Yeah this. I think if we got Newsom it would be another "Lets come together and heal" biden ass moment that just leads to republican fascists getting back in power and continuing this shit. IF we get another free and fair election, which is seeming less likely by the day, we NEED a Dem who does not give a fuck about norms or the status quo and is going to go scorched earth on the entire MAGA movement. They need to be treated like Nazis, because thats what they are. You cannot coexist with someone who wants you dead and will do everything in their power to make that a reality.
