California Gov. Gavin Newsom says he'd be 'lying' if he denied plans to consider a presidential run

California Gov. Gavin Newsom said on CBS News Sunday Morning he'd be 'lying' to deny weighing a presidential run, agreeing he'll give it serious thought after the midterms. The Democrat, term-limited in 2026, framed any campaign around finding a compelling 'why,' adding, 'Fate will determine that.' His remarks land as Democrats wrestle with low approval ratings and Republicans control the White House, House and Senate. Newsom has been a sharp critic of President Donald Trump, while other potential 2028 candidates, including Kamala Harris, who said 'Possibly,' signal their own openness.
