How many times has someone declared that we have a strategy to combat him? People have been defeating him for a decade

He is only thinking about presidency in 2028.

You mean directly confronting Trump on his bullshit works better than a podcast where you chum around with white supremacists and Christian nationalist?? Who’d have thunk it??

“Landing on a strategy” is not a strategy…
I guess Gavin’s advisors have seen the polling and given up on “kiss up to extremists in order to look centrist”
All Gavin needs to do is go to his roots. To “be” a leader with a vision. Authorizing gay marriage in SF was a bold and downright decent move. Do more of that.

I love that we have an educated Democrats in office that actually understand the constitution, the separation of powers under that constitution, and know how to articulate in a meaningful way! When you listen to Trump and most of his cabinet, it’s like listening to a bunch of morons that never made it past fifth grade!

He’s doing the right thing but I don’t think it’s anything novel. People are mad at Dems in Congress for not doing anything but they can’t do anything. Governors can actually do things, which is why we’re seeing Newsom, Pritzker, the Maine governor, etc make moves. If Dems in Congress had a majority, they would be trying to do these things too.

Democrats should stop talking like they’re writing college essays all the time and start using plain, simple language.
Anti-intellectualism is widespread and many people think you’re acting like you’re better than them if you come off like that.
They need to stop being so careful with their langjage because people like Trump who spew whatever comes out of their mouth without a filter sound more authentic to people.
It’s pretty telling that Democrats won college educated people but lost non-college educated people
54% of Americans can’t read beyond a 6th grade level. Meet the voters they are.

Having some balls. Unapologetically calling Republicans out on their extremist and lies.
Most importantly: control the flow of the conversation. Don’t just let them lead you around. Talk about the stuff they don’t and force them to have to respond.

Maybe he wins his court challenge for control of the national guard and can park them. The LAPD seems to be at the center of conflict far more than any of the federal actors.

Let Gavin do his thing now and we can disagree later. I hope he keeps the gas on.

The only Dems that seem to be doing anything is Newsom, AOC and Crockett. I don’t know what the rest are doing.

The strategy is to speak up and resist. Don’t try to appease in advance or moderate the rhetoric.

Call it all out. Trump is small, weak and hypocritical. Just speak the truth

Showing a spine?
Just saying “no?”
What is this miracle strategy?

California’s GDP is the 3rd or 4th highest in the world, trump realistically can’t do shit about them lol

Actual resistance, defiance, occupation, and sabotage. Who’d have guessed that would work?!

Is it “do anything?” DNC, pay attention

He should issue a video, social media post, or interview announcing every day that “California is under federal occupation Day X.”

The people of the United States deserve credit. Newsom did his best, we need to keep showing up.

Yeah it’s called not being a spineless twerp. Sweet tap-dancing Jesus that’s really all this is – he’s not being a spineless twerp.

By having some fucking balls unlike Schumer and Jeffries?

He’s confidently taking a stand instead of making wishy washy comments intended to offend the fewest people but most especially conservatives.

According to Reddit, Newsom is the worst. A neoliberal sellout with no principles, a slick, unprincipled politician served up by the Democratic Party to save America, not filet mignon but warmed over meatloaf.
I’m from CA, I’ve always thought Newsom was an effective governor. I don’t agree with everything he does, but I don’t expect purity from my politicians, I expect results. More importantly, the Republicans are afraid of him, and have been gunning for him for years – they tried to have him recalled over COVID – and failed.
What I am seeing right now from Newsom (as well as AOC and Sanders) is leadership, someone who is willing to stand up to Trump. If he runs for President, he’ll have my support.

Democrats on here demanding purity. I am giving my full throated support to any candidate that is not MAGA. YOU SHOULD TRY IT.

By just doing the most obvious thing possible that nearly everyone wants? Great strategy I guess.

I’ve been saying to my wife since like 2 years ago that newsom is the only guy out there right now who can go toe to toe with orange cheeto. He’s def gonna go for pres. he’s got this left leaning machismo that the democrats have had none of since Barack. And newsom has the weird disgusting “I used to bang your son’s ex fiancée” thing going on which mark my words will come up if newsom does end up running,
