https://www.politico.com/news/2022/06/23/newsom-biden-white-house-2024-00041704The California governor leaped into the 2024 conversation at a high-water mark for himself and a particularly vulnerable time for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
For weeks, an exasperated Gavin Newsom warned Democrats they need to more aggressively confront Republicans in the national culture wars hes convinced his party is losing.

I'm just glad he is willing to show up and fight. We need more elected officials like him.

I just dont get that sense from him. California is a big complicated state and hes doing well by us.
Unless hes term-limited. Then all bets are off!

He follows through on what appears to be one of his ambitions.
