Good, but man did that take a long time. Maybe a little overtime is warranted when we’re sliding toward fascism.

So I’ll take that all as a yes, because for some reason instead of saying “oh, yeah, I guess people could be trying to force him out” you’ve pivoted from “it’s literally impossible” to “bad people tried it and even taking about it is suspicious” and “it probably wouldn’t succeed”.

Which is the whole point. “Progressive” California isn’t even attempting to (let alone likely to succeed at) remove their governor for promoting an alt-right activist and attacking trans people, so “too conservative for California” is a pretty high bar.

What? Do you base your “literally” statements on just gut feelings?

There are multiple ways a governor of California can be removed from office. There was literally already a recall election against this governor, there’s also impeachment, and good old fashion pressure to resign from the public and leadership.

Do you think “force out of office” means passively wait until the next election where you then defeat them at the ballot box?

Oh cool, so in your last term you can just do whatever you want and it’s all good?

He wants to run for president.

That was incredibly stupid.

I mean, your current governor just invited Charlie Kirk on his podcast to bash trans people together, and I haven’t read that he’s going to be forced out of office in disgrace, so…

Do we know he’s going to run as a Democrat? Seems like someone who was a Democrat wouldn’t initiate their podcast with TPUSA and railing against trans people.

Ok.

This is from a month ago.

LOL, that ProudResistor/ProudSocialist guy is still grifting along? On Twitter no less?

On live TV, with Trump standing up there, you think the Speaker of the House is just going to call a snap vote in a chamber they already control and resolve it before the missing members could get back to the chamber? And that such an act would just be accepted as a clever procedural move to avoid the handful of objections in their majority caucus rather than a significant step toward the end of democracy?

Sure, but that’s not relevant at all to this post topic which is about a specific current event and not in any way suggesting storming out of votes.

According to this post, six of the ten are in D+5 districts or better.

They aren’t running votes at the SotU and they can watch his speech in their office perfectly fine, they don’t need to participate in the performance to know what he’s up to.

What the fuck are you talking about, “there are no open statistics”? Of course there are. Do you think we just eyeball the votes? None of this is guesswork and all the numbers are easy to find.

About a third voted for him. I told you that already, but you’re so ignorant to American politics that you took that as a total turnout number. You clearly don’t even have the passing familiarity to ball park the number of voters, so you sure as shit don’t have any concept of what our non voters are like.

They’re not passive Trump supporters or misguided leftists taking a stand. They’re just some combination of ignorant, incurious, and too fucking stressed or lazy to make an effort to cast what is in many states a worthless vote. You’d fit right in with them.

Case in particular is in an incredibly safe district that votes in progressives for other offices, but after winning his initial primary with a plurality he hasn’t had a real challenger despite being a quisling centrist doing performative party-bucking the whole time. Hawaii’s political landscape is just incredibly steeped in backroom politics and an aversion to risk. Case himself was in Congress previously and basically killed his career for a decade by challenging a senator before it was his turn.

One of the big names in state politics just lost to an upstart though, so maybe the cracks are growing.

Ed, middle name Fucking, Case. 😡

The media never should have allowed Ms. Great-Replacement-Theory to cosplay as caring about antisemitism. Every single story should have included a reference to it as soon as her name was mentioned, just like every story about Elon Musk should include his Nazi salute.

But they’re a combination of corrupt and willing to sell out democracy and decency for short term gains. That corruption and fecklessness is critical to all this being possible.
