Whatever funny guy. Out of the hundreds and thousands of democrats serving in this country, just a handful are willing to put it on the line for the most important part of this country, its constituents. Gavin Newsom is one of them, certainly not Schumer, Pelosi, the majority of the senate and house democrats, so I welcome anything we can do to disrupt the bullshit being spread by the republicans and their kind.
