A stupid mistake, but he is owning up to it. Attending was a very bad example; admitting the error was a good example; not acknowledging the error until it was published is also a bad example. It apparently was a birthday party for a close, long-time friend. Surely it MUST have crossed his mind that he shouldn't go and that he'd get called out for it. Surely, whoever put this together knew this would be a problem.
Although he apologized, I'm sure his doing this will be cited tens of thousands of times across California as people decide whether to get together with someone. "What would Newsom do?"
Having this come out the day of California's travel advisory is his poor timing.
By the way, the 10 Bay Area Public Health Officers put out this press release regarding the holidays, travel, and potential get-togethers. Nothing detailed and nothing unexpected
