One potential future Democratic presidential candidate hit out at another on Thursday, as Andy Beshear, the governor of Kentucky, criticized Gavin Newsom, the governor of California, for welcoming far-right provocateur Steve Bannon on to his podcast.
“I think that Governor Newsom bringing on different voices is great; we shouldn’t be afraid to talk and to debate just about anyone,” Beshear said at a House Democratic retreat in Virginia. “But Steve Bannon espouses hatred and anger, and even at some points violence, and I don’t think we should give him oxygen on any platform, ever, anywhere.”
