The poll comes as Newsom has taken a more aggressive position in standing up to President Donald Trump.

The poll indicates support for the more aggressive position Newsom has taken in standing up to Donald Trump, particularly over a plan by Republicans in Texas to redraw their state’s congressional seat map in the hopes of winning more seats in midterm elections next year.

The battle to become the 2028 presidential election candidate will likely set the new direction for the Democratic Party as it struggles with net favorability at what one recent poll showed to be a three-year low. Newsom has not formally announced his candidacy.

    FUCKING BRING IN ANOTHER CANDIDATE THEN.

    Jesus fuck… Y’all just constantly whine about your options, and when the time comes for the primary, you’ve got NOTHING.

      The only one whining is DNC fanboys when we tell them their establishment ghoul is going to lose them the election once again.

        LMFAO nobody here is a “DNC fanboy”. Even if I didn’t like Bernie Sanders, why would I be a “fan” of a caretaker organization that has very little actual power to do anything? I’m a fan of voting for the best available candidate whether primary or general elections.
