Californians are getting precisely the kind of world
they've voted for. It's ugly, and it literally stinks.
Yes, how to fix it is the question, but I'm not sure the
people have had enough yet. The recall election of Newsom
next month will be an indicator. If he's recalled, then a
new day of hope begins.
This. Sums it up neatly. Popular wisdom says Newsom has large enough money bags to defeat the recall effort quite handily. I personally do not think Californians have had enough, despite everything we have seen over the last few years - with the wildfires, PG&E's planned blackouts, ever burgeoning taxes with jack all to show for it, school boards prioritizing campaigns to rename schools honoring racist historical figures over everything else, general wasteful expenditure & graft etc.
...the people turned on him, and even set fire to his front

That's putting it a tad mildly, given what happened.
July 2009 - Then-mayor Gavin Newsom and wife Jennifer
Siebel Newsom had only just moved into a new home in the
Upper Haight when their front stoop was promptly defecated
upon.[1]
