To paraphrase Jan Brady of the Brady Bunch, lately it’s been “Newsom, Newsom, Newsom” all day long.
He’s been at the Vatican for a climate summit, and in Alpharetta, Georgia, for a televised debate with Florida governor Ron DeSantis. He’s all over the TV, actually – on Fox News and MSNBC, and in advertisements airing in Tennessee.
And ever since Joe Biden’s catastrophic performance at the first presidential debate on CNN, his name has popped up in nearly every list of possible successors. With just four months to go until the presidential election, chances that the president would step aside now are exceedingly remote – but that hasn’t stopped the speculation. Online political betting odds that Gavin Newsom, the California governor, would end up at the top of the presidential ticket this year tripled to a one-in-four chance last week.
For the ambitious governor of the most populous US state, this crowning moment has been a long time in the making. For years, Newsom’s flair for a photo op and steady pursuit of network news spots have fueled speculation about his presidential ambitions, and sparked scepticism among constituents who’d rather he stick to his day job.
Now, it seems, the man who has spent the last several years seeking a national stage has finally found himself at the centre of one.
“I think it’s been clear that he’s been waiting in the wings for some time,” said Emily Hoeven, an opinion columnist at the San Francisco Chronicle and politics reporter who has followed Newsom’s career closely. “But I think that now there is a far bigger opening for him than there ever has been.”

So he may wait until 2028.
If they can get Kamala out of the way, then Michelle is an ideal candidate.
She re-secures the black vote that was trending toward Trump.
She cements the female vote.
She is politically unknown, so they can create whatever image for her they want.
She does not have to do anything (Biden set the precedent0 just read from a teleprompter once in a while and get treated like a queen at state dinners
Barack can continue to run the White House as First Man. He can be out in the open.
Uh . . . Not on *everyone’s*
Don’t Californicate America!
They will mitigate that by naming Maxine Waters as his VP. With the steal in place, they can afford to forego the CA electoral votes.
Like the case with Kamala, almost a bullet-proof backup.
He’d best keep a sharp eye out for H->!.
I hear she’s a killer.
Reagan = matter.
Newson = antimatter.....he must remain in his self-made chiphole!
Loathsome has a stellar record to run on too
I was gonna say, move Newsom ahead of Herr Hillary?
Wave goodbye to Newsom ..........
Never happen. He might be the V.P., because this is going to Kamala. They’ll scream “RACE RACE RACE” until the election. Half the White people in this country will get scared of riots if she loses and curl into the fetal position and either elect her or simply just not vote. They got “whitey” on the run bad and they know it.
It all comes down to the Media’s choice. They are the ones in charge of his coming ascension. They are the best when it comes to turning the worst into the best and the best into the worst.
The way things are going, it looks like Trump’s best chance of victory will be that the 2000 mules won’t know who they’re supposed to manufacture votes for this time.
Black women will just be thrilled that dems want a white man to take Biden’s place - - and not Kamala.
But what else would you expect from the Party of Slavery and Infanticide?
....it’s AMAZING..... but no bigger retard, moron, idiot, loser than Newsom is breathing air on this earth but that does not matter to the MARXIST DEMOCRATS.
Consider the source.....The Guardian - hard core left wing publication.
[[Gavin Newsom’s name is on everyone’s lips]]
Were? Certainly not in ANY sane circles
Ha!
However, the R campaign might just broadcast her hate america rant —
NEWSOM is as SLEAZY as anything can be.
YOU are correct.
