It's independent state.
So let's talk about what's going on in America, freedom, it's under attack in
your state republican leaders, they're banning books, making it harder to
vote restricting speech in classrooms, even criminalizing women and doctors.
I urge all of you living in Florida to join the fight or join us in California,
but we still believe in freedom, freedom of speech, freedom to choose.
Freedom from hate and the freedom to love.
Don't let them take your freedom.
>> Paid for by Newsom for California Governor 2022.
>> So that was an ad by Gavin Newsom.
Obviously, as you can see in the thing, it's run in Florida targeting
DeSantis targeting the republicans in Florida who have been so
successful in just turning that state into even more of a hellscape.
And he's of course the governor of California.
So now this is his like gubernatorial campaign who's running this,
you can't help but think Francesca,
that he has slightly higher aspirations in mind when he runs that.
But as much as I'm not a big fan of Gavin Newsom, it's not like what he's
saying isn't very accurate about the state of Florida, what do you think?
>> I have so many thoughts.
Number one, please don't move to California Floridians,
just gonna throw that out there, especially the ones who have
the ability to move are gonna be, rich a holes who steal my parking spot.
And or are like, Bernie is actually just kind of too radical.
Like whatever you gold like that I don't want that.
Like I just, we've got like, we already have like Huntington's beach,
what I'm saying?
Like we've got mega spots in this country in this state and I love this state.
So I don't really want you to move here number one all due respect, but for
sure it's a troll move and for sure it's him setting himself
up to go against the santas in an upcoming presidential election.
I mean, honestly like this is, it's the governor's ball here.
Everyone's sort of like looking at the governor's around this country
who's positioning themselves, who's not, obviously a lot of
people like Gavin Newsom on a federal level, on a national level.
Because he's, I don't know, tall, good hair,
weird hair that he slicks back too much and insists on it.
He's so disappointing on so many levels like campaigning on Medicare for
all and then literally do not lifting a finger on Medicare for all in the state.
So I have a lot of critiques of him, but he's also been sort of standing out.
He calls out his party about on gun violence.
He's like, what's going on, what are we doing?
Democrats aren't doing anything.
He calls out his party on abortion rights.
He's not afraid to call out his party.
So I like that and
this kind of shows he's not afraid to call out the other side either.
And so I don't hate his strategy.
I just don't love his politics.
>> Yeah, I think stuff about the calling, he does call democrats.
It's so far in advance of an actual general election,
let alone if you were to be president.
That like I'm, what I'm saying is I'm not buying it years out that he would
actually be a warrior that said, I do like them taking it to the republicans.
I like him running that ad.
It ran on Fox News by the way.
So a little bit of extra salt in the wound and you would say Gavin Newsom, I think
you should for the next couple of years you should continue to do this, run a lot
of these ads and I hope that an actual progressive destroys you in the primary.
That's what I would say that I hope, hey, you've done some okay stuff in California,
but you also know the other stuff you've done.
So you can't really be surprised that like really tuned in progressives are not super
excited about you.
>> Or like give us a reason to vote.
I mean give do something about the oil and
gas industry in California that's run rampant.
Do something about Medicare for all, like put stop just running on these progress,
stop biting off of progressive platforms that you know, are successful and
actually try and get something done.
And then maybe you could build a coalition with where progressives would actually be
in your corner, but not with your record right now.
>> What if he had gotten single pair healthcare across all of California?
Like running on calling people out is okay.
Running on actually having done it better.
That would be my advice to you.
Hey, there's still time, the primary hasn't started Gavin Newsom, there's,
if he were to actually get single payer health care, I would still abandon him for
actual Progressive, but I would prefer him over buddha or Harris or whatever.
