Newsom’s vow to appoint a Black woman to the Senate looms large amid Feinstein health concerns

As California Gov. Gavin Newsom stepped on stage at the state Democratic Party Convention this weekend, Vilma Dawson applauded with the visible faith of someone who had supported him through multiple elections and a recall campaign.

Dawson does not expect her loyalty to Newsom will be tested in a politically fraught decision that may lie ahead – selecting a successor to fill the seat of Sen. Dianne Feinstein, should the 89-year-old, who has already announced she’s not running for reelection in 2024, resign before the end of her term.

“I’m sure Governor Newsom has a plan to appoint an African American female,” said Dawson. Pausing to consider her words, she continued, “I don’t think the governorship is where he’s going to stop his political career. People have long memories as to whether they can trust someone to support, shall we say, promises that they made.”

1. The ‘B’ in “black” only gets capitalized if you’re a WOKEster.

2. How does Governor Hairdo not realize he’s being rayciss to assume black women are incapable of getting ahead without his assistance?

Yep…. Their pre-frontal cortex is structured differently. They have leas impulse control. Combine that with low IQ and you have big problems living in a civilized society. There’s the rest of the world…. and then them.

Make sure you appoint the person that will vote like a commie automaton. Maybe that purple person over there will vote better. How can he know she’s black or a woman? Is he a biologist?
