ON A RECENT episode of “Politickin’”—Gavin Newsom’s podcast in which he tries to convince listeners that he is their totally normal podcast bro bestie—the Democratic governor of California muses about how his state will react to Donald Trump’s inauguration. “He’s got all the power in the world, but we’re not some small isolated state and we’re not going to be navel-gazing either,” says Mr Newsom. “We’re going to be firm and we’re going to be aggressive.” To this end, he has called a special session of the state legislature to convene on December 2nd in order to “safeguard California values”. One of the governor’s co-hosts, a former NFL running-back, Marshawn Lynch, wonders aloud whether the governor would like to “slap the shit out of” Mr Trump.
