California Gov. Gavin Newsom has finally started to notice some of California’s problems, now that he’s threatened by a recall election. But he still doesn’t seem to understand the state of the Golden State.

Newsom had a mini-meltdown when confronted with a question about the fading California dream. Newsom angrily rattled off some numbers about how great California’s economy is and, obviously preoccupied with comparisons to Texas and Florida, said that “everybody outside this state is b****ing about this state because of our success, and I’m proud of it.”
