California Governor Gavin Newsom slammed his own party in a recent TV interview. He said the Democratic brand is “toxic” right now. Newsom blamed his party for being too judgmental and pushing cancel culture. This came during a chat on Bill Maher’s show where the crowd cheered Maher’s tough talk for Democrats.
A new CNN poll shows only 29% of Americans view Democrats favorably. That’s the lowest ever recorded. Newsom admitted his party’s messaging isn’t working. He said Democrats need to stop lecturing people and start making sense.
Republicans are crushing Democrats right now. Newsom even started a podcast to talk with conservative leaders. He wants to find common ground. But critics say this is just a stunt to make himself look better. A Republican strategist said Newsom is trying to rebrand the Democrats as more moderate.
Democrats are fighting among themselves. California Congressman Sam Liccardo ripped Newsom’s comments. He compared Newsom to a murderer begging for mercy. Other liberals attacked Newsom for not supporting far-left ideas.
Bill Maher has been warning Democrats for years. He says they’re too focused on woke politics. Regular folks care about jobs and safety, not pronouns. A NewsNation panel agreed the party is out of touch. They said Democrats care more about elites than working people.
Working-class voters feel abandoned. Former Ohio senator Nina Turner said Democrats don’t show up for regular Americans. She mentioned East Palestine, where a train crash poisoned the town. Democrats ignored those victims because they voted for Trump.
Conservatives are laughing at the chaos. Dave Rubin praised Maher for telling hard truths. He said Democrats keep losing because they’ve gone too far left. Rubin’s fans cheered as he mocked Chris Hayes and MSNBC’s failing ratings.
The Democratic Party looks weak and divided. Voters want leaders who fix problems, not scold them. Until Democrats drop the woke act and focus on real issues, they’ll keep losing. Meanwhile, Republicans are ready to step in and clean up the mess.
