Gavin Newsom Ad: It Is A Five Alarm Fire For Democracy In America, Trump Trying To Rig The Election
California Gov. Gavin Newsom released a video on X touting his opposition to President Donald Trump.
GOV. GAVIN NEWSOM (D-CA): It is a five alarm fire for democracy in the United States of America. Donald Trump, who’s trying to light a torch on democracy, continue to try to rig the election. His agenda is failing. His presidency is failing. He knows the headwinds in a midterm. Now he’s dialing up for seats. He called Greg Abbott, who doesn’t have the courage, doesn’t have the conscience. And he has rolled over and he said, yes, sir. And so we have got to step up. We’ve tried to play by a higher set of standards and rules with our independent redistricting. And we believe in that. We’re talking about emergency measures to respond to what’s happening in Texas. And we will nullify what happens in Texas. We will pick up five seats with the consent of the people. And that’s the difference between the approach we’re taking and the approach they’re taking. There are no rules for Donald Trump. And this is a serious moment in American history. And so we are here to meet this moment head on. We will not be complicit.
