Victor Davis Hanson: Becerra and Talarico Vanish From the Campaign Trail

Sami Winc: Well, let’s turn to the California governor’s race, and Steve Hilton is closing the gap, which was a huge gap. 

Victor Davis Hanson: It was an internal poll, but it might be correct. 

Sami Winc: Yes. And Xavier Becerra has angered the Latino community because he’s been pushing the lie that his own parents were immigrants, and his father, we’ve all found out, was actually born in Sacramento. And yes, he did go back and forth between Mexico and California, but nonetheless, he was born an American. 

So the immigrant story has really angered the Latino community.  

Victor Davis Hanson: Everything he said is untrue. He said he had nothing to do with losing, what, three hundred thousand people when he was [Health and Human Services Secretary]. He couldn’t even find them, right?

And then you don’t mention anything about your record or defend it. You have no idea what you want to do as governor. You can’t give an answer on high-speed rail. You can’t get [an answer] on the water bond we haven’t used. You don’t know about the homeless. You don’t know how to stop the fires. 

And then he, I guess he says, yeah, but people in California don’t vote for the people. They just look at their little ballot and they say D, and 60 to 65% of the state, so they punch it. And that means to them, the SEIU and the teachers union and all these people are gonna get me more money, whether I’m a government employee and I work for the state in some........
