Yes, Newsom is positioning himself for the 2024 Dem primaries by leading the RAT charge against Trump with the Covid Panic Shutdowns designed to hurt and ruin business and individuals as to impact Trump popularity and try to leverage a federal bail out for California.

Sound extreme? It is. But exactly what is happening with the whole cadre of Marxist Democrat governors and their shutdowns underscored by the complicit media.

I think Gavin Newsom figures that Joe Biden will win the election and that he will bail out California nyway.

That is a really risky strategy for Newsom and he Dems. We all live in a bubble of sorts. Most of us follow news through sites we trust which are in general conservative. We preach to the choir mostly. But so do liberals, especially Commiefornia liberals.

It is one thing for a poll in July to show Trump losing in a landslide, it is another thing for a seasoned politician of any ilk to believe those polls and risk long term or permanent damage to a States economy. Newsom’s policies are going to kill the State by November. It cannot survive another four months in lockdown. There will be no more stimulus money unless Trump believes the polls also. Even if Biden were to win, there is no more money! He can raise taxes but with 33% or more of the country unemployed who the hell is he planning to tax?

If that’s Newsom’s objective, it seems to me that Newsom has the Claymor facing the wrong way.
