California Democratic gubernatorial candidate Tom Steyer couldn't bring himself to defend the indefensible on Sunday, dodging a simple question about how he would grade Gov. Gavin Newsom's catastrophic two terms in office.
When asked by a reporter to grade Newsom's leadership on an A-to-F scale, Steyer pathetically responded with "I don't know" – a telling admission that even fellow Democrats recognize the Golden State's slide into progressive dystopia under Newsom's watch.
This spineless dodge speaks volumes about the Democrat Party's desperation to distance themselves from Newsom's toxic record. After all, how do you defend a governor who turned California into a playground for the homeless while driving out middle-class families with crushing taxes and regulations?
The Newsom Disaster Democrats Won't Acknowledge
Steyer's refusal to grade Newsom isn't surprising when you look at the facts. Under Newsom's radical leadership, California has become a cautionary tale of progressive governance gone wrong:
• Skyrocketing homelessness in major cities
• Mass exodus of businesses and families to red states
• Rolling blackouts despite sky-high energy costs
• Crime waves that have turned once-beautiful cities into no-go zones
• Schools indoctrinating children with woke ideology instead of teaching basics
But here's what's really telling – if Steyer can't even praise his own party's governor, what does that say about the Democrat brand in California?
"I don't know how to grade him," Steyer stammered, apparently forgetting that voters will be grading all Democrats this November.
This weak-kneed response from Steyer shows that even California Democrats know their policies have been an unmitigated disaster. They just don't have the courage to admit it publicly.
Patriots, this is what happens when the left runs out of excuses. They can't defend their record, so they simply refuse to talk about it. But California voters aren't buying the silence – they're living the consequences of progressive failure every single day.
The question isn't whether Steyer will grade Newsom. The question is whether California voters will finally give Democrats the failing grade they deserve.
