    This man is 58 years old. He remembers what he got on the SAT he took literally 40 years ago?

    And he’s also (proudly?) proclaiming that he can’t read while sitting next to a pile of books with his name on the cover, books that he ostensibly wrote.

    I don’t even understand the angle of these lies.

      Gavin Newsom is a nepo baby (literally Nancy Pelosi’s nephew), and American voters hate nepo-babies. So Gavin has used focus group triangulation to decide that talking about his bad grades in school is a good way to humanize himself. Newsom unironically thinks that telling the American people he can’t read will make them think “Wow, he’s just like me!”

      Newsom is literally just Trump but 10% less racist and more conventionally handsome. But when he tries to do the whole “I’m just a regular guy” thing like Trump, it just doesn’t work, because of how condescending Newsom is. Trump loves McDonalds, Newsom shops at Erewhon.

        The fact Biden effectively got away with that is the most insanity-inducing thing.

    It really is amazing how Dems are incapable of acting like normal human beings. That had the cadence of an alien wearing a human fleshsuit for the first time attempting to pass itself off as an awkward out of touch politician because acting normal was too far out of reach. what-the-hell

      It’s a little below average. But still embarrassing for a politician considering the advantages he had.

      1000 is average. The SAT consists of 2 tests, 800 points each, verbal & math. 1600 is perfect. 960 is not-good

        1000 is average

        Is it bell curved so that the median score is 1000, or is that the mean? Or is average here meaning ‘yeah it’s an okay score’?

        (Not from USA so not familiar with SATs, but they’re referenced v often so curious to know)

          median. it’s more or less normed to 1000. https://research.collegeboard.org/reports/sat-suite/understanding-scores/sat

          it’s not a good score. well worse than the average admit score for the worst US public colleges/universities. https://www.collegesimply.com/colleges/rank/public-colleges/highest-sat-scores/?page=11

    Somehow this motherfucker has surpassed even Panetta as CA’s most cartoonishly demonic politician in my lifetime. With I guess the exclusion of Reagan but that’s a fucking high bar to clear in terms of evil shit.
