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.

    It’s literally not what I’m saying. I also never said that one party wasn’t better than the other. You are the one claiming that we’re waiting for a “perfect” candidate, I’m saying that we just want someone that isn’t a monster, and the Dems refuse to deliver on that.

    If they would stop supporting the facists, and stop handing the elections over to them, we’d have better options. But they’d rather lose and keep supporting facists, than allow the voters to pick someone that isn’t a monster.
