Claire McCaskill: Redistricting Fight in California Is a ‘Proxy for Gavin Newsom Versus Donald Trump for President’

‘A larger portion of the Republican Party, they are not happy with how things are going’

EXCERPT:

MCCASKILL: “Oh, yes, it is. It’s way too late. Listen, I think that people, you’re right. I think people are — except for the MAGA base, which is about 20 to 25 percent of the country. Unfortunately, a larger portion of the Republican Party, they are not happy with how things are going. They feel uncertain about their own finances. They feel uncertain about what is going on internationally in terms of all of these wars and the fact that he’s now, in some ways declaring war by saying he doesn’t want it to be Defense anymore, he wants it to be the Department of War. So, people are unsettled. And I think these redistricting fights are the proxy. I mean, clearly in California, that is a proxy for Gavin Newsom versus Donald Trump for president.”
