Look, the open secret in California is that no one likes Gavin Newsom, not even Democrats. I don't know why this guy thinks he can win president, can we just talk about him for a second? He obviously has strengths. He's a good looking guy. He's very charming. I think he has sharp political instincts, but he's only had to win elections in deeply blue cities and states. San Francisco, California is a place where to win, you just need to get a bunch of interest groups and unions on your side. Doesn't mean you have to convince anybody of anything. And Gavin Newsom, in addition to that, hasn't actually been effective as governor. He came in seven years ago and he said my top issues are gonna be homelessness and housing, which are still the biggest issues in the state. Seven years later, the amount of homeless people on the street has increased in California. We haven't built nearly enough housing, according to his own plan. He only recently signed a package of reforms that are truly gonna be effective. In the last seven years? People in this country want results. They want cheaper housing, they want less inflation, they want a more affordable life. And Gavin Newsom hasn't shown that he can deliver for that in California. Why would the people of America, especially in red states and purple states, vote for a guy like him? Especially when you have a guy like JD Vance on the other side, who's an equally savvy and good talker.
