This back-and-forth comes amid speculation that Newsom may run for president in 2028. Simultaneously occurring, Rogan&#8217;s show remains highly influential, having <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/natcon-2025-boasts-record-breaking-registrations\/\" title=\"Natcon 2025 boasts record...breaking registrations\">featured major political figures<\/a> during the 2024 election cycle.
