Yeah, but oddly “33%Some Vibes - but there is something else big in addition to this.” is the most popular, but I have not seen any valid reasons why posters do not like Newsom, other than a gut feeling he is smarmy or similar. Which is valid of course. So, Other than two posters who somehow think Newsoms record of LBGT+ laws is bad- which is demonstrably false- I have not seen anything that would qualify as “something else big”. Of course, there are 132 posts up until this one, so I may have missed something.

After Criticism, Newsom Urges Clearer Rules for Trans Girls in Sports | KQED
Newsom signed a bill into law Oct. 13 that requires the creation of a state commission to study inclusion in youth sports, including of trans youth.

Ignore the Podcast with Kirk, where Newsom was trolling Kirk. Think about what Newsom has actually done for trans persons- which is sign a bunch of laws protecting their rights. Basing some Politicians viewpoints on an issue based upon one Podcast, instead of what he has actually done is silly.
Not Brown, not Newsom. The Voters. It was a CA Proposition and passed with a solid majority. Ignoring that would be illegal and unwise.
Wealth taxes are foolish- no nation has them (IIRC a couple tried than got rid of them). But yeah, lets bring back the old Estate tax before the GOP meddled with it. The base Estate tax exception was a mere $675,000 back in 2001- plus extra for a personal residence, etc.
Right.
