If President Dementia finally falters for good and Vice President Cackler is somehow persuaded to allow herself to be eased into a comfortable and lucrative retirement, and if the persistent rumors about a Michelle Obama presidential campaign prove to be just that - rumors - the Commissar of the California Soviet Socialist Republic, Gavin Newsom, is waiting in the wings.
As part of his relentless efforts to destroy California as an economic powerhouse and make it the perfect prototype of the borderless socialist hellhole that the left wants to make out of the entire country, Newsom several months ago signed a law raising the minimum wage of fast food workers in the state from $16 an hour to $20 an hour.
Socialist politicians such as Newsom never tell voters about the downside.
The Post noted that Newsom has just "Signed a law that exempts Panera Bread from a new $20-an-hour minimum wage hike for fast food chains after the billionaire owner of several of the chain's locations donated to his campaign." This is the epitome of socialist rule: the elites make laws that the common folk have to obey, or else, while the elites themselves luxuriate at their sumptuous villas, exempt from all the burdens they have placed upon those who make it possible for them to live in the manner to which they have become accustomed.
What a coincidence! For his part, Flynn insists that "He played no role in crafting the bread exemption," and Newsom shrugged it off, dismissing the sweetheart deal for his well-heeled donor as just "Part of the sausage-making" in politics.
Yeah, and who's enjoying the sausage that gets made? Gavin Newsom and his cronies.
Newsom scratched Flynn's back, and Flynn scratched Newsom's.
