Friday’s episode of The Right Squad pulled no punches, crowning former Vice President Kamala Harris and California Governor Gavin Newsom as this week’s “Donkey of the Week” and rightly calling out their staged authenticity. Conservatives have watched for years as media-crafted personalities pose as leaders while offering little more than reheated talking points and phony empathy for hardworking Americans. When a mainstream conservative panel is forced to label them inauthentic, ordinary voters should take notice.
Kamala Harris has spent a lifetime inside Washington’s bubble, and her act of compassion rings hollow to millions who struggle to put food on the table and keep their communities safe. Her record in federal office and as a career politician is a roll call of liberal priorities that didn’t translate into meaningful results for families outside the Beltway. The Right Squad’s critique echoed a simple truth: authentic leadership is proven by outcomes, not optics.
Gavin Newsom’s slick TV moments and national posing mask the reality of California’s collapse under one-party rule, from runaway homelessness to deteriorating public safety and unaffordable housing. Yet he hawks himself as a savior for a nation that’s watching his state decline, proof positive that political ambition often outpaces responsibility. Conservatives see his candidacy as the ultimate theater of elites who preach competence while exporting failure.
The panel’s jab at “delusions of electability” is not mere snark; it’s a warning about the Left’s pattern of insisting on celebrity over substance. Democrats keep recycling the same coastal elites and expect the rest of America to fall in line because of name recognition alone. Voters are smarter than that — they want leaders who fight for them, not celebrities who read focus-group-approved lines.
Mainstream media and liberal donors have spent a fortune propping up these figures, but money and spin can’t paper over policy failures forever. Conservative commentators are right to demand accountability and to spotlight the contrast between glossy campaign trailers and the lives of ordinary Americans. If Republicans stay silent while the Left sells fairy tales, working families will keep paying the bill for broken promises.
This is the moment for conservatives to sharpen the contrast: expose the hollowness, offer real solutions, and remind voters what limited government and personal responsibility deliver. We need candidates who will restore law and order, bring fiscal sanity, and champion the family and faith that built this country. Calling out the inauthenticity of Harris and Newsom isn’t just commentary — it’s part of a fight to reclaim common sense governance.
Hardworking Americans deserve leaders who speak plainly, act decisively, and put country before career. The Right Squad did the job many in the mainstream press refuse to do, and patriots should keep the pressure on until Washington and Sacramento answer for their failures. If we stand together, the barking of media elites won’t drown out the will of the people.
