I'm not a big fan of Newsom, but this is a good parody of Trump's messaging. I chuckled.

Is it though? He recently sent a letter that was basically like this but without all caps.

I sympathize - how do you communicate with a toddler tyrant? - but I do not think this is a parody. Therefore I find it cringey. I much prefer what the NATO chef texted Rump a while back, who liked it so much that he published it.

It is obvious fucking parody, including last sentence 🙄

ATTENTION FASCIST DICTATOR: ONLY 5 WARNINGS REMAIN BEFORE WE POLITELY REQUEST THAT YOU STOP

This isn't a literal fight, he's talking about getting 5 more US House of Reps in California to counteract Texas doing that. He's saying stop or I'll neutralize it.

He needs to just do it anyways. TACO

[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 7 points 8 months ago

Why is he even threatening this? Why doesn’t he just do it?

Also have a vote go leave the union and leave.

[-] wetbeardhairs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 42 points 8 months ago

He has escalated from sternly worded letters to all caps tweets. Man means business.

As much as I generally dislike Newsom, this is obviously a parody, and it's backed by the actual action he's been publicly detailing. This is one case of establishment Democrats credibly threatening to actually do something.

Just do it. He needs to stop being a bitch. He's already fucked over Californians so badly.

I hate this tactical nuclear response, but if we're not going to win anyway, might as well go scorched earth.

Redistricting isn't even the nuclear option. Abuse executive power to remove all republicans from the voting records. Bunch of traitorous scrum, anyway.

[-] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

Where did this guy learn how to enact change, the UN?

[-] blitzen@lemmy.ca 41 points 8 months ago

This tweet is just trolling. The mechanism to redistrict is already in motion. My only fear is that we (California) might only be trying to offset the five seats. What I want to see is IF the red states drop redistricting nothing happens, but if they go ahead with it then California takes all nine. Because fuck them.
