turn to picturesque vistas of California beaches and vineyards


No homeless camps? No pictures of $7 a gallon gas? Nothing about regional power outages? How about free health care and food stamps for illegals? How about statewide COVID lockdowns?

The state income tax is a huge difference. If I’m not mistaken many more people are going to Florida than California right now.
Gavin is trying to stop the bleeding.

Just to spice things up a little, DeSantis ought to run ads in LA and SFO, showing looters, homeless camps, $7/gallon gas, highest poverty rate in the USA, etc.

Everybody at CNN must be either drunk or high, 24/7.

Is this the ‘new and less biased’ CNN the new guy was supposed to bring about?

You forgot to mention admin-caused statewide wildfires — ‘cause he panders to treehuggers who demand that (unlike other admins in previous 50 years) no forest clean up be allowed.
Also, mandating mailin balloting on all elections, ensuring continued commie trash control.

Twosome Newsome is a real winner. Take him away, please!!!

Hard to tell how many illegals are moving into California, so the numbers might be skewed.

How much of Newsom's speech was in English, and did he offer a spanish version for his target audience?

Most importantly, has his ad campaign moved the needle, or is this just Newsom doing a toobin in front of the camera while he keeps his pants up?

How about free health care and food stamps for illegals?

They see that as a plus.

Gavin Newsom is gearing up for a presidential run. Interesting that he views his likely opponent as Ron DeSantis.

Could be an interesting race and a test if America wants to be California or Florida.

He’s trying to bolster his national name recognition for a potential presidential run—on the CA taxpayers’ dime.

Well that certainly is an opinion.

188k people left California last year.....I can attest that many are now in my great state of Florida.

And that’s NOT an opinion...it’s a fact.

the progressive Newsom is very different from the far-right DeSantis on policy.

Nope, no bias there, CNN. How about "the radical leftist Newsom is very different from the conservative DeSantis"?
