During a speech in Iowa, Fetterman said Newsom is “running for president right now” but doesn’t have the “guts to announce it.”
“There are two additional Democrats running for Pennsylvania, excuse me, running for president right now,” said Fetterman, who acknowledged that he still has lingering speech issues after he had a stroke in 2022. “One is a congressman from Minnesota, the other one is the governor of California, but only one has the guts to announce it.”
Fetterman isn’t the only political figure to have recently accused Newsom of making a bid for the White House while in Iowa. Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy said in Iowa City last month, “The man is running for president, doing it and doing it in disguise, doing it with a track record at a state that is more disastrous by the day.”

Even a little scrutiny will cause Newsom's campaign-in-waiting to quickly collapse.
Newsom has more skeletons in his closet than Jeffrey Dahmer.

Remember that one time when he had an affair with his best friend and campaign managers wife behind his back? What kind of man does that? Lots of men are guilty of having affairs, but with your best friends wife?

He doesn’t have a lot of time to get on the ballot in many states!!
The window is about 30 more days.

I want Gavin to run for personal reasons. I need something to watch on TV next year.
Watching dems fight for the nomination would be an E ticket ride.
@P4rtyBear8mos8MO
That was never the plan.. the DNC will backdoor him at the 11thj hour avoiding any risk or exposure to campaign and taking the choice out of its voters hands inserting their puppet.
I hope im wrong, but it looks so obvious.
@SugaryH0u5e8mos8MO
They already have a puppet. His name is Joe Biden.
@H0u5eMaria8mos8MO
true, allow me to rephrase.. and enthusiastic puppet that actually wants the agenda versus one ignorant of how hes being used.

Whichever version of Fetterman said this, give the man his due - he's 100% right about this. We're now a year away, well within the range of a "normal" election cycle. Either admit what you're up to, Gavin, or take a seat already!
