The Conservatives are using the L.A. fires to begin the attempt to make a Republican Governor of California. (Rant)
Gavin Newsom will be termed out in 2026. The Conservatives kept mentioning him as a possible replacement for Joe Biden in the 2024 election. I suspect they are expecting him to run in 2028 and are already gearing up a smear campaign to knock him out of the primaries.
Right now they are blaming the fires on Democrat leadership. My guess is that the Conservatives, who now basically run the GOP will find a conservative candidate to run for Governor in 2026. This candidate will no doubt be endorsed by Trump.
Once Trump officially takes office, I expect Comer and Jordan to launch the first investigation of the year against Newsom and the Mayor of L.A (a Black female Democrat). It will be a show trial that doesn’t solve anything. The main purpose is to make the people of California think the Democrats are idiots. If it works is a different story.
What I find funny is how hypocritical the conservatives are. During the election they hated the “Hollywood elites”. Now they sympathize with them for losing the their million dollar homes. Building reservoirs and new fire hydrants will be the “low egg and gas prices” of the 2026 California election. Rant over.
