He could oppose Kamala Harris, who has cast doubt on a possible candidacy for the next US presidential election. The Democratic governor of California, Gavin Newsom, admits, in an interview with CBS News broadcast this Sunday, October 26, that he is also thinking about being a candidate for these elections scheduled for 2028.
When asked if he would “seriously think” about running for president once the 2026 midterm elections are over, he responded affirmatively. “I would be lying if I said otherwise. […] and I can’t lie.”
“Destiny will decide”
Gavin Newsom, one of Donald Trump’s main opponents, will be governor of California until January 2027, and not after. This would be impossible due to term limits. According to him, the rest of his political career will be decided in several years. Regarding the presidential elections, he believes that “destiny will decide.”
Gavin Newsom also said that the fact that some were talking about his run for president, even though he had faced difficulties throughout his life, including dyslexia, reminded him that life can sometimes take surprising directions.
Great supporter of Joe Biden
“The idea that a man who always had difficulty reading scripts, who always sat at the back of the class, and the very idea that you could consider that [l’élection présidentielle] “It is, in itself, extraordinary,” he said, adding: “I can’t wait to see who will run in 2028 and who will rise to the occasion. That’s the question Americans are asking.”
Gavin Newsom was a strong supporter of Joe Biden. When some doubted his candidacy and even just before he withdrew from the race, he continued to follow him. According to CBS, the former US president and the governor of California remain very close.
