Newsom touts Prop 50, eyes 2028 run

In an interview with CBS Sunday Morning’s Robert Costa, California Gov. Gavin Newsom cast Democrats’ Proposition 50—a Nov. 4 ballot measure allowing redistricting next year—as vital to counter President Trump’s House push and to defend checks and balances. If it passes, Democrats could redraw California’s U.S. House map and seek up to five seats. Newsom said a Democratic House would effectively end Trump’s presidency, and warned of the opposite. He decried federal deployments, citing 43 lawsuits; highlighted a podcast engaging Trump allies amid a masculinity crisis; mocked Trump online; and said he’ll seriously weigh a 2028 bid after 2026.
