not that am a big fan of that guy but hey. a win is a win
I wildly support this act, but I still see it for what it is - a naked attempt to regain good will from potential voters on the left who shrivelled and recoiled weeks ago when he said he wouldn’t support a billionaire tax, as well as vetoing many very popular bills like abortion and gender care extraditions ban, lowering retirement pension age for firefighters, ice officer hiring ban, etc
Dude, you had your chance to appeal to future generations that you need to win the presidency. Now it just smells like the same old slimy politics.
I’ll take good things from bad politicians. Hell, if Trump started pushing medicare for all, I’d be on board even though I loathe the guy. Good decisions for the wrong reasons are still good decisions.
Yep, I never argued it was bad to have good things from imperfect politicians. I did, however, say it’s not enough for me to want him as my preferred candidate for President.
Yeah, wasn’t disagreeing with you
Now kith
Trying to distract people from his shameful handling of the billionaire’s tax.
He’s still just a spineless servant of the rich.
This is a nothing burger.
He let a trump supporting member of the nerd reich take over and silence CNN. WTF could he possibly do to make up for that?
Giving him credit for doing the right thing is not the same as forgiving him for his past transgressions.
Given the fact that CA is getting even less back from the feds, I just don’t see why the state would shell out more money for death penalty cases.
We know that death penalty cases cost more than life in prison, and we have no evidence that the death penalty is a crime deterrent.
If you’re simply being a Vulcan about this, the death penalty is pretty illogical. At best it scratches an itch for vengeance. But I can’t pay for goods and services with vengeance.
Not to mention that it’s incompatible with morality
Agreed. It’s basically chimpanzee-level morality.
That said, I’m often shocked at how many people falsely assume that the death penalty deters crime and saves money.
You realize some people have less moral scruples than chimpanzees? Someone literally flung shit on the walls of the capitol on j6.
California still has the death sentence? I thought it was one of the more civilised states.
Dupe
