Let’s go Ron!

Gavin Newsome thinks he can beat him. He slanders Desantis every chance he gets.

Why would Gavin Newsome run against Ron DeSantis?

It looks like Newsome is running for president in 2024? I can't stand him. I doubt a recalled governor would stand much of a chance, but who knows.

I think he assumes they both have good chances to with their respective presidential primaries. Nothing like looking way ahead.

In my opinion, Newsome took himself out of having any chance for a Presidential bid when he mandated the Covid vaccine for students from Kindergarten to 12th grade. The only other state to do this is Louisiana but parents can opt-out in that state.

Some school districts in California have made excuses and tried to delay it, and may try to fight it,but nevertheless, it makes Newsome look like a total crackpot. Of course, the fact that he told everyone to stay home, social distance, and mask up then was seen having dinner with a bunch of his rich friends also hurt him, but the vax mandate is extreme, even for California.

I honestly used to think he was a bright guy but the vax mandate for children shows that he isn't.

Yet he will easily win re-election in November. I agree that he is unfit to run for POTUS based on his decisions as governor, but there is a large segment of the population that has embraced his actions.

I would think just pointing out the exodus of citizens from Cali to anywhere else would sink a politician in normal times. But I guess if the Media shield is solid enough, anything can happen and probably will.

But they have enough people flooding in from the south to keep the population of the state pretty level.

All they care about is he's pretty to look at.

He is no doubt a powerful threat to the Democratic party.

Expect a big time op as soon as he decides to run for POTUS.

Gov. Newsom crushed his main opponent in the special recall vote. Plus, he's fairly young relative to other politicians and can probably persuade a lot of dumb voters on his looks alone.

Put Newsom against someone old, and his chances probably improve by a lot.

Newsom is scum, but there are millions here who think Newsom has done a great job. I wouldn't discount his chances if he ran for President.

But will he challenge Trump if he decides to run? I'm thinking no, he'll wait his turn.
