Is it possible that California could elect a worse governor than Gavin Newsom next year?  Newsom is term-limited and running for president.

The field to replace him in Sacramento expanded this week with the news that Democratic megadonor Tom Steyer is entering the race from the far left. In his announcement video, the billionaire promises to make “corporations pay their fair share,” and curb the “monopolistic power of utilities.”

But we learned from Steyer’s abortive run for president in 2020, the issue that really makes him tick is climate change hysteria.

He promises that if elected he will “give Congress 100 days to pass a Green New Deal.”

The former hedge fund manager is certainly willing to spend his loot to spread that message. During the 2016 election, Speyer spent tens of millions of dollars dooming about climate change.

In 2013, Rolling Stone dubbed him “Daddy Greenbucks” and quoted him saying of climate “deniers,” “The goal here is not to win. The goal is to destroy these people [climate change skeptics].” What a humanitarian!

Should Steyer spend his way into the governor’s mansion he could turn the Golden State into the Blackout State.
