California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) is poised to become the “leader of the resistance” to President-elect Donald Trump as he finishes his second and final term in office, and sets his sights on a possible presidential run in 2028.
That’s the view of Republican strategist Rob Stutzman, a former aide to California’s last Republican governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, who endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris.
The San Francisco Chronicle reported:
“He gets not only a lifeline to his career that was facing a dead end, but he will be able to position himself as the leader of the resistance,” Stutzman said.
Harris’ loss means Newsom will once again be a leading national figure for the party. It also likely makes him a leading candidate for president in 2028.
Newsom appeared to embrace his newfound position as a prospective resistance leader in a statement Wednesday.
“California will seek to work with the incoming president — but let there be no mistake, we intend to stand with states across our nation to defend our Constitution and uphold the rule of law,” he said.
