Is Gavin Newsom the best governor in California history?

[Meathead]

No, that's the sweet smell of success.

Yes, I'm sure your farts smell good to you.

 

[Harry Dresden]

Hey Harry Dresden - you said something about how all this goodness didn't happen under King Gavin the Great. But wait:

hey synth...even so the ******* states problems keep growing along with it...will you blame gavin for that too or just the good things......all that money and yet the problems remain....the guy aint a good gov synth....he is more concerned about how he looks to the public....

 

[Mashmont]

Isn't that a good thing? Aren't wingnuts always saying that California is too crowded? Takes forever to drive anywhere?

I think you all just are not happy unless you're miserable and have something to complain about.

Thanks to Trump’s great economy, CA should be doing well. Marxism is ruining it. It’s a shame.

Newsom is a moron and he led democrat voters around because they are like cattle with nose rings.​

Other than healthcare rated #7 in the nation, California is rated middle and below in several key categories.

#37 overall, dead last in opportunity. In 2019 California was rated #17th overall, so Newsom has guided California lower in every category.

Thanks Gavin.

He sure has been on a roll. California just passed Japan as the 4th largest economy, and that all happened under him.

I honestly feel bad for you.

Worst troll thread in history.

Pathetic.

It is the #1 economy but it was #1 long before Newsom, under Newsom, it has gotten worse. The reason people amd companies are leaving California because it is so great.

California failures since Newsom took office.

• Financial & Budgetary Issues:
  • Unemployment Fraud: The Employment Development Department (EDD) lost approximately $33 billion to fraudulent claims during the pandemic.
  • Budget Deficits: Despite large surpluses, the state faces a structural deficit of roughly $35 billion due to overspending.
  • State Government Growth: State workforce increased over 20%, with spending jumping over 60%.
• Homelessness and Housing:
  • Homeless Crisis: The number of unhoused residents grew from roughly 151,000 in 2019 to over 181,000, despite billions spent on programs.
  • Housing Costs: Average home prices have increased significantly, rising from roughly $537,000 when Newsom took office in 2019 to nearly $800,000 in 2021.
• Infrastructure and Technology:
  • 911 System Failure: A $450 million investment in a new "Next Generation 911" system was abandoned in 2025 after being found unusable.
  • High-Speed Rail: Originally touted as a model project, it has faced massive delays and cost increases, now estimated at over $135 billion.
  • Tech Failures: The FI$Cal financial system was deemed a failure by CalMattersfor being over-budget and behind schedule.
• Public Safety and Environment:
  • Wildfire Mismanagement: Investigations alleged that the administration overstated the number of acres treated for fuel reduction by nearly 690%.
  • Energy Grid: Shutdowns of natural gas and nuclear plants (e.g., Diablo Canyon) have led to concerns over reliability and higher energy costs.
  • Criminal Justice: Policies allowing early release of inmates have been blamed for affecting public safet
  • Newsom is a big failure, Brown did a better job than Newsom, the man that was almost recalled.

Gavin Newsom has made California 50th out of 50 for opportunity for these reasons.
The low score is driven by high housing costs, a high cost of living, food insecurity, and significant income gaps.

Now Dems want Newsom to translate his failures in to the entire country!

 

[Synthaholic]

They don't call him the Best Governor in America for nothing. He gets things done for the people.
