One of the reasons that the LA anti-ICE riots got out of control was the feckless nature of the Democratic leadership, including California Gov. Gavin Newsom. Instead of supporting federal law enforcement, his response was to make it about fighting President Donald Trump.
He even threw a tantrum about Trump calling in the National Guard and tried to blame Trump for the riots that he and the other Democratic politicians let get out of hand. He's even suing over that, which is ridiculous, again showing he's more concerned about fighting Trump than stopping the riots.

In the face of all that, you have what has to be one of the funniest takes on Gov. Hair Gel. It's from that font of knowledge. But I jest. But you know, the guy that lasted about ten days, Imagine anyone being this delusional.
This whole fiasco could make Gavin president.

It's hilarious that anyone could think that.
First, when one of your main cities devolves into riots, with cars being set aflame by people waving foreign flags and police and federal agents being attacked, it tends not to be a good look for a presidential campaign.
The moderates who Gavin would need would not look kindly on that.
If anything, it's only drawing a sharper contrast to how deluded Dems are on this, that even in the face of riots, Democrats like Newsom are still siding with illegal aliens against Trump and law enforcement. As polls revealed, the American people are with Trump, and in the words of CNN's data dude Harry Enten, "The American electorate thinks Democrats don't have a clue." This proves they don't. Nobody wants to spread California to the rest of the country.
Newsom seemed to be pleading for Trump to arrest him, doubtless thinking that would help him with the leftist base for his run in 2028. But again, that makes him look ridiculous to the folks in the middle.

Scaramucci's tweet got flamed on X, with people mocking not only Scaramucci but especially Newsom. But Scaramucci doesn't have a record for getting things right, with some comparing him to CNBS host Jim Cramer.

These people have no idea how popular mass deportations are and how unpopular rioting while waving foreign flags is https://t.co/RdXWQZPfJ9

Gavin and Scaramucci are deluded, but I don't think the American public is.
