Gavin Newsom is such a child that he's willing to make California suck even MORE just so he can own Republicans ... in Texas. Yeah, that'll show 'em. Oh sure, he thinks Republicans doing what Democrats have been doing for DECADES is somehow wrong; we can't help but notice he didn't speak up while his own party was nuking his state and other blue states to give unpopular Democrats even more power.
It's as if Gav knows the game is up, and they're losing.
Ted Cruz fired this zinger across Gav's shiny nose:
Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) ~ If California gerrymanders from its current 43-9 Dem advantage (83%) to a 52-0 Dem advantage (100%), then Texas should go from a 24-14 GOP advantage (63%) to 38-0 (100%).
ABC News (@ABC) ~ California Governor Gavin Newsom said California will move forward with drawing new congressional maps that he said "WILL END THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY" and allow Democrats to take control of the U.S. House of Representatives.

All is fair in love and war.
And politics.
Just sayin'.
Gav tried really hard to clap back at Ted:
Gavin Newsom (@GavinNewsom) ~ [i]Ted Cruz treating his posts like Cancun:
Gets caught, then disappears.
True, Hair Gel ... Ted did make a little mathematical faux pas, there, but Mr. French Laundry who left California for Montana during the Covid pandemic has no standing to criticize Senator Cruz's Cancun vacation.
And PLEASE, the guy who ate at The French Laundry while his entire state was locked down has thoughts ... California, really with this loser? C'mon. We get it, you're pretty blue, but he's a disaster even for a Democrat.
AND, Ted did NOT disappear, much to Hair Gel's dismay ...
Ted ended the convo, and Gav, in one final blow:
Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) ~ Like all charlatans, @GavinNewsom resorts to insults & distractions to hide the truth.
Gavin, 2 questions:
1) Why do the 38% of CA Republicans deserve ZERO representation?
2) If CA goes to 100%, why shouldn’t TX?
Funny how Gav got caught and then disappeared.
