After lawmakers sent Brown a bill requiring presidential candidates to release five years of their tax returns in order to secure a place on California's general-election ballot, he seemed peeved.
Last month Newsom signed Senate Bill 27, to require those tax returns - something that made him king of the Trump resistance, but undermined his reputation in Sacramento.
Its author wondered what Democrats will say if states dominated by Republicans try a similar stunt to keep Democratic candidates off the ballot.
The editorial's most striking point, and one made by a number of California observers, is that the state has significant problems that should presumably garner the governor's full attention.
To provide a sense of the public-employee problem, consider the recent Bee article noting that "More than 1,000 public pensions in California are so big they exceed IRS limits." Go figure why municipalities are running out of money.
California's Democratic leaders seem most interested in seeing who can get the most attention as leader of that Trump resistance.
California has sued the Trump administration 50 times over various federal policies.
