Transcript
00:00about redistricting in california it's moving full steam ahead in texas and in response
00:03things are moving along in california republicans have filed a legal challenge in california but
00:09it could very well make it to voters to sign off and if this moves ahead in november at the very
00:15same time the governor has taken it upon himself to transform his social media kind of as part of
00:21this into very specifically spending all of its time mocking donald trump mocking donald trump
00:28by mimicking his social media style i mean you can just see some of the posts of the memes and the
00:34things that they've been that have been put out what is your i'm seeing a lot of democrats applauding
00:40this approach by gavin newsom but is this all about more about his presidential aspirations than
00:45anything else and if it is are you okay with it it's a teaching moment he's nearing and reflecting
00:50what donald trump is doing so to ask the country is this who you want is your leader somebody who
00:56debases us and reduces the dialogue and yes i mean it's silly it's cheeky um but it also is going
01:05on offense and it's something gavin newsom has done in the cases he's brought on immigration
01:09and the redistricting move that he's doing to level the playing field against the crooked way that texas
01:14is trying to fix their maps it's making donald trump react and i think you can either be on your heels
01:20reacting to donald trump as he goes after the most vulnerable or you can put him on his and there's
01:25not many leaders right now i think on our side who are stepping up and going on offense and gavin
01:29newsom is so interesting thanks for coming in i really appreciate your time john
