Let's be very clear here since the worthless scribblers of corpo media won't. The old photos, videos, and documents resurfacing doesn't "suggest" a close friendship. It showcases it - plain and clear.
Oh, this is definitely part of his 2028 campaign to win over Trump voters. "Something changed, this isn't the same guy you voted for...."
Meanwhile, nothing's changed. This is how Trump always was. If anything has changed, it's that Republicans have let him surround himself with people who will never say "no" to him. Even Republicans in Congress know how batshit crazy his policies are, yet they vote for them anyway.
Newsom will say anything to get elected, though. I hope someone primaries his ass good ...
“Something changed” is an off ramp for those who are in too deep to back out without a mental crisis caused by accepting reality. More then they deserve, but it’s a way out while saving face.
Man fuck people who need an "off ramp" to admit to anyone that they were wrong about something.
Gavin needs to be VERY CAREFUL! If he does ANYTHING to Appeal to his Base he might LOSE Republican Voters that will NEVER vote for him Anyway!

Trump’s name is circled. The circled individuals are the ones involved in the trafficking ring according to the person who originally released the book. These people would be “The List “ Here is the story.

She made me promise, swear to her that I would never date a girl younger than her,” Trump said. “So as she grows older, the field is getting very limited.”

Feel free to do your part and spread this info around so it is never “lost”.
Those descriptions from the girl about him throwing cash at her and telling her to just get an abortion.
That sums up his personality so perfect. Cold, callous, and completely fucked up.
The court documents, as a whole, are awful. I don’t care if they are old news: if outlets actually gave a flying fuck, they would be spamming these details. All these conspiracy theorists rather deny this stuff & believe in adrenachrome or whatever stupid fantasy they need to sleep.
There’s no way she’s making any of that up either. I hope more come forward.
But it is the same Trump. It was always the narcissist, racist, pedophile Trump.
These were the weakest punches he could throw. Call him a paedo. Call him a criminal. Call him a rapist. Bring receipts.
Why are the Dems such bitches?
Gavin wants to run in 2028, and he’ll be courting former MAGA voters.
Typical Dem strategy, to play to the center and court the disaffected right. And it’s a losing one. Voters see right through it.
Newsom is already a neolib bitch. This language isn't hard for him.
They always play nice with vile people, and frankly, I don't know what the answer to that is. You would think there would be enough of a case to be made to speak loudly and firmly, but instead we get this weakness from Newsom, while the media praises it as strength.
The answer is some politicians don't. Talk about them. Don't comment too much on noise. 97% of politics is distraction.
I do comment on too many distractions...
It's easy to get caught up in it. That's why it's been working for decades.
Newsom hates the poor, hates trans people, but loves oligarchs and Israel.
If he becomes the Democratic Nominee, I'm going third party or staying home.
Do not stay home. Never stay home. At least vote independent to make your voice heard. People will absolutely look at the third party votes, and if that percentage is rising it is going to scare the shit out of the primary parties.
I’m sorry, but they haven’t been scared of a 3rd party my whole life. It’s just a convenient thing for the losing party to blame instead of changing.
