What?? This guy has the ability to ruin everything he touches

[@jacekpaszkowski2000]

@@MJMilano7 Are every politicians great? No. At least he has ideas, He's very pro welfare, helping poor people. I rather somebody with ideas than somebody who tried to overturn the Presidential Election. 99% of the people who testified before the January 6 committee were Republicans who worked for Trump or in the administration. Everybody mango Mussolini trump hired he would say is "so smart and the best," only later to go out and say "they're overrated," like he did with General Mad Dog Mattis, or Rex Tillerson, saying he's "dumb as a rock." Well before they were "smart," but a little time later he would always disparage them. Mussolini trump called US Service Members & Veterans "suckers & losers." A few days ago a story published by the Atlantic described how trump said to General Milley about a wounded Veteran "why did you bring him here, nobody wants to see that, don't ever bring people like that here ever again." Many other Military officials also heard trump say this, because it was confirmed. The dude said he's worth$10 billion, he has a private jumbo plane, said in 2016 "I'm rich, I don't need anybody's money" for his campaign, only to beg nonstop for donations. He uses those donations to pay is wife's stylost $260,000, then another $155k he had her paid for giving a couple minute speech & for picking out table arrangements for a small dinner party/function. His New York business was exposed as a fraud, he would increase the values of his properties to get favorable loans, but would decrease those values and say they're dumps when it came to tax season. He was paying $512k property tax on his Mar-a-Lardo property in Florida which is 0.98% of the value. It was appraised between $18-26 million. If it was worth over a billion like he claims he would've been paying over $10 million a year. The Palm Beach Daily printed a story about how trump appealed a property assessment to pay a lower property tax, but now he cries it's worth over a billion. The dude paid more in tax to China than he did to the US. I remember reading how he got a $73 million refund. Like i said I rather have somebody discussing policy then crying on stage about everything they rigged against him. I'm tired of writing because i know you will still vote for a dummy who will ruin this country more than he did. Mussolini trump was laughed at, at the UN General Assembly. Everything I wrote here can be corroborated via Google query search.

Incredible. This guy has been governor for years and his policies have directly resulted in homelessness skyrocketing and CA becoming less affordable than its ever been. Wake up.

[@kevdaag2523]

The growth in the problem is caused by rising costs and by fentanyl, and not caused by the Governor. He is appropriately trying to tackle the issue. I have yet to see any California politician take effective action on the issue of homelessness (30 years and counting), so I wish him luck but I am not going my breath.

[@middleguy1776]

@@kevdaag2523 he started this homeless problem when he was the mayor in SF. And he's only made it worse by allowing it and decriminalizing it. Also not to mention the rise in retail crime to the point they've got organized rings because of the decriminalization. Oh and the highest taxes, gas prices and housing too. He's in charge he gets the blame.

[@russ_6214]

@@kevdaag2523 It’s incredible how blind you can be. You think fentanyl isn’t a problem in other states? Why is housing and rents so much more expensive in California, which directly contributes to homelessness? Why do you think housing costs are so much higher in California than in any other state? Why do you think development takes on average 3 times longer to be approved? Why are energy bills so much higher than in most other states? Why do you think development fees are several times higher in California than in virtually any other states? Why are manufacturers and other companies leaving in droves? How can you seriously not understand that the rising costs in California are a direct result of failed government policy? That the lack of new construction supply of apartments and housing despite stratospheric prices of rents and houses are a direct result of failed government policy at the state and municipal level? It’s incredible. You guys supporting Newsom do realize that things aren’t anywhere near as bad in most other states?

In this exclusive, I can see that Newsom's grown as a leader from the controversy of the Covid years. He didn't sound liberal nor did he stress a liberal agenda, something he's done many times before. This interview has shown me that he's not into the politics of his office but rather he wants to address the concerns of the future. It's not often that we see US politicians accept the responsibility of their failures and move forward with an honest strategy. Also want to add that he didn't clearly state support for the wga strike when 1st asked, but he's interested in fairness for both sides. I can agree with that.

[@danajones2049]

[@gazpacho1234]

Newsom was not considered a progressive but a 'new centrist' in San Francisco when he first ran for mayor or when he was mayor, he came up with the entrenched party machine that produced mediocre political-machine fast-tracked liberals like Diane Feinstein and Willie Brown, the difference from those 2 examples being that Newsom believed more in finding practical solutions that actually work and was not an ideologue like 'new Democrat' Feinstein or 'professional-politician' Brown. Nancy Pelosi on the other hand learned greatly from their mistakes and their successes, and Newsom learned from all 3 and importantly governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's huge wisdom-growth and shedding of ideology during his 2nd term. Newsom has changed a lot since he first ran for mayor (I voted against him for mayor as he was a strong part of the 'corporate-rent wing' of the Democratic party and experimentally played it too safe, but he grew way beyond that by the end of his first term as Governor. Most people think San Francisco has always been THE hotbed of California progressive liberalism but it never really has been throughout it's history*. One way to look at it roughly is that when it comes to dealing with 'big money' versus 'residents of the city', San Francisco from 1849-1932 and 1978-2020 was 25%-35% 'progressive' (in the classic sense of being foremost for 'democratic capitalism'), and 35%-5% 'conservative' (in the classic sense of being foremost for 'money capitalism'). Only since 2020 and between 1933-1977 during the pro-Labor pro-middle-class politics 'New Deal Democrats' era of San Francisco (which ended when mayor Moscone was assassinated in 1978 and replaced by progressives'-reviled next-in-line 'New Democrat'** Diane Feinstein) did the 'progressive' (in the classic sense of being foremost for 'democratic capitalism') represent more than 35% of the city's population. A California 'progressive' between 1933-1977 was more truly liberal ('democratic capitalist') than what most California 'progressives' now are, the word does not mean the same anymore as it did back then, anymore than California 'conservative' means the same to self-proclaimed California 'conservatives' now as it did back in 1933-1977. *Los Angeles has always been the real hotbed of progressive liberalism throughout California history. San Francisco is where a lot of progressive firsts occurred though (e.g. first town in the US to treat Jews as equal to whites; the first major city population to embrace Labor-unions; the first school district in the country to integrate public schools; the first city in the US to prosecute rape in marriage as a crime, etc) but also some of the most backward (e.g. San Francisco came dangerously close to joining the Confederacy; the genocide/massive-lands-theft of indigenous-peoples in California was planned in the city; the national trend discriminating against Chinese and Asians culminating in the deportation of Japanese-Americans to far-away camps during WW2 was born out of homegrown city white-supremacy; as far as blacks were concerned it was considered a 'white residents only' city until WW2 (non-white visitors welcome to visit); the city was at the forefront of post-WW2 non-Dixie surreptitious-redlining and kinder-gentler unconscious-racism and gentrification in the US; the police were notoriously corrupt and reputation for brutality by the big-city California standards of the 1950s-1970s and the corrupt minority within allowed to slow fade away quietly). **many people think the term 'New Democrat' (later copied by Tony Blair's 'New Labour' in the UK) was derived by the Bill Clinton political machine in 1988 but it actually was a term bandied about since 1973, to symbolize 'realism and compromise' in politics, but it was always more easy-path compromise than hard-fought realism - people quickly forget (as they often do) how much progressives loathed Bill Clinton and that for decades he was lauded by the pro-oligarch-conservatives like leader Newt Gingrich (proto-Trump) etc, until suddenly Bill and Hillary Clinton were 'the enemy' by 2010.
