Eddie Haskell 60

10. Newsom does have potential

I love that he's a fighter like Trump and it's something Dems need but you're right, his advisors are falling behind. For example, this week he pulled back on his 'Israel is apartheid state' remark which was spot on. I'm like WTF? The base and center are starting to see the crimes Israel commits, and now we have the war with Iran started in large part of Israel's push, and Newsom backs off?!? Not good.
