    The California governor put Republican Ron DeSantis on blast, mocked Kevin McCarthy and defended Joe Biden during the Fox News interview. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/gavin-newsom-fact-checks-hannity_n_6487d963e4b0756ff85f9889

    • Diet Trump
    Hannity suggested a 2-hr debate with DeSantis, to be moderated by by the Fixed News mouthpiece
    “I’m all in, count on it,” Newsom said.

    “You would do a two-hour debate with Ron DeSantis?” Hannity said.

    “Make it three,” Newsom said. “Do it with one-day notice with no notes, I look forward to that. We could talk about his zest for demonization, we could talk about his assault on free enterprise.”

    He also made a 2024 prediction about DeSantis.

    Donald Trump is going to clean his clock,” he warned.
    • Joe Biden
    “I don’t think Joe Biden is mentally, physically capable of being the POTUS,” Hannity said.

    Newsom pointed out Biden’s wins on a series of issues, including the infrastructure deal and the CHIPS and Science Act.

    “Joe Biden’s created more jobs, six times more jobs, than the previous three Republican presidents combined,” Newsom said.

    Hannity played a supercut of Biden’s verbal gaffes and physical stumbles and asked if Newson thinks he’s “cognitively strong enough” for the job,

    “I don’t think he’s capable, I know he’s capable. I see results. I’ve seen a masterclass in results the last few years,” Newsom said, ticking off the accomplishments,
    then noted the bipartisan deal to raise the debt ceiling that left many conservatives fuming.

    “Look what he just did to McCarthy,” Newsom said. “Kevin got played by Biden​

    I don't know much about Newsom (other than trump jr is now with his ex which is just super odd) but the little I have seen I like, he's quick witted and seems intelligent. The one downside is all the issues Cali seems to have, they have some complex issues that other states have but Cali is always under a microscope with homelessness being at the forefront. Again, this doesnt always equate what a job he`s done but its an easy "gotcha" moment. I hope to see more of Newsom and see how he does, LORD knows we need good candidates and we don't seem to have anyone in the wings and time is not on our side

    Honestly, I think he needs a different hair style. He doesn't look like a serious or imposing character with his hair like that. He might also want to consider a beard.

    The slickback is the fastest way for me to not take someone seriously.

    Newsom is a force to be reckoned with as a campaigner and fundraiser. He will have his day in the national spotlight. The trick will be if he can keep his nose clean enough until 2028.

    Newsome is a sharp and quick on his feet. He’s also not above picking fights and making big symbolic gestures like his 28th Amendment proposal.

    He’s also got problems with issues in Ca and things like having dinner at the French Laundry during CA lockdowns.

    as for good hair,

    he grew up in a wealthy NoCal in a neighborhood w these two bored / spoiled brat, who were 12-14 yrs older. these two and a friend were involved in the
    kidnapping of a school bus of 26 school children and the bus driver.

    they were convicted of kidnapping with bodily harm and given life sentences...

    several years later, Newsom’s father, state Judge William Newsom, was on the 1980 appellate panel that reduced their life sentences to
    give them an opportunity at parole. William Newsom advocated for the kidnappers to be released in 2011, saying no one was seriously injured in the incident.

    more schooling by good hair
    Newsom confronted Hannity on the economic discrepancies between Democrat-led states and Republican-led states, saying that the former make up a stronger portion of the U.S. economy, effectively "subsidizing" the latter. This exchange came after the Fox News host suggested that companies like Tesla were leaving California due to its higher corporate taxes.



    In a report from late 2020 in the wake of the presidential election, the Brookings Institution, a U.S.-based think tank, found that


    Additionally, an April report from MoneyGeek also backed up Newsom's other claim, finding that seven out of the 10 states most dependent on federal assistance were red states: West Virginia, Mississippi, Alaska, Kentucky, Montana, Arizona, and Alabama. Around 52 percent of U.S. states that provided more to the federal government than they received were blue states. Muddying the argument slightly, however, was the fact that the most dependent state, New Mexico, is considered a blue state.

    upon further review,

    good hair has exposed Hannity as merely a parrot of GOP talking points, lacking in substance.
    at the same time he comes across as one who knows his facts/figure, and has a good grasp on economic data​

    hannity " biden's economic policies are so abysmal that 2/3 of Americans are living paycheck-to-paycheck"
    newsom "that's 7% lower than when Trump was president

    Hannity " Trump had generated record lows in unemployment"
    Newsom " under biden, currently, we're ~~ 2% below that"
    newsom " in 2 years, Biden has created more jobs than the last 6 GOP presidents combined"
    Hannity " that's all post-Covid jobs"

    Hannity " under Biden we've experienced record highs in inflation"
    Newsom "we're trending down, from the peak which was caused by the trade war and pandemic
    Hannity "not true"
    Newsom " you use Covid to discredit biden's job creation, but dismiss it as a non-factor for the inflation pressure ???

    I have a part in the same spot, it's tough to change the style outside of shaving your head or growing it really long

    Edit - thought we're talkin bout Hannity
