It's worth noting that Gavin Newsom essentially got away with something that pretty much ruined Boris Johnson's government (though didn't ultimately end it; that was for something else). I'll vote for Newsom's reelection this November for policy reasons of course, but that was some BS right there.
The Brits will crucify their politicians for literally anything. They did Ed Miliband dirty just for eating a messy sandwich.
PhillyMagMeh. He's obviously a sleazebag and he almost certainly won't be President, but as far as his job as Governor goes, he's been signing some important legislation trying to remedy some of California's worst problem (while sadly remaining hamstrung by the absurd fiscal constraints we inherited from MUH TAX REVOLT). Now if he could please just sign the farmworkers unionization bill...
Like affordability?
