Gov. Gavin Newsom said he was working behind the scenes to block a proposed tax on billionaires’ wealth and was committed to defeating the measure if it reached the ballot.

    Do you think you’ll win people

    Do you think you deserve to be won over? Is that something you feel you’re entitled to? Why do we have to win people over instead of simply asking them to employ critical thinking to make the best realistic decisions? Because they’re dumb and need to be coddled?

    Did the non-voters that voted for Trump also vote for Kamala?

    Not voting and inadvertently helping the worst possible candidate is not the same as not voting and inadvertently helping the not worst possible candidate. You’re simply saying “I could care less whether we’re in a bad situation or a really, really bad situation”, which is objectively childish and stupid.

    Maybe the Dems could even run on something that’s good for us poors

    Spoken like someone who pays absolutely no attention to anything of substance. I recommend you devote some of your very precious time into reviewing the voting history of both parties. You will quickly see a pattern of Dems consistently voting for bills that help middle/lower class Americans and Republicans almost never doing so. If you had actually paid attention during Biden’s presidency, you would know this was also the case during his term. A wave of legislation meant to help average Americans. Again, utilize your time actually looking this stuff up instead of posting garbage comments on social media.

    You need to understand that the Dems you mentioned as ideal candidates may simply not be able to win. People constantly complain about Bernie being shafted, but the bottom line is he lost the popular vote in the primaries. He wasn’t as popular in reality as he was online.

    It sounds like you “swallowed your pride” and voted Kamala. Great. You don’t deserve an award. That was basic common sense. I guess just be glad you have that when so many others do not.
