The Newsom vs DeSantis debate is a trial ballon.
If Newsom performs well, the Democrat machine will work to remove Joe Biden from the ballot and make way for Newsom. Top Democrat donors are already talking to “replacement candidates” per CNN, and Newsom is putting all the pieces in place. Yes, Joe Biden has officially announced his 2024 bid, but he’s yet to name a campaign finance director, hired any on-the-ground staff in swing states, or even opened a campaign headquarters.
Newsom likely runs.
