At least since Hillary adopted her famous fake black southern accent to which she was promptly forgiven for by leftists.
During a speech to a black audience, he pretty much told them that he has a learning disability that makes him as dumb as they are. Now, I don’t hate the man. Never have. And some of the most creative people ever born are dyslexic or ADD. But this was awful and I wish he had not said it. To be fair, before you start deflecting or making excuses, ask yourself what your reply would be if this had been a Trump speech. Pandering at best. Or just plain disrespectful and gross.
Uhm. We didn’t need to create this. We just got hit over the head with some really insulting comments. Gross and pandering. Don’t you agree? Now try this. Warning, it’s the hard part.

The op created racial conflict by how it is worded. I dont believe that was the intention of the poster. Im not sure Newsom is being racist. I have a 960 SAT too. I can’t math. 780 of that was verbal score lol. Saying your a 960 IQ, says Im not holding myself above the rest of you. I have learning difficulties like a lot of people out there.
This is a perfect example of reading too much into it. In my opinion.
Referencing the same poster’s other thread going after the democrats, it was the top line.
Anyways, his actual line.
“I’m not, you know, I’m not trying to impress you. I’m just trying to impress upon you, I’m like you. I’m no better than you,” said Newsom during a discussion with Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens (D). “I’m a 960 SAT guy. And you know, I’m not trying to offend anyone [and] act ‘all there’ if you got 940. But literally a 960 SAT guy.”
He went on to claim that no one “seen me read a speech, because I cannot read a speech,” citing his struggles with dyslexia.
The one defense that was poured in a trough for me.
And as far as what I’d say if it were Trump who said it, has it even been over a week since that thread where people were discussing if it was a problem to associate Black people with apes?
Actually, I wish republicans would quit attacking Gavin Newsom because and I’m being honest if there’s one opponent that even if the Republican poll numbers are down, I think they can beat, is someone from California with Newsom’s record. I don’t understand why they would want to beat him down. They should be propping him up.
I associate Newsom with the dinner at the French Laundry during the Covid lockdown and trying to sweep away the homeless population for the Olympics. Newsom vs Vance would be another terrible election.
Yes, he should have just said that poor people are just as smart as white people because THAT raises them up to our level. Instead, he lowered himself down to their level and when you’re already a lowlife, that’s really insulting. Libness at its best!
The 38-second video was posted Sunday night by the conservative account End Wokeness with the caption: “Gov. Newsom to a black crowd in GA.” That framing — “black crowd” — set the entire narrative. My original piece on this described the audience as “predominantly Black.” That followed the framing circulating at the time. It now appears to have been wrong.
Multiple videos have since surfaced showing a crowd that was diverse — and possibly majority white. Marc Lamont Hill posted footage of the lobby and the audience, sarcastically asking where all the Black Americans were hiding. Conservative commentator Erick Erickson called it “Buttigieg levels of whiteness.” Even Christopher Rufo questioned whether the condescension charge held up if the crowd wasn’t predominantly Black.
“I’m not trying to impress you. I’m just trying to impress upon you I’m like you. I’m no better than you. I’m a 960 SAT guy. And I’m not trying to offend anyone; trying to act all there if you got 940. But literally a 960 SAT guy. You’ve never seen me read a speech because I cannot read a speech. Maybe I’m in the wrong business to be in.”
Newsom is dyslexic and has talked before how he talks off the cuff because of his difficulty readong.
But your all free to let Breibart do your thinking for you.
