“…It all helps to explain why governor Gavin Newsom beat the recall effort, and by a lot, winning support from more than 60% of the electorate. According to exit polls, the most important issue for voters was the Coronavirus. And when asked about the governor’s job on COVID, 65% said his policies were about right or not strict enough. So, Republicans, your thirst for COVID is why you lost. Nobody likes your policies that threaten our safety and our kids. You, you may want COVID you may want to ingest horse dewormer and attend far too many funerals. But we, we don’t. And instead of just saying that, or tweeting that, or fighting about that, California voted that. It is perhaps the first real tangible proof that your criminal COVID-loving death cult ways are not going to work for you at the ballot box next year. In fact, it’s political suicide. And also apparently talk radio suicide because your brilliant little COVID plan is killing your right wing hosts. The majority of us Americans want things like, I don’t know, better infrastructure, good schools, gun reforms, jobs, and the right to vote. You know what else we want? We want to live not die from COVID.”
