I think the light at the end will be seen by the majority once this comes to vote. Gov will turn out to be the hero, not the reaper.
There is a narrative that the former president was responsible for the 429,000 deaths attributed to COVID. If that your position, than you must take the position that Newsom is responsible for the 39,000 deaths attributed to COVID in California. Perhaps even at a greater level of culpability than the ex-president since the federal government ceded much of the management of COVID to the states (which is why California restrictions and policies were much different than Florida).
Politicians are ridiculously unlikely to admit they were wrong or in the case of COVID, both wrong and relatively powerless. They would much rather double down on a poor decision than change directions. That is why you still see emphasis on washing hands and dis-infecting surfaces when the overwhelming evidence shows that COVID is spread by airborne transmission, not contact with surfaces or even spread by droplets. Their repeated attempts to implement rules and restrictions that obviously will have no effect along with they themselves violating those same rules and restrictions just adds to the distrust being accumulated regarding COVID health guidelines. It's a real world example of the Boy who Cried Wolf.
