Is he stumping for Sultan El-Sayed, or is he stumping for every other Michigan Democrat who is now petrified of what might happen with this nut-job at the top of the Michigan ticket in November?

Stevens is only a moderate if you compare Idi Amin and Pol Pot

Should be illegal for any state official to go to another state and stump (or send money) for a candidate. It isn’t their state and none of their business. I find it the same kind of crap when a US senator/rep from X state goes to Y state to campaign for one of their partners in crime.

For sure we are. I know Gavin going back 25 years when he was first running for Mayor of SF. He was always a strong supporter of Israel until the past year when he - and the others - decided that “genocide” was a litmus test that they could not fail.

So of course he will stump in Michigan, there is no downside for him. If the candidate wins he has chits he can call in when he runs for Prez. If they lose he can tell the DCA folks he tried. It’s a win win except for the Jewish financial backers and most of the hollywood types don’t care or worse are kapos.

Gavin and any other politician who campaigns with anti-semites is dead to me.

If it was up to me, I’d welcome him by rolling out the brown carpet.

This is like in May, 1861 when the first group of Michigan Volunteers arrived and Abraham Lincoln said aloud: “Thank God for Michigan!”

My great great grandfather for whom I was named (my real first and middle names) was among them. They wanted one division and 7 of them were organized and arrived.

Dems can relax now that the charismatic Gavin Newsom will arrive. /S

RE: Gavin used to be a supporter of Israel....

Back when the Bangles’ Walk Like An Egyptian battled Bon Jovi’s Livin’ On A Prayer for number one.
