Liberal Podcaster Torches Gavin Newsom For Urging Democrats to Be More Culturally Normal': What the F**k Are You Talking About?'

"From a tactical perspective, from the prism of purely politics, there's no doubt that the Democratic Party needs to be, dare I say, more culturally normal. He argued his political party should stop spending a disproportionate amount of time on pronouns, identity politics and more time on issues like healthcare, housing, and the economy."

"What you're saying, Gov. Newsom, is breathtakingly dangerous, and you're ceding ground to the narratives that Republicans try to define free people that mind their own business that stand up for everything. You're allowing their bulls**t narratives to define Americans, and it is utterly disgraceful."

"Gavin Newsom, this is so incredibly disappointing. It's so devastating that you cede ground to these bigots, and you allow their bulls**t framework to redefine you. I just think this is political suicide. You don't have to throw one person under the bus."

During a CNN town hall, California Governor Gavin Newsom argued the Democratic Party must become more culturally normal to win elections, suggesting they spend less time on pronouns and identity politics and more on practical issues like healthcare, housing, and the economy. Liberal podcaster Jennifer Welch responded on her I've Had It podcast, calling Newsom's critique breathtakingly dangerous and accusing him of ceding ground to Republican narratives that marginalize progressive values. Welch argued that by accepting Republican frameworks about social issues, Newsom allows their narratives to define Americans and progressive causes. She also criticized Newsom for opposing a billionaire tax, suggesting he may be too corporate-aligned for the Democratic base.
