    , leading to this development,



    Newsom Leads Early 2028 Democratic Primary Polls


    The two latest polls from Emerson College and Politico/Citrin both put Newsom 6 points ahead of the next closest competitor in the Democratic primary.

    • In the Emerson poll, taken Aug. 4-5, Pete Buttigieg trailed Newsom 23% to 17%. Harris followed at 11%, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was next at 9%.
    • In the Politico poll, taken July 28-Aug. 12, Newsom led with 25%, while Harris, Buttigieg and Ocasio-Cortez trailed at 19%, 13%, and 10% respectively.
    Newsom's surge underscores how his combative stance against Trump is resonating with Democrats at home, giving him a potential edge over Kamal Harris in their shared political backyard.

    I don't know about the WH but Newsom's definetly got a career in television, if he wants one.

    Sadly, but it's just how it is: if Pete Buttegieg was straight and actual thoughts and ideas mattered to the general population, he'd be the next POTUS.

    Newsom and Rick Perry should have a hairdo showdown.

    Kamala Harris is so high up on those polls based solely off of name recognition

    she would have some nerve trying to run again in 2028

    she lost the 2024 election and then disappeared…she’s been MIA ever since

    Trump brought the National Guard to her state, and she was nowhere to be found…hardly said a damn thing

    this country is on its last legs, and she’s been a ghost…to just show up again out the blue when 2028 comes around would be laughable

    Gavin Newsom was dead in the water a few months ago, but has surged to the top because he’s not being a stereotypical weak and spineless do-nothing Democrat…he is treating this moment with the seriousness and urgency that it requires

    How many Dems would try to change California’s electoral map in response to what TX and governor hot wheels are doing? Most of them would’ve just talked about how they’re “concerned” and sit back and do nothing in the name of norms, civility, and respectability. They would’ve sat back and hoped the courts did something instead of taking action themselves.

    I wonder if Jon Stewart would throw his hat in the ring…I think he could win the nomination pretty easily, he would kill the primary debates

    Sydney Sweeney should run for mayor of LA, she would win cause she’s smarter than these dummies and she has great jeans

    From everything I've heard him say, he wants absolutely nothing to do with running for any office. He's brilliant and would probably be great.

    "The incredible people of Texas will have the opportunity to elect five more Republicans to Congress, thanks to the passage of their much more fair new Map — A BIG WIN for Republicans in Texas, and across the Country!" Trump wrote Thursday, after the map had passed in the state House.

    But now....

    "I think I'm going to be filing a lawsuit pretty soon, and I think we're going to be very successful in it," Trump said of Newsom's redistricting push during a lengthy press event in the Oval Office.

    "We're going to be filing it through the Department of Justice. That's going to happen," he said.

    What a freaking hypocrite Trump is.
