Tapper interview with Newsom

[Mick]

Newsom concedes that Democrats have lost ground with men.

Newsom talks about the crisis; poor graduation rates, high suicide rates, etc.

Newsom on Democrats’ struggles with young men: ‘We need to own up to the fact that we ceded that ground’ | Watch

[Genuine Realist]

I believe Newsom lost the election, and maybe denomination, when he signed the legislation creating a Reparations Commission

Quite apart from the general unpopularity, not to say absurdity, of the concept, there is the prosaic fact that California entered the Union in 1850 as a free state, as a part of a famous compromise. Slavery was prohibited under the California Constitution from day one.

Newsom’s action epitomizes the problem of Democratic candidates. They have to kowtow to the progressive wing to have any standing in the party, but that dooms them in a general election.

I am looking forward to the presidency of Vance, who I think can go forward with a sensible revisionist regime, without all the histrionics and narcissism of the current President.

I wouldn't give you two cents for all your fancy rules if, behind them, they didn't have a little bit of plain, ordinary, everyday kindness - yeah, and a little looking out for the other fella, too.
