Calf. Gov. Gavin Newsom was in Texas yesterday for TribFest22, and he didn't old back.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom traveled to Texas on Saturday, Sept. 24, 2022. Newsom has publicly criticized Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott and other governors from conservative states.California Gov. Gavin Newsom called for an overhaul of Democrats' political strategy on Saturday, saying the party is “getting crushed” by Republicans in part because they are too timid, often forced to play defense while Republicans “dominate with illusion.
But he said that mantras that may have worked for the party in the past — like Michele Obama's famous quip “when they go low, we go high,” — simply don't work today because “that's not the moment we're living in right now.” Newsom said that’s why — even though he is running for reelection as governor of California — he has been spending some of the millions of dollars in his campaign account on TV ads in Florida urging people to move to California, newspaper ads in Texas decrying the state’s gun laws, and putting up billboards in seven states urging women to come to California if they need an abortion.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott speaks at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Dallas, Aug. 4, 2022.Of course, the main reason Newsom can do those things is because he faces little pressure at home. Newsom is likely to cruise to a second term as governor of California in November, facing a little-known and underfunded Republican challenger one year after defeating a recall attempt.
