California Governor Gavin Newsom has been hinting at a presidential run for months. In a recent interview with CBS Sunday Morning's Robert Costa, Newsom admitted to giving "serious thought" to a White House bid.
"Yeah, I'd be lying otherwise,"
Newsom stated, adding that he cannot make a decision until after the 2026 midterms. The 58-year-old politician believes that if Democrats win in 2026, it could mark the end of a potential Trump presidency.
