DeSantis is on board with a Newsom candidacy.
Trump seems to think he’s a swell guy.
Trump Shocks Tucker by Talking Up Friendly Relationship With Gavin Newsom
Newsom has been running for President for over a year. He has been crisscrossing the country giving speeches and meeting with Democrat power brokers. He has been traveling to red states he banned California government officials from visiting in order to assist Democrat candidates.
It is beginning to appear the elites are attempting to set up a 2024 presidential race between Newsome and DeSantis, much as they tried to set up a Hillary- Jeb Bush race in 2016. What remains to be seen is how they manipulate events to remove both Biden and Harris from the race. As far as Trump is concerned it is very apparent the plan is to convict him of a felony, send him to jail, and then have the blue states ban anyone convicted of a felony from appearing on the presidential ballot. Likely within the GOP the establishment Republicans are examining scenarios for the party to deny the nomination to anyone convicted of a felony and facing prison time or in prison.
