Gavin Newsom (D-CA) is a man with a plan. The question is,\u200c what\u200b exactly\u200d is that plan?<\/p>\n<p>For years, rumors have swirled about Newsom&#8217;s presidential \u2062ambitions, with 2028 as\u2063 the supposed target.\u200d However, recent moves by\u2064 the California governor have sparked speculation that he may be preparing \u2062to make a run as early\u200d as next year, or at the very least, positioning himself for any unforeseen circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>According to \u200dDemocratic strategist \u2063Brad Bannon, Newsom is \u200dsimply doing\u2063 what any ambitious politician would do. \u2062&#8221;He&#8217;s putting himself\u2063 in position to \u2064run for president\u2062 if Biden doesn&#8217;t,&#8221; Bannon explained. &#8220;I think he wants to be president \u200bvery much. I don&#8217;t think \u200che would run \u2064against Biden.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Newsom, 55, has been steadily building a national \u2064profile. As the governor of California, the \u2062largest state in the nation, \u200bhe\u200d has campaigned \u2063and invested in ad space in other states, signaling\u2062 his larger aspirations.<\/p>\n<p>This week, Newsom is \u200dactively campaigning for President Joe Biden and the\u200b Democratic Party. With the second Republican presidential debate taking \u2062place in California,\u200b Newsom is taking the opportunity to provide\u2064 counterprogramming and protect his home \u200bturf.<\/p>\n<p>But it&#8217;s not just his campaign\u200c efforts that have caught people&#8217;s attention. Newsom&#8217;s\u2064 recent actions have raised eyebrows and added to the intrigue surrounding his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/big-sky-hypocrisy-newsom-vacations-in-state-he-put-on-no-travel-list\/\" title=\"Big Sky Hypocrisy: Newsom Vacations in State He Put on No-Travel List\">potential presidential bid<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For\u200b instance, he is scheduled to debate \u2064Gov.\u200c Ron DeSantis (R-FL), an actual 2024 \u2062candidate, in Georgia. This debate, \u2064moderated\u2063 by Sean\u2064 Hannity \u200con Fox News, \u200cwill\u200c give Newsom a chance to showcase\u2064 his skills on\u200c a national stage.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Newsom&#8217;s recent vetoes of bills related to\u200c gender identity and cooperation with federal\u200d immigration authorities\u2062 have been seen as attempts to appeal\u2062 to a\u200b broader audience beyond his liberal home state.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The governor of California is\u200c going\u200b to be automatically suspect to a lot of\u2062 moderates if\u200d he runs \u200bfor\u200b president,&#8221; Bannon noted. &#8220;And I think Newsom is a very smart politician.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While Newsom&#8217;s office did not \u200drespond to requests for comment, it&#8217;s clear \u200dthat he is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/steve-daines-reveals-why-party-isnt-getting-involved-in-picking-a-candidate-in-ohio\/\" title=\"Steve Daines explains party's hands-off approach to Ohio candidate selection.\">making strategic moves<\/a> to position himself for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/counting-down-the-worst-moments-of-the-medias-love-affair-with-michael-avenatti\/\" title=\"Counting Down The Worst Moments Of The Media\u2019s Love Affair With Michael Avenatti\">potential presidential run<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Challenges and Opportunities<\/h3>\n<p>Although Newsom\u2062 has expressed \u2064support for Biden and ruled out a \u200brun in 2024, the current president&#8217;s shaky position has opened up possibilities for\u2062 the California governor.<\/p>\n<p>A recent Washington \u2063Post-ABC \u200cNews poll showed Biden\u2064 trailing former \u200bPresident Donald Trump by 10 points\u2063 among registered voters. This, along \u200dwith Biden&#8217;s consistently\u200b low approval ratings, has raised\u2064 concerns about \u2062his age\u200b and fitness for the role.<\/p>\n<p>Reports of age-related controversies, such \u2063as repeating stories and wearing sneakers to avoid falling, have \u2064further fueled doubts about Biden&#8217;s ability to serve \u200da second \u2062term. A CBS News-YouGov poll revealed that only \u206234% of \u2062voters believe Biden would make it to the end\u2064 of a second\u200d term.<\/p>\n<p>All of this indicates \u2063vulnerability for the incumbent \u200bpresident. In the event of any \u2062unforeseen circumstances, Newsom would be\u200d well-positioned to step \u2062in.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Newsom is\u2062 not the first California governor\u200d to try and position himself \u2062for a presidential run.\u200c It\u2019s\u200d not \u200csurprising,&#8221; said Jeff Cummins, a professor at California State University, \u200cFresno. &#8220;As\u2063 far as aligning himself for the\u200c Plan B in \u200d2024, I\u200b don\u2019t think it hurts him\u2063 to do \u2064that. It\u2019s what he wants to do in 2028 anyway, so you might as well go through the \u200dmotions\u2062 and start \u200cto modify your policy positions the way\u200c he is.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>However, Cummins believes that Newsom&#8217;s best shot at the presidency is in 2028. \u200b&#8221;I don&#8217;t\u2064 see\u200b Biden stepping down at all,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, Newsom \u2064may face\u200b a significant obstacle in Vice President Kamala\u200c Harris. \u2063As a fellow Californian and\u200b the first female, \u2064black, and Asian vice president, Harris&#8217;s presence could complicate Newsom&#8217;s\u2063 path to the presidency. However, her approval ratings are currently low, and her ability to connect with\u2062 Democratic voters is waning.<\/p>\n<p>Newsom&#8217;s rumored status as a backup candidate for 2024 has reportedly upset Team Harris, as it could potentially overshadow \u200dher role as vice president. Nevertheless, Newsom has publicly \u2064praised Harris and expressed his support for her remaining as Biden&#8217;s vice president.<\/p>\n<p>With relatively healthy \u200bapproval ratings in his home state and a steadily \u2062rising national profile,\u2062 it&#8217;s only a matter of time before the rumors of Newsom&#8217;s presidential ambitions are\u2063 confirmed, according \u2063to Republican strategist John Feehery.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It \u200bwill\u200d either be\u2064 in\u200c 2024 or 2028, but either way, he is running for\u2064 president,&#8221; Feehery predicted.\u200c &#8220;And he has to guard against\u200d the charge \u200bthat he will do to the U.S. what he did to California, hence the tack\u200d to the center.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As \u200bNewsom continues to make strategic moves and position himself for the future, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/newsom-draws-contrasts-with-biden-as-he-leads-democratic-debate-counterprogramming\/\" title=\"Newsom highlights differences with Biden during Democratic debate counterprogramming.\">political landscape remains dynamic<\/a> and full of possibilities.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> What progressive policies and stances\u2064 on issues\u200b has Newsom implemented to resonate with American voters?<\/h2>\n<p><span>  In and fill the void. As a younger and more energetic candidate, he could \u2064present himself as the fresh face\u200b and dynamic leader \u2062that the country needs.<\/p>\n<p>Newsom&#8217;s progressive policies and strong stance on issues such as climate change and healthcare have resonated with many Americans. His leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic, although not without controversy, has\u200d also gained attention \u2064and drawn both \u200bpraise and criticism.<\/p>\n<p>However, Newsom \u2063will\u200c face challenges in his potential presidential\u2062 bid. As the\u2063 governor of \u200cCalifornia,\u200d a\u200b state known \u200cfor its liberal politics,\u2063 he may struggle to appeal to more moderate voters in swing states. His vetoes of bills related to gender identity \u200band cooperation with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/soros-backed-philadelphia-da-considered-helping-non-citizens-accused-of-rape-murder-avoid-deportation-records-show\/\" title=\"Soros-Backed Philadelphia DA Considered Helping Non-Citizens Accused Of Rape, Murder Avoid Deportation, Records Show\">federal immigration authorities<\/a> could also \u2063be\u2062 used against him by opponents.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the Democratic Party is a crowded field with many potential contenders for the presidency. Newsom will need to stand out from \u2063the competition and differentiate himself to gain the\u200d support and \u200bmomentum necessary for a successful\u2064 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, Gavin Newsom is a politician \u2064on the rise, positioning\u200b himself \u200cfor a potential presidential run in the near future. \u200cWith his national profile and strategic\u2062 moves, he has set himself up as a strong contender within the Democratic Party. However, he will face challenges in\u2062 appealing to a broad base of voters and \u200dnavigating a crowded\u200b field of\u2063 candidates.\u2064 Only time will tell if Newsom&#8217;s ambitions will come\u200c to\u200d fruition, but \u2062he is certainly a force to\u200b be \u2064reckoned with in \u200dthe world of politics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gov.
