US EditionNewsom says he'll weigh White House bid after 2026 midterms
Newsom plans a 2028 presidential bid after 2026 midterms, raising his profile with aggressive tactics and redistricting efforts to add Democratic seats, officials said.
- Next year, California Gov. Gavin Newsom said he will consider running for the White House in 2028 after the midterm elections next year and said on CBS Sunday Morning, `I'd be lying otherwise`.
- Newsom's national playbook includes hosting cross-spectrum figures on his podcast and adopting a combative social media approach while leading California's redistricting and visiting red states.
- The governor's public clashes with Donald Trump have involved both policy fights over California National Guard deployment and sharp rhetoric calling him an `invasive species` in interviews and podcasts.
- Newsom's positioning could help carry swing states like Arizona and North Carolina, while Pete Buttigieg, former Transportation Secretary, J.B. Pritzker, Illinois governor, and Kamala Harris, former vice president, have not confirmed 2028 plans.
- Voting on Proposition 50 concludes Nov. 4, which Newsom links to the midterm fight, while his ongoing feud with Trump adds a persistent political backdrop.
