They are the ones who are very concerned with California as a case study of poor governance.
And whatever you think about parties at the national level, generally speaking, it's the purple states.
sometimes the red states where things are more functional, where there's more housing, where when you get out of the airport to catch an Uber, there's not some convoluted system where you have to wait 20 minutes in line to go to some shuttle like an LAX or whatever else, right?
Where there's population growth.
I mean, you want to talk about like hard data, population data in the US and jobs data is pretty good.
And those are states where people have moved to.
And the abundance lives are...
critical of democratic governance and critical of of um culture war issues on policing and trans rights and and you have what i call the resistance lib faction they're the ones who say they really fit up with the democratic establishment but are still
often very partisan and often very cheerleading for the blue team.
They're the ones who thought that Joe Biden was railroaded out of the 2024 race, for example.
They're really Gavin Newsom's constituency.
Why is Gavin Newsom going out of his way to support and endorse the Bidens when Biden, even among Democrats, is not all that popular anymore?
Everyone else wants to move on.
Well, it's because it signals the resistance libs that, like, I have your back.
I'm a fighter.
The reason why we didn't win in 2024 is because the media was unfair to Biden and or because Kamala Harris was a black woman.
So pick a white guy who will fight for you and tweet in all caps and you'll win.
Absolutely.
And he had some...
some proof of concept i mean the redistricting thing was a genuinely smart tactical move democrats are going to wind up losing seats but like without california they probably lose even more and so he did skate where the puck was going there instead of the party's like usual risk version that i've critiqued before um but at the same time the triangulating spirit of like let's pick kamala harris because she's like the least unacceptable candidate
