Gavin Newsom is on his way OUT. Since Asians outnumber Blacks almost 3 to 1 in California, I agree that he should pick an Asian but since their data doesn't fit the "victimhood narrative" from the leftist media, more convenient to just ignore Asians.
OK, so why don't you go lobby Newsome and suggest someone? How about Ro Khanna? But I'm not sure you'd go for him because your ideological positions are completely different than his.
I have no idea why Newsom is not considering an asian. Nor, do I care. You have to keep in mind, that, until quite recently only white males were considered and no others were even allowed to apply. Was our history divisive to you? Why are you upset that others are allowed at the table? Besides, worry not as the Senate is still 91% white.

I asked why he is not even considering any Asians and you turn it into some sort of diatribe about how I prefer white senators and don't want others to have a seat at the table and that there are too many whites.
I ask again, how do you justify not even considering an Asian?
P.S. If you are lumping Asians in as "white" then come right out and say it because it sure seems that's the angle you are working which is pretty racist on your part.
For all those folks losing their minds over Newsom supposedly appointing someone to replace Feinstein:
Senator Feinstein says she intends to finish out her term, which ends in 2024. If she chooses not to run for reelection, then there will be a primary of candidates vying to be the nominee. That can be anyone, and it's up for grabs as an open seat.

As far as I know, no U.S. state has had a white male population as low as 3-4%. That's really narrowing things down to a certain subset.
Not sure what you are saying???

I answered that I do not know why Newsom in not considering an Asian candidate. I don't care. Maybe there is something written up on it. Do a search if you care. Also, not sure how stating a simple fact is implying what you prefer or not or that there are too many white senators-- 89 out of 100 are white, yes. Finally, I do not understand your PS. You are making many assumptions and leaps here. Where do I even imply that asians and whites are the same. I wonder why do you or any of these posters care who Newsom appoints?
Anyway, I understand Feinstein has no intention of retiring but I think she should. Too many stories of her not being fit any longer. Cheers.

Please don't fall for the siren song of racial grievance mongering. If he is given the opportunity, Newsom should pick whoever he feels is best for the job. If that happens to be a black woman, or an Asian man, or whoever, then fine. But to openly declare that he will only select some one if they are (1) black and (2) female is nothing but identity politics and pandering. And racist. And it would be just as racist if he said he would only chose an Asian man . . . or, for that matter, a white man.
Stop deflecting. You and the other Leftists are just fine with using skin color and gender as sole means to pick people and exclude White Males.
Then in the same breath you virtue signal and say America has "Systemic Racism". More hypocrisy and dishonesty you guys are known for.
Well white males were just fine with it when they were using skin color and gender as a sole means to pick people. Don't like it when the shoe's on the other foot, do ya?

Apparently, "two wrongs don't make a right" doesn't register in some quarters.
