In a wide-ranging interview with NBC News, the California governor slammed the GOP-controlled Congress and the Supreme Court for bowing to Trump.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Thursday said he’s “deeply confident” that California voters this week will approve the state’s Prop 50 ballot measure, which would allow the state to redraw congressional maps on a partisan basis ahead of next year’s midterm elections.

In a wide-ranging interview, the California governor slammed the president’s push for mid-decade redistricting efforts in Republican states across the country, accusing the president of “rigging” next year’s congressional election and warning that Trump “is not screwing around.”

“He’s changing the rules. He’s rigging the game because he knows he’ll lose if all things are equal,” Newsom told Welker. “He did not expect California to fight fire with fire.”

    That “one single issue” being literal genocide, yes. I swear, it’s like I’ve been transported into some satirical work critiquing the two-party system, you’re literally a self-parody. “One single issue,” christsake, the Holocaust was “one single issue too.”

      Found the dumbfuck equating a nation continuing a long-standing agreement with an allied nation that happens to be their most important ally in a specific region of the world to the literal fucking holocaust.

      It appears you know nothing about international politics OR the holocaust. That or you like comparing apples to oranges to make a point because you’re not intelligent enough to do otherwise.

      Either way, you voted in such a manner to ensure actual fascists take power in America. Because you’re dumb as fuck.

        Lol the Zionism is revealed.

        Germany was Italy’s ally in WWII so I guess that makes their participation ok.
