California’s governor is being touted as a successor to the Biden throne. Though he’s often imagined as a beacon of progress, his feckless record shows otherwise.

Newsom regularly shoots down progressive bills. The fact that anyone thinks he’s a progressive just shows how far skewed to the right our political spectrum is; anyone who doesn’t signal dislike for LGBT+ people and/or women is automatically viewed as “progressive”.
The thing he gets most of the “progressive” points for is his gun control support, but he’s also pro-cop and gives cops exemptions from almost all gun control laws, so it’s not really gun control, it’s just disarmament of the workers.
