No, it’s neither Trump nor Biden, but rather the venerable Gavin Newsom, the deceitful Governor of California. “White privilege,” anyone? (Yes, the Governor of N.Y., Andrew Cuomo, came in a close second.) In any case, Newsom must resign or be removed from office, for when you openly flaunt your own rules, you are not fit to hold public office. Bonus material: Beyond the “bad optics” of this sordid episode, here is a powerful critique of the substance of Newsom’s misguided lockdown order via Dylan Shetler’s excellent Onlookers blog.
Update (11/21): It turns out that Newsom is not the only petite tyrant flaunting his own lame lockdown orders. Hat tip: Tyler Cowen.
