Gavin Newsom Teased Potential Presidential Run
Gavin Newson is one of the main contenders for Democrats in the 2028 presidential race.
The "Born Free" artist is known for his friendship with Trump, performing at several major events, including the 2024 Republican National Convention and at a rally pre-inauguration in January 2025.
Although the rocker or president has yet to respond to Newson's social media post, the California leader is known to take shots at Trump and is one of the main contenders for Democrats in the 2028 presidential race.
The businessman, who has held the post of California governor since 2019, teased in October that he was considering a run for office.
Gavin Newsom Addressed Potential Presidential Run
Gavin Newsom played coy when asked about possibly running for president.
“I have no idea,” Newsom dished. “The idea that a guy who got 960 on his SAT, that still struggles to read scripts, that was always in the back of the classroom, the idea that you would even throw that out is, in and of itself, extraordinary. Who the h--- knows?"
Newson confessed he'd "be lying otherwise" if he didn't say he was considering adding his name to the 2028 race, but wasn't certain if it would pan out in his favor.
He continued. "I’m looking forward to who presents themselves in 2028 and who meets that moment. That’s the question for the American people.”
