Gavin Newsom wants to be president of the United States so badly that he would give up his weekly visits to the French Laundry. He longs to put his feet up on the Resolute Desk as Obama did. I hope that never happens
Few things sound worse than “President Gavin Newsom”. Governor Newsom was bad enough.
Almost a decade ago, Newsom claimed that California would have a high-speed rail connecting SoCal with NoCal, but his plans turned into the “No Rail” train to nowhere. It was all a ridiculous pie-in-the-sky dream that only room-temperature climate clowns thought was a “good idea”. Gavin promised that by 2021, the rail line would be carrying paying passengers.
Californians passed a bond initiative in 2008 to build the bullet train. The track was to run from Los Angeles to San Francisco at a projected cost of $33 billion. We expected to complete it by 2020, said Gavin and his pals.
Yeah…
It is now 2026 and… let me check my notes, that is 5 years after 2021. Not only has Gavin not kept his “promise,” in fact not a single foot, not a single inch of rail has been laid. There are concrete pillars in the middle of nowhere, and billions of dollars spent, but not a foot of rail. Not since William Tecumseh Sherman’s March to the Sea, has someone been this successful at train-track derailment.
The project is vastly over-budget, now estimated at 130 billion to complete, but it won’t be used as mass transit. If given the choice, who is going to ride a train for 4 hours to Modesto, then take a spur to San Francisco, or take a 45 min plane ride to SFO? The answer is obvious.
Newsom is a pandering, jazz-handing clown. A greasy-haired climber who will say anything to get elected. He’s term-limited out as Governor of California, so the next step for him, he thinks, is the Presidency. Will he get there? I hope not, but his path to the presidency is oddly like Kamala Harris’ path, away from it, in that both “wrote” books to explain themselves. Harris wrote a book about her disastrous presidential run and her “book tour” was also a disaster. She aptly illustrated why she was a bad choice for the nation’s highest office.
Gavin Newsom “wrote” a book about Gavin. I’m using quotations because, according to Newsom, he can’t read. So how can he write a book?
Newsom is on his “I’m running for president book tour”, and one of his first stops was in Georgia. Gavin sat down with a Black guy and, while looking at the Black guy and occasionally glancing at the audience, Gavin said that he was “like you”.
“I’m a 960 SAT guy, I’m not trying to act ‘all there’… if you got a 940”. He then added:
Give Newsom some credit for being really good at lying. Kamala is just a “bad” liar. She isn’t an adept speaker because she isn’t bright. Newsom is pretty good at extemporaneous blathering but he is still, a liar, and it’s blathering. And, he can’t read.
I’ll take him at his word. He’s “dumb” and can’t read. I think that disqualifies him from being president.
“You’ve never seen me read a speech…because I cannot read, a speech”.That is kind of significant because I want a president who can…read. The moderator was Black and apparently the crowd was “mixed” but it really doesn’t matter. He pandering to the “poors”, the “working class”, and, I think unconsciously at a black audience. He was quickly ridiculed. An SAT of 960 when Newsom was taking the exam would have placed him well below the mean. Below average. And, on his book tour he said that he can’t read a speech and can’t read in general because he’s “dyslexic”. The irony of someone on a book tour claiming they cannot read their own book is pretty hilarious. It’s like a scuba instructor telling students that he “can’t scuba, but let me tell you how it’s done.” Newsom also claimed that he grew up a poor kid (you know, like you and me) eating “mac and cheese” and preparing multiple mac meals alone because his mom was working multiple jobs. Poor Gavin. But in high school, he was voted “most stylish,” and a few short years later, he was standing in front of his winery. His family didn’t “hit the lottery”. He was never a “poor kid”.
