Why does Trump need to feel more powerful than an 8 year-old boy? Because he has dementia. Why can't we trust Trump's posts about the Iran War? Because he has dementia. Why can't we trust Republicans to tell the truth about Epstein? Because they are sexist and guilty -- and taking advantage of Orange Puppet Trump because he has dementia.
I am voting for Becerra. He's the most qualified. I wish he had a bit more personality, but none of them do. Sigh. The Republican candidates are terrifying! We have to align around the most electable Democrat.
I just read a bit of a Substack on another platform, where the person talked about how everyone was coming for him during the CNN debate. Not only is that because he’s the one to beat, but look how calm he remained. That’s how he will deal with any crisis as they come.
Do the Robert Hubbell strategy, wait to cast your vote for whichever Dem is ahead in the poll on election day. Otherwise, you are potentially throwing your vote to the Republican.
I watched the debates that were televised and Becerra just didn’t hit the mark for me. He talked around too many questions without answering and I didn’t feel like he aligned with the progressive values I want represented. He was trying to skate too close to the center. I also saw that someone who worked with him in the administration said he wasn’t exactly highly revered for actually getting things done.
I’m leaning towards Katie Porter or (hate to say it) Tom Steyer. The billionaire of it all is definitely not ideal and I originally wrote him off as an absolutely not. But he did divest from the shady private prison shit years ago and I can’t help but think of Pritzker managing to prove there are exceptions to the rule of rich people being asshats. And though Porter had some attitude issues, they were outbursts that I know if she were a man wouldn’t have been nearly the shadow on his campaign that it is for her. She also kept working with that person for years afterwards and owned up to being an unmitigated jerk, in the wrong, and apologized. Plus, I liked Steyer’s and Porter’s answers and stances a lot better than the rest of them. I just don’t know man.
This jungle primary is such bullshit and we really need to switch to ranked-choice.
All good points, but who is the most electable and has the path to victory? I like a lot of things about Porter, but she is not going to win IMO. She's further behind now than before Swalwell dropped; she picked up nothing from that, which says a lot about where folks will vote. Tom, well...he's no JP and I fear he is promising some good things he will be unable to deliver. Becerra has the experience and the calm demeanor under pressure. And yeah this stupid BS jungle needs to go.
“Note seven: Who should Sam vote for in the California guv race? He’s leaning Becerra at the moment.”
OMG! So Newsome hands Dems a win on a plate & in typical Dem fashion they are going to blow it .And I’d love to know who the heck the Lame stream media is polling in CA…I mean every one in MAGAland Ca. I guess.Can’t the Dem leadership get the candidates who don’t have a snowballs chance in hell of winning to quit? Or are these candidates just grifting money from the public? Get your shit together CA. you like the protections you got now from the Dems? Say Adios to them if the Nazi Sheriff wins. Geeze…..
Sam don't vote for the Rich Dude who made his money off prisons.

Hey E.C., I think Dementia is his campaign manager, from an Eastern bloc country. LOL
Sam, please vote for Becerra. “No Kings, No Billionaires”! Thank you for your attention to this matter 😁

The "interview" was priceless. Thank you for the laughs!

Nothing can boost one's mood quite like children telling it how it is. Thanks for that!

I couldn't get the video of the children talking about Trump to open. Any suggestions?
View it on Bluesky
Sam should definitely vote for Beccera!
Nothing has convinced me more of concerns of Republicans or at least the Trump family than Melania’s performance.
Those kids were great.
