A WELL-PRODUCED AND WELL-PRESENTED STEAMING PILE OF SHIT IS STILL, IN THE END, A STEAMING PILE OF SHIT

California Gov. Gavin Newsom makes redistricting announcement in Los Angeles


 

I caught most of the Gavin Newsom show today.  Ran just a tad over an hour.  Could have been done in three minutes, six if you removed the part presented by Senator Alex Padilla en espanol.

It was pretty simple.  "Donald Trump is evil.  Anybody who likes Donald Trump is evil.  Anybody who voted for Donald Trump is evil.  Donald Trump wants to destroy the country.  ANYTHING we can do to interfere with Donald Trump is morally and legally justified."

That's about it.

Interestingly enough, according to Politico, Gavin Newsom's in-your-face congressional seat grab is NOT polling at all well in CA, which is not exactly a pro-Trump state.  In fact it is running right now 60% AGAINST and that is without any hard info or maps or anything.  IMHO the opposition is likely to get worse, not better, as specifics become available.  A lot of people don't find the argument that it is morally justifiable to cheat in opposition to things that we don't like that are, in fact, NOT cheating, to be carrying the day.  CALLING it cheating doesn't make it cheating.  People seem to realize that in significant numbers.

Gavin wants to put a spike thru Trump's chest in November of next year.  He thinks this is the way to do it, and to make him the next President of the United States in the process.  I suspect he is believing too much of his own bullshit.  We will find out in less than two weeks.  The time limits on his sleaze move are really right and it might not be doable, even assuming the courts don't invalidate it.

I will try to keep you in the loop.
