Gavin Newsom's podcast pivot leaves listeners confused and sets Democrats on edge

Confused? Take a look at global politics. The right-wing conservatives / fascists are winning everywhere.

There is not a chance in hell that a progressive candidate will win in the US in at least the next decade or two.

The swing in the presidential contest to Republicans in California was accompanied by a rejection of progressive ballot measures and a near-universal swing against progressive local candidates.
