Part 4/12:
The dialogue takes a sharp turn towards the performance of local leaders in California, particularly the comparison between California Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass. Dominic expresses disbelief at their inability to respond effectively to these crises, contrasting them with a past incident involving Senator Ted Cruz. He implies that while Cruz faced backlash for his vacation during a Texas ice storm, the leaders currently in charge in California should face similar scrutiny, given their visible incompetence during disasters that directly affect their constituents.
