Gov. Gavin Newsom delivered a mostly upbeat message at an economic summit
in Sacramento on Wednesday, especially when he was talking about
California’s “resilient” economy.

Despite what many headlines say about California’s supposed decline, “the
good news is we’re still the fifth-largest economy in the world,” he told
several hundred people at the event held annually by California Forward, a
nonprofit that focuses on state policy. (Coincidentally, we have a story
that looks into what really happens when companies move their headquarters
out of state.)

But when Dee Dee Myers, director of the governor’s office of business and
economic development, who was interviewing Newsom on stage, asked him to
talk about the remaining two years of his administration, he sounded
somber and called it an existential question.

“I don’t want to get partisan or political,” Newsom said, adding that what
happens in the next couple of years will depend on what happens “in the
next few weeks.” He was talking, of course, about the presidential
election in November.

He referenced the recent news that a former aide of Donald Trump said the
former president did not want to give federal aid to California after the
deadly 2018 wildfires until he was told how many people in the state voted
for him. Newsom mentioned that the state sued the Trump administration
more than 100 times over a variety of issues.

Newsom then said voters’ choice in November will be between “a posture of
optimism, support, daylight” — referring to his longtime political
colleague, Vice President Kamala Harris — and what he called the
“challenging darkness” that is Trump.

Republicans, however, said Newsom’s record on the economy “is a failure —
not something to brag about.”

Also during his about 20 minutes on stage, the governor touted his
administration’s efforts to streamline workforce development and create
more jobs in the state’s many regions by bringing together several state
agencies and making sure the educational system is involved.

Newsom: “We want to reinvigorate rural parts of the state, not just the
coastal. We can’t take parts of the state for granted.”

Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden
fiasco, President Trump.

President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed
dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.
