Like Trumps 1:44 minutes of rambling yesterday to say absolutely nothing of substance?

I hope you do not really think that about Newsome and think DJT speaks intelligently and on topic about anything.

Watch any interviews of both and rethink that.

I’m as MAGA as it gets but Gavin Newsome can easily beat Vance. They will cheat with ballots, White women will run to the polls to vote for him because he is “hot”, & he will say all the right things(lie).

Picture a debate between Vance & Newsome. Vance will destroy him on facts but the mainstream media will claim Newsome won the debate no matter what happens. Newsome will look better, he will sound better, & idiots will think he “cares” more. Do not laugh at this psychopath. He can win. Pray he doesn’t win because if he gets in this country is done.

I hear you, and you will not accept this, but it’s different.

It’s just different.

Soros publicly making his pick, they can probably skip the DNC primary at this point.

One would assume he'd be the likely candidate. From an analyst’s perspective, the assumption is Newsom stands out because he’s one of the few Democrats with national visibility, a strong fundraising base, and a communication style that can go toe-to-toe with Republicans. His media presence, debate skills, and large political operation make him a name strategist consistently flag as a potentially formidable general-election contender.

As an exercise of "what if" would be are there any other potential Democratic candidates that might be in their consideration:

People keep asking who else could actually make noise if Democrats ever opened up the field. A few names always come up.

Gretchen Whitmer keeps winning in Michigan, which is one of the states that decides everything.

Josh Shapiro crushed it in Pennsylvania and pulls support from all kinds of voters.

Andy Beshear is the surprise pick — a Democrat winning big in deep-red Kentucky gets attention fast.

And Pete Buttigieg still shows up thanks to his communication skills and national profile.

Not predictions — just the names analysts keep circling when they talk about who could be competitive if the party ever looked beyond the current lineup.

ent lineup.

I'm not doubting this, but why would they have stayed home in '24 with a chance to vote for a 'self described person of color' against Trump?


Nobody hates women more than other women, and she was annoying as frick by any metric. And also dumb.

I’m not talking about the blue hairs going out in droves. They’re already doing it. I’m talking about the political casual who doesn’t really watch the news but dislikes Trump and thinks his friends are mean and Gavin is cute.

Say hello to your next President.

White women think he's handsome so they will vote for him just on that.

That’s not how I remember it. I recall there were a few in the media close to the campaign who went heavy in PR recovery mode, but the networks themselves all conceded the loss. Van Jones was in tears over it on live TV.

I thought the media reaction was a coordinated & deliberate effort to push Joe out of the race, and it worked.

Unless hey cheat there is no way he wins PA AZ GA or NV or NC.
Very unlikely to win MI and WI.

They would play his econmic record in Cali over adn over and over.

I agree that he gets the nomination

He’s a dangerous politician. Very effective liar

Just wait till people in California have to wait in line for hours to get gas for their cars. I'm sure he'll try to blame Trump somehow, but between that and the state needing a bailout soon, that should disqualify him in 2028.

Anyone dismissing Newsome may need a reminder that Republicans haven't beat a man in a Presidential election since 2004. Just him being a white man will give him a boost.

Chaos and corruption is not an agenda.

I'm good, you need to be worried
