    The USA does not need a progressive rn. It needs someone who can stop the fascists. Newsom has the best chances of doing that.

      This sort of dipshittery is exactly why the democratic party keeps trotting out center-right nobodies that fail to energize their base, and why actual progressives like Mamdani are doing so well despite widespread attempts by the left AND right to pretend he’s not.

      To be as polite as possible on the matter? Shut the fuck up, and take your lies elsewhere.
