Democrat California Governor Gavin Newsom made a painful admission about the Fox News shows dominating politics and crushing the Democrats.
Newsom made the comments during an interview with Texas Tribune when he mentioned the "ruthless" Fox News hosts.
“These guys are ruthless on the other side. Ruthless on the other side,” Newsom said.
“That prime-time lineup by Fox, they’re ruthless," he continued. "They dominate the most important thing in American politics today, and that’s the narrative. Facts become secondary to narrative. They dominate with illusion and we are getting crushed. We are on the defense over and over again."

He called on Democrats to not only respond to their Republican opponents but to also go on the offensive.
“Where are we? Where are we organizing, bottom up, a compelling alternative narrative? Where are we going on the offense every single day? They’re winning right now," he added.
"They want to bring us back to the pre-1960s," Newsom continued. "We have to meet this moment head on, and damn it, the Democratic Party has to assert itself much more aggressively than we have."
During the interview, Newsom also strongly denied he plans to make a run at the White House in 2024.
“No, not happening," he said. “I cannot say it enough. I never trust politicians, so I get why you keep asking.”
Time will tell when it comes to whether or not Newsom runs in 2024.
