          No, because Democrat dickwads like Newsom veto it when they can and the legislators don’t have the intestinal fortitude to override the veto despite passing with a veto-proof majority.

      In primaries, yes. In the presidential election, no. That’s how we get DeSantis.

        DeSantis is done. We (the progressives) don’t have that option any more (as opposed to full on dictator Trump as our alternative option to Biden) Disney has effectively buried DeSantis.

        Don’t get me wrong. DeSantis would have been far more effective as a dictator that Trump ever will be. DeSantis was supposed to be more subtle and therefore more effective than Trump for the fascists. He picked a fight with Disney, and has removed that aspect of his political currency. I’m particularly glad that DeSantis did this, as I still feel that he would be much more destructive to the US democracy than Trump has ever imagined in his most feverish of delusional fantasies.
