Speaking of Republicans, Newsom said, “These guys are crushing us.”
“The Democratic brand is toxic right now. We had a high watermark two weeks ago, and that was a CNN poll at 29 percent favorability. It’s dropped when the NBC poll down to 27 percent. It’s one thing to make noise, but you also have to make sense.”
Newsom’s new podcast has been doing a lot to reach out to Republicans, even having on War Room host Steve Bannon and Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.
“I think with this podcast and having the opportunity to dialog with people I disagree with, it’s an opportunity to try to find common ground and not take cheap shots,” Newsom said. “I think it’s important, Democrats — we tend to be a little bit more judgmental than we should be.”
The governor, widely speculated to have presidential aspirations, also said his party should “own up” to supporting cancel culture.
