Adam, congratulations on a wonderful piece and thank you I appreciate it.

Yes I think the time and place for this couldn't be better. She's fresh off the Kennedy campaign, somewhat but not directly associated with Trump yet she has liberal backing from the the tech world. One thing you neglected to mention, likely out of kindness Gavin Newsom isn't very well liked among his constituents.

Happy Holidays keep up the great work!

Thank you so much! This is really kind. And while I do agree some people have strong opinions against Gavin Newsom, he’s still wildly popular among others! Happy Holidays to you as well! 🙌🏼

Great piece, very lucid and detailed. She would be a great choice, but she would probably be panned by the NPR affiliates in the state, although it's unclear how much influence they have in these matters. The broadcast news might give her a better look; would Dion Lim and company like her? Anyhow, really good description of this topic here. 👏👏👏

Thank you Brent! Love having conversations like this!! 🙌🏼 Traditional broadcast + new alternative media is going to be the move to start, until you begin moving the needle in a way that they can’t ignore! Like Steve Martin says, “Be so good they can’t ignore you” 👀

I’d like to see Nicole Shanahan run as a Republican. The great thing about Trump‘s win this time, I don’t think it would have been possible without the support from RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard and Nicole Shanahan. There’s a realignment of the Republican Party going on with people like Tulsi, Nicole, and RFK Jr. And I think that’s a good thing. Let the Democrats have the war mongers, the Cheneys, the never Trumpers.
