The recent chaos in Los Angeles, marked by anti-ICE riots, underscores the ineffectiveness of Democratic leadership, particularly California Governor Gavin Newsom.
Rather than standing in solidarity with federal law enforcement, Newsom chose to pivot the narrative towards a battle against President Donald Trump. His reaction to the President's decision to deploy the National Guard was to throw a public fit, attempting to shift the blame for the unrest onto Trump.
Newsom's decision to pursue legal action over this matter further highlights his preoccupation with opposing Trump rather than addressing the riots.
According to RedState, this situation has led to some rather amusing commentary on Governor Newsom, humorously dubbed "Gov. Hair Gel." The notion that this debacle could somehow propel Newsom to the presidency is laughable.
When a major city descends into chaos, with vehicles set ablaze by individuals brandishing foreign flags and law enforcement officers under attack, it hardly serves as a strong foundation for a presidential bid. Moderates, whose support Newsom would require, are unlikely to view such events favorably.
The stark contrast between the Democratic response and public sentiment is evident. Even amidst the turmoil, Democrats like Newsom continue to align themselves with illegal immigrants, opposing Trump and law enforcement.
Polls indicate that the American populace sides with Trump, and as CNN's Harry Enten noted, "The American electorate thinks Democrats don't have a clue." This sentiment suggests that the public is not eager to see California's policies replicated nationwide.
Newsom's apparent desire for Trump to arrest him seems like a misguided attempt to curry favor with the leftist base for a potential 2028 presidential run. However, this strategy only serves to alienate moderate voters.
n Meanwhile, Anthony Scaramucci's tweet, suggesting Newsom's presidential prospects, was met with widespread ridicule on social media platform X. Users not only mocked Scaramucci but also Newsom, drawing unfavorable comparisons to CNBC host Jim Cramer.
Critics on social media were quick to highlight the disconnect between Newsom and Scaramucci's views and the broader American public. One user quipped, "These people have no idea how popular mass deportations are and how unpopular rioting while waving foreign flags is."
Another pointed out Scaramucci's poor track record, referencing his incorrect prediction about Trump's withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race.
The delusion of Newsom and Scaramucci stands in stark contrast to the American public's perspective. While they may be out of touch, the electorate remains grounded in reality, favoring policies that prioritize law and order over chaos and division.
