Newsome is such a fabulous human being it would be a shame to replace him with a black white supremacist

it interesting in California Newsom's got 61.9 percent of the Vote

To qualify a recall of the Governor for the ballot, proponents need a minimum of 1,495,709 valid petition signatures. This is equal to 12 percent of the votes cast for the office of Governor in 2018, which is the last time the office was on the ballot.

WOW talk about abuse of power and defranching voters

a side note Elder was Steven Millers mentor. what a Peach yet Trump won't endorse him or give him any of that money he's been grifting from his Cult..

However he is the newest darling of the right . whom most had no idea who he was until they were told they should

Did you just make this up? The "right" has been aware of Elder for a long time. He is not the newest "darling". And he's way smarter and more aware of the lies, deceptions, and agendas of the left than you.

I wasn't even referring to the spelling...there is apparently a process in place in California for recall of a governor....suddenly leftist and the party of impeachment has determined the process or laws may be "unconstitutional" and/or "defranching" and/or "abuse of power"...and in all likelihood ...extremely racist.....and in desperate need of reform. we've seen this before....

We saw it in every Republican state after trump lost

And who ever claimed it was unconstitutional. The same thing happened when Arnold got elected It’s clearly a crazy process and even crazier in liberal state ..
To have such a low bar to reverse or remove someone ,voted into office with the majority of Votes that’s not taking away voters power at the ballot box ..


Not much different then our 50 50 senate

if you add up the population of states and assign half to each of their two senators, “the Democratic half of the Senate represents 41,549,808 million more people than the Republican half.”

Outside your bubble no one ever heard of him or cared till now unless maybe you lived in California

He is a entertainer who pours the honey of lies and conspiracy and outrage into his audiences ears , who like yourself . Who are convinced what he is exposing are the lies and deceptions and agendas you have all created in your heads … Communism socialism Marxism and liberalism are out to destroy Americanism

Your a cash cow nothing more nothing less even Trump understands the business model of the rights outrage machine ..and is cleaning house like a traveling tent preacher

I live in an awfully large bubble. Most in my large bubble knew about Elder, just as we knew about your bubble's favorite "darlings". Your bubble, of course, is smaller. Probably why you didn't know about him.

He is a entertainer who pours the honey of lies and conspiracy and outrage into his audiences ears , who like yourself . Who are convinced what he is exposing are the lies and deceptions and agendas you have all created in your heads … Communism socialism Marxism and liberalism are out to destroy Americanism

He is many things, including entrepreneur, businessman, commentator, writer, political activist, among others. He can be entertaining when he speaks, although his intent is more serious than mere entertainment. He, like Thomas Sowell, is data driven. He doesn't merely make stuff up. Facts and data are what moved him to so-called libertarian conservatism.

As for what's in my head, Progressivism was founded on the notion that traditional Americanism was outdated. That the Constitution was not only outdated, but an actual impediment to good government. And as for communism, socialism, and Marxism, they most certainly are destructive of founding American principles. And I am concerned with the misuse of language in general and of words specifically. And I think about and enjoy golf. And many, many other things.

The "liberalism", to which you refer, is a different linguistic animal. The word, as is commonly used in current political discourse, is a victim of sloppy, situational usage. Actual classical liberalism is "a political and social philosophy that promotes individual rights, civil liberties, democracy, and free enterprise." Current political so-called liberalism is "the holding of political views that are socially progressive and promote social welfare." It is the political creation of those like the founders of Progressivism which determines what rights are and to whom they belong. For them, there is no unalienable right.

I'm a cash cow alright, but not for Trump. Lots of my cash goes into the unlimited, bankrupt, government spending. I know, I know, both parties do it. Thanks to the Progressive breach of constitutional limitations.

So the right put this guy up in a blue state loaded with immigrants and promotes eliminating the minimum wage? Looking like he isn’t like to win so in true Trump a*ss kissing fashion he is already threatening lawsuits over voter fraud.

And the gaslighting starts with the same playbook as the leader of the Republicans
Before there are any results from the recall, Elder’s campaign is promoting a petition “demanding a special session of the California legislature to investigate and ameliorate the twisted results of this 2021 Recall Election of Governor Gavin Newsom."

Calling an election rigged before it even happens is the biggest possible “tell” that you yourself are trying to game the system. I wonder how many examples we need before we learn that.

Sort of like calling someone a Putin Puppet before the results are in. Or an impeachment or two before they're over. Not sure how many examples of your calls including many mistaken regurgitations of reports that Trump lied or said Nazis were very fine people, or that Trump gave China our medical equipment that we badly needed, and many more we need before we learn the biggest possible tell about trusting you.

You don't need a new book to tell you that Trump tried to overturn an election and the Constitution by violence.

Or that House/Senate Republicans refused to impeach/convict him for his violent attempt.

Or that Trump is the front-runner for the GOP 2024 presidential nomination.
At this point, the news is not what Trump did in January 2021.

The news is the ever-growing number of Republicans willing to excuse, justify, exonerate, and repeat what Trump did in January 2021.
I know it's hard to keep being shocked.

But it did really actually happen that as a sitting president Donald Trump tried to overturn the US Constitution by violence.

And that a big chunk of the Congress and the country shrugged off the attempt as no big deal.
Obama said in 2016: "democracy's on the ballot." That's tragically going to be true again in 2022 and very possibly 2024.
So the real question moving forward is:

Will there be ANY Republican candidate who accepts the results of their election?

What is this voter fraud Trump, Elder and others on the right speak of? Oh wait no evidence of it to date, unless of course your on the right and you need to say hey we won regardless of the rigged election results. This is their strategy moving forward, granted I see it actually blowing up in their face, but in their wacky world they think they can keep people from voting if they say it’s rigged. The irony is I think that message is impacting more of Republican voters than the desired target.

I think seeking to undermine the election process with no evidence of fraud is one of the worst things you could do in this country.
