CA Gov. Bemoans Pandemic Bungling, Blames Others w/ John Phillips & Dr. Kelly Victory – Ask Dr. Drew

In Gov. Gavin Newsom's new interview with Chuck Todd, the CA Governor bemoans the anger he faced after his much-derided COVID-19 lockdown strategy, now saying “I think we would’ve done everything differently" in hindsight and “I think there’s a lot of humility" – before backtracking and passing the blame to others: "we didn’t know what we didn’t know. And it was hardly I; it was we, collectively." ••「 CALL IN & LINKS: https://drdrew.com/9132023 」•• John Phillips and Dr. Kelly Victory discuss the new wave of history-rewriting and blame-passing from officials who previously championed lockdowns and mandates but are suddenly changing their tune as election season approaches.
