LOL dudes. I'm not a Newsom fan but democrats have done jack crap. And we all saw how dumb you can be to sway the middle of the political spectrum.
Just off the top of my head, the most well known dems are Newsom, AOC, Bernie, Kamala and Buttigieg. Throw Booker and Walz in there for fun. Which of them would be the betting favorite to win the dem nomination for 2028 right now? Because the most attention seeking, low-IQ-persuading, "throw crap against the wall and see what sticks" bad person seems to win presidential elections pretty well no matter what their background is.
