With just days before the midterm elections, California Gov. Gavin Newsom said he is worried that a “red wave” will take place as Democrats continue to get “crushed” on their messaging.

“It goes to my fundamental grievance with my damn party,” Newsom said in an interview with CBS News that aired on Wednesday. “We’re getting crushed on narrative. We’re going to have to do better in terms of getting on the offense and stop being on the damn defense.”
