Newsom....

https://www.politico.com/news/2022/06/23/newsom-biden-white-house-2024-00041704


The 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 he’s convinced his party is losing.

In recent days, the California governor signaled to his team that, for now at least, what they’ve referred to internally as his “Paul Revere” phase has gone far enough. But the warnings turned a whisper campaign into something audible: Is the governor positioning himself for a White House run in 2024?

I just don’t get that sense from him. California is a big complicated state and he’s doing well by us.

Unless he’s term-limited. Then all bets are off!

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