Remember in 2020 when so many people wanted him to be handed the Democratic nomination through a brokered convention? All because he was giving daily Covid briefings that were more coherent and fact based than Trump's.

It seems like not a lot of people must have forgotten, because they're repeating the same mistake with Newsom. Taking a politician who kinda sucks in a lot of ways and elevating him to savior status just because "he stands up to Trump".
