Ridiculous in the sense that we’re at this point in the first place, but absolutely necessary to inform the American public in the loudest way possible how brazen MAGA has become to steal elections and democracy itself.
No better way to get the public’s attention to this matter than starting a shouting match with trump. Fighting fire with fire.

When we laugh at him, he becomes angry, and more likely to make mistakes, which will weaken him.

More of this, please! Thank you, Gov. Newsom!

We can't just have a discussion about someone on our side doing well without condemning the rest of the party? How do you know that Newsom is the solitary good Democrat? If you think that, you are not paying attention.

Every morning, I wake up in more of a police state, and less of a democracy. And every morning, more of trump's crimes, inadequacies, fuckups and mental illnesses are revealed, ready and available for Democrats to exploit---and that exploitation isn't happening with nearly enough skill, energy and courage from our party's leadership. There's a reason Gavin Newsom is attracting so much favorable support these days: there are so few like him.

All caps.
"...attention to this matter"
Always a dig at others/reinforce derogatory labels
Inflated sense of self worth
Over-hyped coming attractions
Awkward adjectives
Exclamation points!!!!!
Bigger and better than anything before

Newsom's Press Office gets it. Literally laugh-out-loud.

I'm glad GN gets that. And of course, our side is funnier and able to do parody. That takes intelligence. So lets use it!
