Arnold Schwarzenegger: Gavin Newsom Presidential Run a ‘No-brainer’
Breitbart ^ | 5.17.23 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Posted on 05/18/2023 9:48:38 AM PDT by conservative98

Former California governor and Hollywood legend Arnold Schwarzenegger called a presidential run by current Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) a “no-brainer” on Tuesday in an interview with the Hollywood Reporter.

Schwarzenegger said:

"I think [Newsom running for president] is a no-brainer. Every governor from a big state wants to take that shot. What do I think about his performance? When you become part of the club, you don’t criticize governors — because you know how tough the job is. It’s impossible to please everybody. Before I ran for governor, I had an 80 percent approval rating. As soon as I announced, I had a 43 percent approval rating. Immediately, half of the people said, “Fuck him! I’m not going to see his movies anymore.” I would run things differently [than Newsom], but I’m a Republican, so of course I would. I don’t criticize him for not doing it my way."

Newsom has been devoting much of his time to visiting conservative states to attack their social policies. He has spent comparatively little time in California, notably leaving the state during deadly blizzards this winter.

Though Newsom told the Biden White House that he is not planning to run for president in 2024, he is seen as preparing the ground for a possible run in the event that Biden changes his mind about running for reelection.

Yes, to quote the guy himself, Ahnuld proved to be a girly-man.

As the old Dumb and Dumber movie poster, (for the Dems) every day is a no-brainer.

Their brain trust led by Joe Biden, Kamala, Karin, AOC, Fetterman, Adam Schiff. Well, you get the idea.

It’s amazing how Republican’s make so many bad choices...They supported an open border globalist like Bush for 8 years, and those in CA voted for and elected this foreign leftist as governor. What a disaster..

Ahnold doesn’t detect the irony in what he said.

It’s not clear at all what Arnold is thinking here, but having Newsom continue with his absurd run is an unabashed good thing, at least for those who would like to see even more chaos in the Democrat party. Run with the scenario for a minute. After a brutal primary season, Newsome ekes out a win over the doddering Brandon, and then has to face Trump.

Trump would eat him alive.

It would be glorious. And hilarious.

Of course the Democrat nomenklatura won’t let this happen.

Unfortunately, there will be plenty of no-brainers who will vote for him, including Arnold.

Celebrity endorsements put the nail in the coffin.

He’s not only blimped up to the size of a rhino, he’s confirmed his status as a RINO.
