Totally agree about the USA and Democrats. Dr. Phil is that inhuman "Third Line", hating people in what Democrats and Republicans alike saw as the "right" ways. He's the worst type of monster, because he preys on the most vulnerable under the guise of "morality"; using his technically-valid title and the fame and money he has to exploit more kids for more fame and money.
It didn't start in the "90s". This is the way the USA - hell, Western Catholic civilization - has always been. Dr. Phil embodies the head of a "crisis pregnancy" center that guilt-trips a young woman seeking abortion; the leader of the gay-erasure teen retreat; the priest that tells a young boy to keep quiet; the hospital doctor that holds an unwilling patient under a "protection" law; the Karen who requests a "wellness check" on their neighbors of color; the prison medic who sterilizes an unconscious indigenous woman; the suburban moms shrieking "For The Children"; the dentist signing their patients up for a "Care Credit" card while they're under anesthesia. Cruelty under the guise of kindness; wiping its hands clean on the letter of the law.
I think USAmericans gotta hit the streets, now, yelling "We won't vote for Gruesome Newsom" just in case we do get a 2028 Election. If we don't destroy his campaign now, he'll be ushered to the front of the Democratic Primary like Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden.
