California governor Gavin Newsom didn’t precisely get a pleasant greeting from Nashvillians.
The politician was in Music Metropolis seemingly simply to fulfill with some Democratic-minded activists that decision themselves the East Nashtivists. He was additionally there to proceed to interact on a nationwide degree as he seemingly preps for the 2028 Democratic Presidential Primaries. A method or one other, Newsom was on the town and stopped by East Nashville Beer Works to talk to a gaggle of activists.
And it seems that he was met with open arms by those that helped convey him to Nashville to talk, as you may see on this put up from “Tennessee Dems” and the “East Nashtivists” social media pages:
“One of many issues Chair Campbell has dedicated herself to is supporting the efforts of county events and grassroots advocacy efforts. We had been honored to convey California Governor Gavin Newsom to the East Nashtivists assembly tonight with that in thoughts. Thanks to the East Nashtivists for his or her advocacy and community-building work – and for welcoming us to be a part of their assembly tonight.”
Every thing appeared to be fairly pleasant there, even within the feedback part.
However one other put up from “Metropolis Forged Nashville” didn’t go over so properly. The social media web page for the “each day native podcast” shared an image of Newsom assembly with Nashvillians contained in the watering gap, and posted this query under it:
“California Governor Gavin Newsom was in Nashville tonight at our beloved East Nashville Beer Works displaying assist for East Nashtivists. For those who had the possibility to ask him one query — what would it not be?”
Boy, oh boy did that open up a can of worms.
1000’s of individuals flooded the feedback, and for those who needed to guess… we’re they pleasant questions or sarcastic ones? For those who guessed sarcastic (or perhaps even “politically motivated”), you’re the massive winner. Whether or not the put up meant to “bait” folks into partaking with it or not, among the questions and different replies that social media customers left within the remark part had been merely hilarious.
Have a look:
“I’d ask him to return to California.”
“Do you keep in mind that time you had been arresting folks on the seaside for respiratory contemporary air?”
“I got here right here to get away from him. Ship him again.”
“Why do you assume folks from California preserve leaving?”
“How did you purchase that 9 million greenback mansion in your wage?”
“Why aren’t you in your personal state fixing your issues that you just and your administration induced?”
“Don’t California my Tennessee!”
“How did you smash California so shortly?”
“The place did the 20 billion {dollars} go for the homeless in California?”
“Need to come see the home I purchased in TN particularly so I might get away from you and your failed insurance policies?”
That’s simply skimming the highest of the brutal remark part, however not shocking in any respect.
Clearly loads of Tennesseans – particularly these in Nashville – relocated to Music Metropolis partly to get away from Gavin Newsom. They let it’s heard that seeing him within the Volunteer State was one thing out of a nightmare…
That being stated, I’m intrigued to listen to extra of this dialog:
