Aside from questions about his personal character, I think the key to understanding GavinNewsom's governorship is to look at the quiet foot-traffic election that's going on between his state and other states, freddoso writes.
So it should seem obvious what this guy is trying to do. Joe Biden is so massively unpopular the Democrats are preparing to drop him like a hot rock. So somebody needs to step up, and it probably is not going to be Kamala Harris, because she's even more unpopular than Biden.
Those restrictions that Newsom couldn't be bothered to follow were so severe that as of June, California was still about 100,000 jobs short of where it was in February 2020. Other states have already recovered — that includes not only a dozen Red states such as Utah, Idaho, and Texas but also Colorado and Nevada, which have both been under complete Democratic control since 2018. So what's California's excuse for being such a laggard? You sure can't blame the weather.
I think it's also important to offer some detail about exactly what is so insidious about California's high taxes. It's not just that the top marginal rate is over 12%, which is ridiculous and harmful to businesses. But the really nasty part of it all is that any single person making more than an adjusted $60,000 pays a higher marginal rate at 9.3% than millionaires pay in most other states.
