Newsom can’t win middle America. He’s seen as “Arrogant California Elite” outside the coasts. He’s a great candidate on paper and did amazing things for Cali even if there’s this he did I was infuriated by. But outside the coasts his image is sullied by his political history as a California governor.
Additionally, Newsom is not running and wouldn’t even think of running unless Biden dropped out, which isn’t going to happen unless he has a tragic health event.
The people who think things like ‘arrogant california elite’ are probably never voting for a Democrat anyway. Newsom is well spoken, sharp, and fairly young. He can defend his positions quite well, and for better or worse is pretty slick. But yes, he’s not willing to challenge Biden. I thought the pretext here was who would run if Biden did drop out or couldn’t run for whatever reason.
