He could be the next best thing since slice bread but in todays social media age the republicans will maul him like they did Harris in this election.
The republicans know how to win elections and they use every trick in the book. They know how to get the message out there to stick in your mind.
And the only Dems that have effectively countered this are Newsom and Pete. Newsom rinsed De Santis in their debate. The Democrats are going to need to field their top orator to win. Maybe someone else emerges but right now that's Newsom.
Seeing these posts about Newsom is a little weird. I actually live in CA (I believe @oneniltothearsenal does as well). People here on both sides don't really like Newsom (from how he handled the pandemic to coming across as a phony douche). I guess a lot can change in 4 years, but I think he'd struggle on the national stage.
I live in Los Angeles at the moment as does Raoul I believe. Personally I haven't heard any criticism of Newsom outside the die hard conservatives that tried to recall him. Maybe its different in SF or SD?
