As a Canadian who grew up in the Trudeau era, GN reeks of someone with the same narcissistic and false persona, except with a possibly deeper malice.

The one positive thing about the horrible and disgusting man beyond words Justin T was that at least every single person in the country, including JT, knew he was literally retarded.

Everyone knew he was only elected because he was good looking, and past that he was just a pure puppet front men for globalist WEF forces.

New scum is the same, except there’s a deeper aura of evil about him, a sort of joker vibe that sexually delights in destruction for its own sake.

Trudeau and GN are the same, and we are all much much worse off for it.

Gavin Newsom does have a joker vibe for sure, I almost made such a reference in the article, but had already criticized Marvel brain lol.

People definitely think Gavin Newsom is much smarter than he is but the thing about him not understanding complex narratives is really deep insight into him as a person, since humans are naturally storytellers and understand things from storytelling. You know Trump, for example, for all I know has never completed a novel in his life, but is a wonderful storyteller and a master of narrative.

My favorite incident of Newsom’s turning bowls of shit into fresh cream was the re-opening of the biggest LA freeway, burned and melted in a dramatic fire after neglecting years of warnings about the heaps of flammable junk swept under the overpass. All the striving Dems, Newsom, Karen Bass, Padilla and Kamala celebrated their competence and smooth executive ability after propping it back up a few days ahead of schedule with never a peep about the cause.

that checks out. Sounds like they could have been using convicts to clean up junk instead of fight fires lol

That would be proactive tho. You gotta have disasters to create opportunity.

The really crazy thing is - in light of recent history I'm not sure any of this would make him bad at being president.

That was a fun read. It took me a while to get around to reading it, but I am glad I did. It also remined me how thoroughly exhausting the 2024 campaign was.

[by having a podcast between us, Alexis and I are only half pulling our weight.]

Slackers!! 😄

Great article, and the comparison to Alcibiades is great, if only because I would actually have loved to meet him in person, and might have considered voting for him if I was sufficiently pissed about something or other.

Lmao yeah I considered kind of doing a whole article making the comparison but figured he is really famous and there is plenty to say about Newsom on his own

I am so glad for you that you are optimistic enough to assume that Alcibiades is famous, out there in the wide internettins fields!! 🤣

One of the weird things about Newsom is that his family seems like a genuinely happy, functional one. Maybe one day one of the kids will write a memoir of how horrible it was, who knows, but that 's not what the pics seem to show today

Well, he's at least sufficiently well documented that we know the name of his Spartan nurse, which is uncommon
