Gavin Newsom says the DSA is the future of the Democrat Party
"I mean, that's going to be a mainstream Democratic movement. Absolutely, no question in my mind. You can't play in the margins anymore."

California Governor Gavin Newsom was caught on a hidden camera saying that he believes the Democrats' future lies with the DSA, the Democratic Socialists of America. This is the party of Zohran Mamdani, Melat Kiros, Darializa Chevalier, Claire Valdez, AOC, and the other far-leftists. The DSA backs Abdul El-Sayed, James Talarico, and so many others who seek the destruction of American democracy and the installation of a socialist regime.
"I was wondering," Newsom was asked by a young woman, "because I'm a younger voter and a lot of us, you know, we don't want more Kamala Harris. We want you know more, I guess, Democratic socialist policies. Like, where do you see, I guess, the Democratic Party going?"

"So I think the—with the DSA, the energy and the desire and demand for bold change, non-incremental change, is very much going to be the dominant. I mean, that's going to be a mainstream Democratic movement. Absolutely, no question in my mind. You can't play in the margins anymore. The whole the system's broken. It's completely unbalanced, and we can't manage the decline. We have to completely reimagine."
Newsom, who often says what he thinks people want to hear as opposed to offering any actual original perspectives or opinions, is showing that if he does put his hat into the ring for the Democrat Party's 2028 presidential nomination, he will do the bidding of the DSA and the far-left socialists. It's not a big deal to Newsom what the policies are so long as he has power.
Obama has also said that the DSA is the future of the Party by saying that Mamdani is the future. AOC has also been rumored to be considering a presidential run. Whoever takes up the nomination for the Democrats will undoubtedly be in the pocket of the socialist far-left.
