Run, Gavin, Run

American Greatness  "Even if California can’t be saved yet, Gavin Newsom’s vain march toward the White House may finally torch the progressive lunacy he helped unleash."

That kind of hubris does crazy things to people. Kamala Harris boasted a similar record. She not only won every election; in her first (in 2003), she defeated an incumbent progressive DA in San Francisco … because he was not progressive enough!

California electorate

I was born in California and have a firsthand view of the damage done to the Golden State under sixteen years of Democratic trifecta rule.

"Yet, for all the troubles, I don’t plan on leaving unless:

California joins Canada

The Democratic Party starts building concentration camps

Criminals get elected to every major office in the state

"Also, I have many reasons to hope for my home state. Recent electoral victories are chipping away at California’s woke madness, and even the woke Angelenos and San Franciscans who insisted on voting left are tired of getting left behind in their brazen destruction. They want a change. One of the worst, wokest county district attorneys in the country (LA County District Attorney George Gascon) lost his job last year in a total rout. Republican-turned-common-sense-independent DA Nathan Hochman took his place, and he is cleaning house, even more conservative than the DA who preceded Gascon. San Francisco’s BLM-on-steroids mayor, London Breed, lost to the more centrist (at least by San Francisco standards) Levi-Strauss heir Daniel Lurie, who is trying to restore some semblance of law and order to the city.

"Even former Democratic Sheriff of LA County, Alex Villanueva, moved to the right when his deputies started getting assassinated. He resisted the COVID-19 lockdown orders during his tenure. This year, he reregistered as a Republican, rejecting the party of “paid protests, purple hair, and pronouns.”

"What about the current governor?

"Gavin Newsom, who as mayor of San Francisco appointed George Gascon to replace Kamala Harris as San Francisco District Attorney, is the real train wreck. He’s presided over and accelerated the epic, public collapse of our once Golden State.

The state’s budget has ballooned on his watch, while Californians are fleeing as fast as they can every day. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he locked down businesses, ordered mask mandates across the state, and released prisoners early. He deemed pot shops and the porn shops essential businesses, but he ordered the churches, charities, and legitimate businesses closed. Unreal! He gives food, medical care, and schooling to illegal aliens, while everyday citizens clamor for justice and a decent living, and get neither. He’s the face—hair gel and all—for California’s failure today."  . . .
