Good hair trumps that in California...

Yes, he's a democrat. But he has rights.

He’s still hoping a federal bailout will erase the debt he’s created

He's thoroughly enjoying the privileges of his position and has no intention of doing so?

Cuz he's a good Governor who made a kinda dumb personal choice.

That would be kinda dumb personal choices!
He's teflon in California because they are stepford voters.

Yes, examples have consequences. Trump will never resign why should a Governor.

Sorry, not allowed. That's a whatchamacallit, or
whatever it is that Chris is bitching about constantly
Well reasoned.

Roy Moore has the answer - ask him.

No whataboutism - simply, if you want to know why Newsom isn't resigning, ask Roy Moore.
He can give a better answer than most could.
You really need to know your terms and labels a bit better.
Thank you for clarifying its meaning, Jim. As I've observed with Chris and now you, it means...
"attempts to change the subject by referencing some other public figure or issue, except when I do it." Everybody got that? It's really simple.
Now we need to put our heads together and try to get Lance to understand that "cancellation" does not mean refusing to watch games or refusing to buy certain products or criticizing someone.
Because he now you don’t like my reply, it doesn’t mean it’s a deflection
or a whataboutism.
As we’ve noticed in your replies to Chris now me, you will tag on with some big erroneous claim to sway opinions of the gullible here. It’s your joy. So, prattle on.
I actually like your reply, Jim.
Once one recognizes that cravenness and a lack of integrity is more or less endemic among politicians, why would Newsom resign any more than Roy Moore should have dropped out of that senate race? But that's not the point. The point is that a couple of you repeatedly use the asinine term, "whataboutism," and then you proceed to employ it yourselves over and over again. Of course, it's entirely different when you guys do it. Sure, you say, "Well, what about so-and-so," but only some rubes would not understand that saying, "What about so-and-so" does not equate to "whataboutism." Stupid people.
My reply has very little to do with Roy Moore or his antics, it has to do with who supported
him in his quest and why. The Family Values folks of the south, this outgoing POTUS and the likes of WestCoast all get behind unsavory characters like Moore keeping him in the klieglights
of politics.
So, though I would agree with some of your ideas on posting, my post was not a whataboutism. Simply directing the question to an appropriate place, ask Roy Moore why, he'll have the answer.
They were more against the other guy than for Moore. Sort of like the knuckleheads who voted for
Biden.
You can justify all day long but your family values base is shot. You and all R's have no claim
on whether or not Newsom stays in office or not - you don't even get to question his time in office.
Questioning is now forbidden? These are enlightened times...

Really? Aah California, fruits, nuts and flakes. Well lets see how they respond to the maskless
dinner party.
A leader has to set the example. Newsom failed in this instance.
It diminishes his voice on COVID restrictions for his state.
But, it is not an egregious breach of office that requires resignation.
The most important issue facing the USA. It determined the election. He's a larkinian jag-off.
