According to The San Jose Mercury News, the Trump Empire is looking to expand its rule from sea to shining sea, from the red sea of Florida to the red sea of … California?

Yes, there is talk among the MAGAs about Kimberly Guilfoyle returning to her home state of California to run for office. This is a bad idea because if anyone has seen pictures from the days Kimberly left California, she bears no discernible resemblance to the person who will be returning. No one will know her as anything except the girl that got fired on The Five and Don Jr.’s dancing queen. No California roots at all.

Californians will also remember that Trump and Don Jr. weren’t the only ones on the stage that January day urging the crowd to fight back harder. Kimberly was up at the microphone, too, screaming “Fight!” to the horde that went and did just that, trying to interrupt constitutional proceedings to install the man for whom Californians overwhelmingly voted. She put herself in front of California’s vote.

The report in Politico’s California Playbook didn’t specify which office she might seek. But the report raised the specter of a run against her now-ex, Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom, in 2022 or should he face a recall election.

LIVE on Pay Per View! Just kidding, we wouldn’t ask Kimberly to do anything in media, live, for money.

The Politico report came the same day that Guilfoyle, 51, returned to the political stage at the Conservative Political Action Conference Friday. The San Francisco native and former Fox News host did an extended version of what’s become known as her signature hip-shaking dance as she walked to the podium dancing in her signature style.

Everything Kimberly does is in her signature style.

“There’s a healthy love of capitalism and opportunity for free markets in this state, and it can transcend the social strife and political issues here,” Guilfoyle said at the time. The San Francisco native touted her Puerto Rican heritage to argue that Trump has fans in the state’s Latino community, while saying that many Californians feel oppressed by the dominant liberal political ideology.

No, the love for capitalism and free markets doesn’t necessarily “transcend” racism (“social strife”) and MAGA issues. Perhaps she loves Donald Trump but that hardly constitutes the Latino community, a community that generally perceives Trump to be the most anti-immigrant, anti-Latino president in the nation’s history.

Nothing about Kimberly is oppressed, so we have no idea to what she might be referring.

Regardless, we think she should come back and run against her ex. That would provide some real political theatre and she wouldn’t get within 20 points. If that.

Peace, y’all
