Newsom Proves He Learned Nothing From The Recall, Hints He’s Dropping The Hammer On Californians

Governor Gavin Newsom of California may have survived the recall campaign. Still, he appears to have taken no lessons from the process, as he has indicated a desire to rein in the primary reason his job was challenged in the first place. In addition, CBS News reports that Newsom was convinced by his recall victory that voters need tougher COVID-19 lockdowns and limitations. Devout Democrats, he thought, should strengthen the spines and lean toward keeping people safe and healthy.

Newsom was well aware that his harsh actions during the pandemic jeopardized his career, but he has embraced his survival as a mandate to govern. While the state was on lockdown, California routinely ranked among the worst states for COVID hospitalizations, outpacing even the states Democrats chastised for failing to take the virus seriously. Florida and Texas, for instance, had fewer hospitalizations than California combined. While California’s economy continued to sink under his instructions, the state experienced a worse-than-normal period of stagnation. To top it all off, Newsom showed that he wasn’t only a terrible leader who made wrong judgments. He also showed that he wasn’t bothered by obeying his own rules when he appeared at a posh restaurant during his lockdown.

The following are the consequences of enabling tyrants such as Newsom. Despite a determined campaign by Californians to recall him, his recall survival convinced him that people demand increased lockdowns and control over their life. Any re-election of hard-left authoritarians would undoubtedly elicit a similar reaction. What this means for Californians in the future is uncertain, but based on experience, we can anticipate that it will exacerbate existing anguish. While Newsom may have learned nothing, his following action may teach us all something.

Gavin is stirring up a hornets nest, but he has done his best to disarm citizens in California.

In Newsom, Californians are getting what they are begging for. Therefore what they deserve. And, what Californians deserve is for Newsom to put it onto them twice as hard and turn California into another North Korea.

I think the recall process is fundamentally flawed. It wasn't really a recall election. It was actually another general election. Voters knew going into it they had 2 choices: Newsom, a Democrat, or Elders, a Republican. The voters simply didn't want a Republican, so they voted for the democrat candidate and that meant Newsom.

The Dems may well have preferred an alternate Dem to Newsom, but they clearly wanted a Dem, and the only real Dem option was Newsom, so the voted Newsom.

The real test will be the next primary when the dems get to say if they really prefer Newsom when the alternative is another Dem. Having said that, since the pluralist voting system is what's in use, Newsom is favored to win as incumbents usually are. Better is Approval voting.

Of course this is all out the window if the Deep Swamp gets involved, as it always is.

if the Deep Swamp gets involved

Trump tried to clean up the Deep State, but they got him in the end.

Pence could have refused to read the Electoral College votes from contested states, but he did not do so.

There is precedence. The election of 1800 when Jefferson and Burr were opponents. ;)

Good analysis, thanks.

Newsom Proves He Learned Nothing From The Recall

Au contraire, he learned that what he already suspected was indeed true: that with Californians being what they are, and election fraud being what it is, there was little chance of his being defeated. And he learned that he can safely and confidently trample over citizens' rights with even more flagrant impunity.
