The recall vote came and went.
Gavin prevailed. I kind of figured that that would happen.
Polling had consistently shown that most of the voters were ready to keep Gavin, even though he had put the state through some of the worst policy destructions imagineable.
This state is the first in the worst metrics, including homelessness, cost of housing, cost of living, etc.
Then again, I also kind of expected that many of the voters would go alone with King Gavin, regardless.
Here's a picture of one of his supporters:

This video contains an "interview" with your average California voter, when I was collecting signatures to recall the foolish governor:
The guy is so bought into the false rhetoric and fake news which is endemic in our corporate media.
He pretty much defended Gavin Newsom.
Notice also that he refused to tell me whether he really had a job or not. He also thought he was really smart, witty even because he kept pointing out that this is the year 2021, even though the recall effort had begun in 2020, and therefore that's why a number of the banners read "Recall Gavin 2020."
He also lectured me at length about wearing a mask. By what authority? For what reason? When I finally pressed him: "Go ahead and call the police," it shut him up.
You can't argue with someone when you are powerless to stop them from doing whatever they are doing.
In the final part of this "interview," I decided to talk over this empty man. He is clearly unable to think, clearly unable to reason. He thinks that he is the smartest guy in the parking lot, and therefore there is no talking to him.
There you have your average California voter. This is what has happened in the state of California. People are decrepit, worn out, with no skills, no capacities beyond depending on the government to take care of them. Notice the high-powered scooter he was using to get around. Does it really seem as if the guy needed that scooter? And why is he smoking? And why is he given into all of these lies about "politician" Gavin, when in reality he has made himself a king?
The average California voter does not think, but has given into the Gavin Newsom cult of the regressive left. I met it face to face in February, 2021–and now here we are in mid-September, and Gavin has bested the recall effort. No surprise, but great disappointment, to be sure.
