The red states that have pro-life laws and uphold them, like Florida and Texas, were subsequently chastised by Newsom. He added that California is still an abortion-supporting state in the video.
I don't like it.
I dislike DeSantis because of the way he spoke about Fauci "stated Newsom. "You can disagree with people. They are bullies. When I talk like that, my mom used to wash my mouth out with soap. I don’t like what’s happening. Threatening people if they come to California for Reproductive Rights in States like Texas placing bounties, it’s a serious moment in American history. So why I’m doing those ads? It’s because I can’t take it. I gotta sleep at night.”
This declaration follows Newsom's endorsement of Charlie Crist, who is challenging Ron DeSantis for the governorship. He pledged to donate $100,000 to Crist's Florida campaign.
Even though Newsom, a favorite of Democrats, endorsed Crist, polls indicate that DeSantis will win the November governor's election.The governor of California, Gavin Newsom, persisted in defending his criticism of Florida's Ron DeSantis.
